How Much Does Hair Color Cost? (What Goes Into the Price)
Hair Guide · Scottsdale, Arizona
Quick answer: Color pricing depends mostly on the service (toner, root retouch, all-over color, partial or full highlight, balayage, color correction), your hair's length and thickness, and how much time it takes. You'll see the price for each service when you book online at The Hair Lounge.
From smallest to biggest appointments
- Toner / gloss
- Root retouch
- Mini foil
- All-over color
- Partial highlight
- Full highlight / balayage
- Lowlight + highlight
- Color correction (consultation first)
Ways to keep color costs down over time
- Choose lived-in balayage for fewer appointments
- Alternate a full highlight with a mini foil or toner
- Protect toner from sun, chlorine and hard water so it lasts
- Avoid box dye, which often leads to color correction
