Highlights & balayage in Adelaide, at a glance
Foils, babylights and balayage are different techniques for different results, and the maintenance they need varies enormously. Deciding how often you are willing to sit in a chair is as important as choosing the shade.

What to look for
- Balayage grows out softly and can be left for three to four months. Foils give more lift but show regrowth sooner.
- Ask to see work on hair that started the same colour as yours, not just the finished blondes.
- Toner is what makes blonde look expensive. Check whether it is included in the price.
- If your hair has been coloured before, expect a consultation first. Anyone who skips it is guessing.

Common questions
- How much do highlights cost in Melbourne?
- A half head of foils typically runs $175 to $290 depending on the salon, and a full head $230 to $370. Balayage usually sits between $240 and $330. Toner is sometimes included and sometimes charged separately, so it is worth confirming.
- How long does a colour appointment take?
- Budget two and a half hours for a half head, three to four for a full head or balayage, and most of a day for a significant change or correction.
- Can I go blonde in one appointment?
- It depends entirely on what is already on your hair. Virgin dark hair can often be lifted meaningfully in one long session; box-dyed or previously coloured hair frequently needs two or three, spaced weeks apart, to get there without damage.
