Blonde hair in Melbourne, at a glance

Blonde depends on technique more than any other colour: how far hair can be lightened safely, how evenly, and how it is toned afterwards. A colourist who does blondes every day is often the difference between bright and brassy.

Most start between
$45–$70
Open past 7pm

What to look for

  • A bond-building treatment used during lightening, especially for platinum or a big change.
  • An honest estimate of how many sessions it will take. Dark to very light is often staged over two or more appointments.
  • Toner included and explained, with advice on how often to tone again and what to use at home.
  • Photos of blondes on hair like yours, not only finished results on hair that was light to begin with.

How much do highlights and balayage cost in Australia? Half of what Australian businesses publish sits between $130 and $280.

Common questions

How often does blonde need toning?
Toner fades with washing, usually over four to eight weeks. Many people book a short toner or gloss between lightening appointments to stop the shade turning brassy or yellow.
Can dark hair go platinum?
Often, but rarely in one sitting, and not always safely. It depends on the condition of the hair and any colour already on it. A good colourist will test a strand first and tell you where to stop.
