Blonding
Rated 5.0 from 40+ Google reviews. Here is what clients are saying about their blonding experience at IlonaR Style in Marina del Rey.
The length of your appointment depends on the specific service, your starting hair color, and the level of lift required. A partial highlight may take around 1.5 to 2 hours, while a full balayage or bleach and tone can take 3 to 4 hours or more. Complex color corrections may require multiple sessions. During your consultation, Ilona will give you an accurate time estimate based on your hair and goals.
Pricing varies depending on the technique chosen, your hair length, thickness, and the complexity of the work involved. Partial highlights are typically more affordable than full balayage or color correction services. Ilona provides a clear, transparent quote during your consultation before any work begins, so there are no unexpected costs. Contact us or book a consultation to get a personalized price estimate.
The longevity of your blonding result depends on the technique used and how you care for your hair at home. Balayage and baby lights are known for their seamless grow-out, often lasting 3 to 5 months between appointments. Foil highlights and bleach and tone services may require touch-ups every 6 to 10 weeks. Ilona will recommend a maintenance plan tailored to keep your blonde looking fresh and vibrant.
Arrive with clean, dry hair that has not been freshly washed that same morning, as a small amount of natural oil can help protect the scalp during the lightening process. Avoid using heavy styling products or dry shampoo before your visit. Bring inspiration photos so Ilona can understand the blonde tones you love. Be ready to discuss your hair history, including any previous color treatments or chemical services, so the best approach can be determined for your hair.
This depends entirely on your starting hair color and the blonde goal you have in mind. Clients with lighter natural hair often achieve their desired blonde in a single visit. Those with darker or previously colored hair may need more than one session to safely reach their target tone without compromising hair health. Ilona will be completely honest with you during the consultation and always prioritizes the health of your hair over rushing a result.
