Color that stays cool, bright, and shiny between visits.
Your blonde has gone brassy or yellow and looks dull. A gloss and toner neutralizes the tone and brings shine back. Start with a free consultation for your exact price, and if toner is not the fix, we will tell you.
Brass-free, fresh-looking color in about an hour. A 45 to 60 minute treatment, from $45, that strips the yellow and restores the shine between full color.
Think of it as a tune-up for your color – extending the life of your balayage, keeping your highlights cool and bright, or simply adding richness and dimension to your natural shade. Quick, affordable, and transformative.

Gloss & Toner Questions
Will a gloss or toner damage my hair?
No. Gloss and toner work on the surface of the hair, smoothing the cuticle and adding a protective layer. Unlike permanent color, they barely open the cuticle. Most clients say hair feels softer after a gloss. It is one of the gentlest color services we offer.
I’m tired of my brassy, yellow blonde. Will a toner fix it?
In most cases, yes. Neutralizing brass is exactly what toners do best. We use color theory to pick the right shade. Purple-based toner cancels yellow; blue-based cancels orange. If the brass is everywhere or runs deep, you may need color correction. We will tell you honestly at your consultation.
How long does a gloss treatment last?
Results last 4 to 6 weeks, fading gradually. Longevity depends on how often you wash and which products you use. Sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo extends it. Many clients book a gloss midway between color visits.
How much does it cost?
A gloss and toner treatment starts at $45. It is one of our most affordable services with one of the clearest results. We recommend a gloss, toner, or combination that fits your goal. You get your exact quote at your free consultation.
Can I get one on natural, uncolored hair?
Yes, and it is increasingly popular. A clear gloss adds shine without changing your color. A tinted gloss can add richness to brunettes or warmth to redheads. Several clients come in quarterly just for that shine.
How does it fit my color maintenance schedule?
Think of gloss and toner as the service between services. If you get balayage every 12 to 16 weeks, a gloss at week 6 to 8 keeps it fresh. If highlights go brassy early, a toner midway solves it. Many clients alternate visits so color always looks freshly done.
