Everything You Want to Know
A few things to know before your appointment
Where are you located?
I’m based in Beavercreek, Ohio at AltaRd Salon and serve clients from Dayton, Fairborn, Centerville, and surrounding areas. You’ll receive full location details after booking your appointment.
How do I book an appointment?
You can book directly online through my booking link. If you’re unsure what to book, feel free to reach out or schedule a consultation so we can choose the best service for you.
What if I don’t know what service to book?
No stress at all, that’s super common. If you’re unsure, book a consultation or choose a service that feels closest to what you want and we can adjust as needed when you arrive.
BLONDING QUESTIONS
What is a lived-in blonde?
A lived-in blonde is a softer, more blended approach to blonding that grows out seamlessly without harsh lines. It’s perfect if you want a low-maintenance blonde that still looks bright and dimensional.
How often will I need to maintain my blonde?
Most clients come in every 8–12 weeks depending on how bright they like their blonde. Some clients also come in between for glossing to keep their tone fresh.
Can I go blonde in one appointment?
It depends on your starting point and the health of your hair. I’ll always prioritize maintaining the integrity of your hair and will create a plan to get you to your goal safely.
EXTENSION QUESTIONS
Do I need a consultation for extensions?
Yes, every extension service starts with a consultation. This allows us to choose the best method, match your color perfectly, and go over pricing and maintenance.
How long do extensions last?
With proper care, extension hair can last up to a year. Move-up appointments are typically every 6–8 weeks to maintain placement and keep everything looking seamless.
Will extensions damage my hair?
When installed and maintained properly, extensions should not damage your natural hair. I focus on safe, customized installs and will guide you on proper at-home care.
GRAY BLENDING QUESTIONS
What is the difference between gray coverage and gray blending?
Gray coverage is designed to fully cover gray hair, while gray blending softens and diffuses gray using dimension for a more natural, low-maintenance result.
How often will I need to maintain gray coverage?
This depends on your desired look. Full coverage clients typically return every 4–6 weeks, while blending clients can often go longer between appointments.
Will my gray still show with blending?
Yes, but in a softer, more natural way. The goal is to make regrowth less noticeable rather than completely cover it.
