Eric

Eric is a stylist at Swing, offering a range of cuts, color and treatments. He does short haircuts for hair above the earlobes, with wash and style ($60, 45 minutes), and medium to long cuts for hair ending below the earlobes ($70, one hour). His clipper work includes buzz cuts and fade touch-ups across the full head or just the sides and back, with wash and rinse ($35, one hour). Beard trims take about 20 minutes, priced variably. Maintenance cleanup around the ears and neck, or bang and fringe trims, take five minutes or more and are free for existing clients. For color, Eric offers a 10-minute gray blending add-on for very short cuts ($20, 15 minutes) that fades out by the next haircut. He also does all-over permanent color for gray coverage and regrowth touch-ups ($85, 1 hour 30 minutes), with a product surcharge for significantly longer hair. Partial foil highlights cover the top section and face-framing hair (price varies, 1 hour 10 minutes or more), and full foil highlights are also available (price varies, 1 hour 40 minutes or more). Lightening often calls for toner afterward. Bleach and tone is done in at least two steps ($165, 2 hours 20 minutes). Clients who were last bleached and toned no more than five weeks ago can book a bleach and tone retouch ($135, 2 hours); those with more regrowth book a full bleach and tone. He also offers demi-permanent non-ammonia color or toner that adds shine and lasts about 26 washes ($50, 45 minutes). Treatments include a two-step conditioning service using John Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Keraplex and Wild Ginger Intensive Treatment ($45, 35 minutes). Keratin smoothing, also known as a Brazilian Blowout, is a demi-permanent smoothing treatment that averages $220 and varies with hair density and length, taking about two hours.
