904 Balayage was built by founder and lead stylist Caroline Alexander around the idea that a stylist should plan a client's hair before the appointment starts. The salon describes itself as Jacksonville's balayage and hair color specialists.

A visit starts with a consultation. Clients can use an online form if they are unsure which service to book, and the team reads each form before the appointment and builds a color plan before the client sits down. Balayage and color are quoted after the consultation, based on starting color, hair length and the technique needed, and clients see a clear price before any color is mixed.
The salon designs color to grow out gradually. Clients usually return about three times a year rather than every six weeks, and soft balayage typically lasts three to five months between full appointments. For a refresh in between, a gloss or toner is suggested every six to ten weeks. The team will not carry out a service that would grow out poorly, such as one with a harsh line or over-processing. The technique is matched to the result a client shows in an inspiration photo, with hand-painting or foils chosen as needed; foils give controlled lift, often with a balayage-inspired finish. High-lift color is only considered on virgin hair after an in-person assessment, and tone-only or corrective work follows its own plan and needs an appointment recommendation before booking.
Blonding and lightening services include a K18 treatment at no extra charge. Home care is built around DAVINES products, chosen for each client's tone and condition, and the salon advises washing less often with cooler water, a sulfate-free shampoo and a purple or blue toning shampoo about once a month. Clarifying treatments every few weeks are suggested to clear mineral buildup from local water and pool chlorine. Gray work includes gray blending, gray coverage and a multi-appointment gray transformation with customized glosses, strategic cutting and an at-home plan, and extensions are installed with K-Tip or sew-in weft methods and come with a 12-month hair guarantee.
The salon plans color around how it will grow out and how often a client wants to visit. A consultation decides whether a service suits the client's starting point or needs a staged or corrective plan.
