Blonde Mane Kate

The salon is located inside Salon Nouveau on NE Imbrie Drive in Hillsboro, and it is open Monday through Thursday, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.

Color is the core of the menu. Custom blonding can be softened into a lived-in look or pushed brighter and bolder, with the level of maintenance set to match the client. Dimensional brunettes add depth and soft dimension, while all over color gives one solid shade from roots to ends. Grey coverage and root touch-ups are designed for single-process color rather than highlights or blonding. Some color transformations may take more than one appointment.

Before any color service, the salon takes a customized approach. Clients who are unsure what they want can book a consultation to get a plan. Inspiration photos are welcome, but the salon notes that results depend on hair history, natural level, condition and previous color work. Keratin smoothing is offered for softer, more manageable hair that is easier to style, and haircuts run from chin length to longer styles shaped around the client's hair and routine. Blowouts give a smooth, styled finish for an event or a good hair day.

The salon describes its space as relaxed, welcoming and judgement-free. It also describes its experience as a luxury one from start to finish.

Each service is shaped around the client's hair, daily life and the upkeep they are willing to do, with a consultation available for anyone who needs help choosing a direction.
