About

Blu August Salon is at 336A North Coast Highway 101 in Encinitas. Visits are booked by appointment, with weekday hours from 9am to 7pm and Saturday hours from 9am to 6pm. The salon can be reached at (760) 532-8900.

Color is a core part of the menu. Options include full and partial highlights, a mohawk-style partial highlight, crown highlights, balayage and partial balayage, toners, root touch-ups, and color correction. Color correction and some other services are priced per hour, while others start at a set price.

Extensions are offered in many different methods. Invisi-Tab extensions are attached with surgical-grade tape and typically stay in for about two months before being moved up. They can add length or volume, fill in thinning areas, or add highlight-style dimension. HaloCouture extensions are fitted with a wire shaped to the head, with no weaving, clips or glue, and clients can put them in and take them out at home. The salon states that HaloCouture will not damage hair.

Permanent straightening is a specialty. The salon offers YUKO permanent straightening for the whole head or as a re-touch, along with perms and an anti-frizz treatment by YUKO. After a YUKO service, hair is finger-dried by hand with a blow dryer rather than a round brush, and sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner are recommended for aftercare. The salon describes YUKO as a U.S.-patented Japanese straightening method and a leading brand of chemical straightening.

Haircuts are available for all genders and for children, including kids over 12 with or without a blow-dry. Styling options include shampoo and blow-dry services, deep conditioning, and up-dos. Make-up and wedding hair can be done in the salon or on-site. The salon works with Goldwell, HaloCouture, Invisi-Tab, YUKO, Kevin Murphy and Alpaparf Milano products.
