About

The studio is built around color work. The business says most of its clients come in for lived-in or dimensional blonding or brunette services, and it serves two main groups: people who want dimensional color that holds up for months, and people who want their roots refreshed between full appointments.

The colorist reports completing a two-year color specialty certification and describes that training as uncommon on the peninsula. The business also says the colorist travels throughout the year to train with well-known colorists, so techniques stay current.

Visits are set around the color goal. A free consultation, offered by phone or in person, covers hair goals and which services fit. Color services include a wash and blowdry. Hand-painted balayage is done in the open air without foil, and highlight placement is chosen to suit the client, from a partial pattern framing the face to an all-over blonding.

Keratin K-tip extensions are also offered. They add length, volume, or both using individual strands of real hair. Application takes two to five hours and starts with a conversation about lifestyle, aftercare, and the result the client wants. The business uses Line One Hair Extensions and says the method is low tension, which suits finer hair. Bonds generally last about three to four months with proper home care. Extensions do not include move-ups, so re-application requires a new set of hair, and the studio does not install hair that clients bring in.

The studio is open Wednesday through Friday from 9 AM to 8 PM and is closed Saturday through Tuesday. Clients can reach the studio at hairbyemilyseva@yahoo.com, and the business says it replies within 24 hours.

Color is planned around the look a client wants to live with between visits, with an emphasis on natural-looking dimension and low maintenance.
