About

The studio sits in a private suite on Homberg Drive and says it serves downtown Knoxville, Bearden, the UT campus area, West Knoxville and Farragut. The salon calls itself a balayage and blonding destination in Knoxville, and it describes its atmosphere as warm and welcoming, with a relaxed, one-on-one visit. Appointments are required and the salon is open Tuesday through Saturday from 9 AM to 5 PM.

Blonding and color are priced by the hour, so the final cost depends on hair condition, length, density and the treatments used. Customized Color starts at $240 and takes about three hours, with the shade matched to each client. Customized Color with Cut starts at $280 and takes about three and a half hours, combining color with a precision cut. Color Touch-Up is $80 for about an hour and suits guests with an established base color and no more than two inches of regrowth; it does not include lightening. Blonding visits include a consultation, shampoo and conditioning, a blowdry and styling, and at-home care guidance.

Keratin smoothing uses Keratin Complex formulas. The Curl Enhancing Keratin Treatment is designed for curly and wavy hair and starts at $250, while the Natural Keratin Smoothing Treatment starts at $300. Both prices rise with hair thickness, length and the amount of product needed, and the salon says smoothing results last three to five months with proper care. The salon describes its Natural Keratin Smoothing Treatment as award-winning. Hair and scalp treatments target damaged or dull hair, scalp dryness and irritation, breakage and product buildup, using K18 and Paul Mitchell products.

Styling options include a blowout for $50, a blowout with extensions starting at $80, and Formal Styling at $80, which includes updos and curls with a wash before styling. The salon lists wedding party styling, event and photoshoot styling, date nights, prom and school dances, and everyday blowouts. A professional blowout typically lasts three to five days, depending on hair type and care. The salon describes itself as a top salon in Knoxville for wedding hair, formal styling and blowouts.

Hair extensions are custom ordered from Bellami for each client and applied with K-tip (keratin tip), hand-tied weft or tape-in methods. Pricing is set at a consultation based on extension type, length and requirements, and extensions can last eight to twelve weeks before maintenance. Brow services begin with a consultation to assess skin type and brow goals. Brow waxing takes about 15 minutes for $20 and uses wax made for sensitive skin, with results typically lasting three to four weeks. Brow tinting costs $15, uses hypoallergenic products, and can last up to four weeks.

Clients provide a credit card to secure each booking. Cancellations or changes need at least 24 hours' notice; cancellations within 24 hours incur a 50% service charge, and no-shows are charged the full scheduled fee. Arriving more than 10 minutes late may mean the appointment is canceled or changed to a different service, depending on the time left. New guests booking Saturday appointments pay a 50% deposit that is applied to the service. Some hair goals take several visits, and the salon builds customized hair plans around them.

The salon builds customized hair plans around each client's goals and says some goals take more than one visit to reach.
