About

Hair Gloss by Sofia operates from a suite at 123 West Washington Street in Oswego, and its menu spans color, cutting, extensions, styling and treatments. Sofia Alaniz owns the business and works as a hairstylist, with color and cutting as her specialties.

Color is the core of the menu. Options include gloss and toner, mini foil highlights for up to 15 foils, full highlights with extra product added for thick or long hair, root touch-ups, and balayage, which is kept looking natural and is not taken all the way to the root. Several color services can be paired with a cut, with pricing based on hair length, and a balayage-and-cut option is intended for hair that has already been colored.

Extension work includes a consultation where color is matched and the hair price is paid, followed by tape-in, I tip, K tip and weft installs, each with its own install fee. The studio also removes, moves up, retapes and reinstalls existing extensions, and offers a blowout with an extension check and at-home care advice for K tip wearers.

Haircuts range from trims and shape changes to cuts for children aged 6 to 15 and for adults at short, medium and long lengths. Styling and treatments round out the menu. The studio is open Monday through Saturday with varying hours and closed on Sundays. New clients receive 10% off their first service and pay a deposit for a consultation or a long adult cut.

Color planning starts with a consultation, and the extended version includes a test strand so the hair's reaction to lightener or color can be seen before the full service.
