Before you book

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Helpful details for clients comparing blonde specialists, planning a major color change, or preparing for an appointment in San Francisco or San Jose.

Which service should a new blonde client book?

Start with Signature Blonding when you want a major transformation, or choose the complimentary Private Consultation if you are unsure. Olena will review your current color, hair history, condition, and inspiration before confirming the plan.

Do color corrections require a consultation?

Yes. Corrective work depends on previous color, banding, porosity, and the safest achievable result. Pricing and timing are confirmed only after Olena can assess those factors.

Where are the studios?

Appointments are offered at 315 Sutter Street in San Francisco and 1700 Park Avenue in San Jose. Select your preferred studio in the request form.

Will blonding protect the health of my hair?

Hair integrity guides the plan, technique, and pace of every lightening service. Some goals may require more than one appointment, especially when safely lifting previously colored or compromised hair.

How do I request an appointment?

Choose a service, preferred studio, and timing in the booking flow. The website sends Olena a secure notification when connected, with WhatsApp available as the immediate fallback.
