Highlights and Balayage in Victoria BC
Highlights are one of our most requested services. Whether you want subtle face-framing pieces or a full head of foils, our colourists tailor the placement and tone to your natural colour and skin tone. Most highlight appointments need a touch-up around the 6 to 8 week mark.
Balayage uses a freehand application technique that creates a softer, more graduated result than traditional foil highlights. Because the colour is painted rather than sectioned, the grow-out looks more natural and most clients can go 10 to 12 weeks between appointments. It is a popular option for anyone who wants low-maintenance colour with a natural finish.
We also offer full colour, lowlights, root touch-ups, glossing treatments, and colour corrections for clients looking to change direction. If you are not sure which service suits your hair, we are happy to walk you through the options before your appointment.

How much does hair colouring cost at Bristol Town?
Colour services at Bristol Town start from $90, and highlights start from $120. Pricing reflects the service and the work involved, and your colourist can give you a clearer idea of what to expect at the start of your appointment. You can also call the salon at (250) 477-3098 before booking if you want to talk through options first.
What is the difference between highlights and balayage?
Highlights use foils to apply colour from root to tip, giving a more uniform, higher-contrast result. Balayage is hand-painted onto the mid-lengths and ends without foils, so regrowth is softer and less visible. Which one suits you depends on the look you want and how often you want to come back in.
How long do highlights last before they need touching up?
Traditional foil highlights typically need refreshing every six to eight weeks as the roots grow in. Balayage tends to last longer, often three to four months, because the colour placement blends more naturally with regrowth. Your colourist at Bristol Town can give you a realistic timeline based on your hair and the technique used.
How long does hair colour last?
Permanent hair colour generally lasts six to twelve weeks before fading or requiring a root touch-up, depending on your hair type and how you care for it at home. Semi-permanent colour fades more gradually and typically lasts four to six weeks. Using a colour-safe shampoo and avoiding excessive heat styling will help extend the life of your colour between visits.
Should I wash my hair before a colour appointment at Bristol Town?
You do not need to wash your hair immediately before a colour appointment. Arriving with heavy product buildup or very dirty hair can affect how colour takes. Hair that was washed the day before is generally ideal.
Can I bring a photo to my colour appointment?
Bringing a photo is one of the most useful things you can do before a colour appointment. It gives your colourist a clear reference point for the tone, depth, and technique you have in mind. Keep in mind that results depend on your current hair colour and condition, so your colourist will let you know what is achievable in a single visit.
How do I take care of my hair colour between appointments?
Using a colour-safe shampoo is the most straightforward way to keep your colour looking fresh between visits. Limiting heat styling and avoiding washing your hair in very hot water will also slow fading. Bristol Town carries colour-safe products from brands including Wella, Redken, and Color Wow at the front desk, so you can leave with what your colourist recommends.
What hair colour products does Bristol Town use?
Bristol Town uses and carries professional colour brands including Wella, Redken, Schwarzkopf, Joico, and Matrix. These are the same products used during your appointment and available for purchase at the front desk. Using the right products at home makes a real difference to how long your colour holds between visits.
