How often should I get a haircut?
Most shorter styles hold their shape for 4 to 6 weeks, while longer layered cuts can stretch 8 to 12 weeks before they go flat. If you color your hair, pairing a trim with your color visit saves a trip. Sonja will suggest a realistic schedule based on how fast your hair grows and how you style it day to day.
What is included in a shampoo and style?
A shampoo and style, starting at $30, covers a wash at the bowl, conditioning, and a full blowout or set without cutting. It is the right service between cuts, before an event when you do not need a formal updo, or any week you simply want your hair professionally handled from wet to finished.
How long does all-over color last?
Expect visible root growth in 4 to 6 weeks if you are covering gray, and gradual fading over 6 to 8 weeks for fashion shades, faster with hot water and frequent washing. Sonja will suggest a touch-up rhythm at your first visit, and a $20 toner between full color appointments can refresh tone without a whole new application.
Can you fix a box dye job?
Usually, but it starts with an honest consultation. Box dye builds up unevenly, so correcting it can take more than one session depending on how dark the buildup is and how light you want to go. Sonja will look at your hair in person, explain what is achievable in one visit, and quote the work before anything is mixed.
Will coloring damage my hair?
Single-process color is one of the gentler chemical services when the hair is assessed first, which is why every color visit at the Pineville salon starts with a look at your history, previous color, and current condition. Pairing color with a $40 deep conditioning treatment keeps the hair strong, especially if you color regularly.
What is the difference between foils and balayage?
Foils lift saturated, uniform brightness from close to the root, which suits classic highlighted looks and gray blending. Balayage is painted by hand onto the surface of the hair, so the result is softer, more sun-kissed, and grows out without a hard line. Many Pineville clients end up with a blend of both, foils for brightness and balayage for a natural finish.
How often should I refresh my highlights?
A full foil typically holds 10 to 14 weeks, with many clients booking a $100 partial in between to keep the face-framing pieces bright. Balayage stretches even longer because there is no root line to chase. A $20 toner partway through refreshes the tone when blonde starts drifting warm.
Can I go blonde in one appointment?
It depends on your starting color and hair history. Virgin medium-brown hair can often reach a bright dimensional blonde in one session, while previously colored or very dark hair may need staged appointments to stay healthy. Sonja will tell you plainly at the consultation what one visit can and cannot do.
How long does keratin smoothing last?
Most keratin treatments hold 3 to 5 months, gradually washing out rather than growing out, so there is no harsh line when it fades. Sulfate-free shampoo and less frequent washing extend the life considerably. Timed right, one treatment in late spring can carry your hair through the worst of a Pineville summer.
Will keratin make my hair completely straight?
No, and that is usually the point. Keratin smoothing reduces frizz and loosens texture rather than flattening it, so waves stay wavy but behave. If you want your natural curl preserved, or you want maximum smoothness, say so at the consultation and Sonja will adjust the approach and set expectations honestly.
Is a deep conditioning treatment worth it?
If your hair is colored, highlighted, heat-styled daily, or crunchy from summer sun and chlorine, yes. The $40 deep conditioning treatment restores moisture and slip that home conditioners cannot match, and it pairs well with a color or highlight visit so damaged hair does not undermine fresh color.
How much do hair extensions cost?
Honest answer: it varies more than any other salon service, because the hair itself, the amount needed, and the installation method all move the price. That is why extensions at Anointed Strands are quoted only after an in-person consultation, where Sonja can see your hair, discuss your goal, and price the exact plan rather than a guess.
Will extensions damage my natural hair?
Not when they are installed correctly, matched to your hair's strength, and maintained on schedule. Damage almost always comes from wrong-sized installs, skipped maintenance, or sleeping and washing carelessly. Sonja covers the full care routine before you leave, and maintenance visits keep the attachment points healthy as your hair grows.
When should I book a wedding or prom updo?
As soon as you have the date. Prom weekends in the Pineville and Alexandria area book up fast because everyone needs the same Saturday morning, and wedding dates deserve a locked slot months out. Booking early also leaves room to schedule a trial run so nothing about the style is a surprise on the day.
Should I wash my hair before an updo?
Wash the night before, not the morning of. Day-old hair has just enough grip for pins and teasing to hold, while freshly washed hair is slippery and fights the style. Come with dry, product-free hair, bring your accessories and veil, and the appointment goes faster and holds longer.
