How the service works
All Over Color w/ Foils pairs a uniform base color applied to the full length of the hair with strategically placed foiled highlights or lowlights. The base color creates cohesion while the foils introduce depth and texture. The stylist balances contrast and placement so the hair reads as one color from a distance but reveals dimension close up.
The final look depends on your starting color, hair porosity, and how many foils are placed. Foils concentrate lightening or color in controlled sections, so the stylist chooses foil size and placement to manage brightness and blending without sacrificing an even base tone.
Choosing color and placement
Selecting shades for the base and foils is a trade-off between vibrancy and natural blending. Cooler or warmer foil tones change perceived depth, while subtle lowlights can add shadow without high contrast. Local clients often report frequent compliments and high satisfaction when the colorist matches placement to the client’s daily styling and lifestyle.
Placement also affects maintenance: face-framing foils and surface highlights show immediately, while interior foils create more blended regrowth. Many St. Louis Park clients schedule around work and family routines, choosing placements that maintain a polished look between appointments and fit evening or weekend availability.
Timing, price, and seasons
Appointments for this service are scheduled for 90 minutes and the service starts at $160. That time covers applying the base color and setting foils; longer hair or more extensive foil coverage may require additional time. Plan for a full session so the stylist can properly time processing and ensure consistent results.
Demand rises in May, October, and December—clients shift to lighter spring tones in May, richer autumn shades in October, and fresh color for holiday events in December. St. Louis Park’s four-season climate and local schedules mean evenings and weekends are popular, so book ahead for those months when possible.
