The Foil Bar

Highlights & Balayage in Ponte Vedra Beach

There's a reason “Foil Bar” is in our name. We specialize in lived-in color and dimensional highlights: brightness that looks natural on day one and still looks intentional months later.

Soft balayage, bold foils, or a fix for color that went wrong, every service starts with a free consultation.

Highlights or Balayage?

Not sure which one you want? Most people aren't, and that's what the consultation is for. Here's the short version.

Stylist applying foil highlights to blonde hair

Placed in foils

Foil Highlights

  • Even, defined brightness starting close to the root
  • Best for going noticeably lighter or brightening all over
  • Grows out with a more visible line, so plan on regular refreshes
Golden blonde balayage on long, wavy hair

Painted by hand

Balayage

  • Hand-painted for a soft, natural, sun-kissed finish
  • Blends into your natural root with no harsh regrowth line
  • Lower maintenance, so you can usually go longer between visits

Many of our favorite results are a blend of both: foils for brightness around the face, balayage for softness everywhere else.

    We look at your hair's history and condition, talk through inspiration photos, and agree on a realistic plan, maintenance, and price before anything is mixed.

  2. Custom Formula

    Your color is formulated for your base shade, skin tone, and goals using professional Goldwell color.

  3. Application

    Foils, hand-painting, or a blend of both, placed to frame your face and suit how you actually wear your hair.

  4. Tone & Gloss

    We fine-tune the shade so it's exactly the blonde, bronde, or brunette you came in for, with plenty of shine.

  5. Finish & Home Care

    A finished style, plus product and care tips to keep your color bright between visits.

Color appointments take longer than a haircut, especially for full highlights or correction. We'll give you a time estimate when you book. Want a fresh shape too? Pair your color with a women's haircut in the same visit.

Keeping Color Bright in Florida

Gloss Between Visits

A quick gloss refreshes tone and shine without a full color appointment.

Rinse After the Beach

Salt water and chlorine dull color fast. Rinse with fresh water before they dry in.

Protect From Sun & Heat

UV and hot tools both fade color. A protectant spray goes a long way.

Use Color-Safe Products

Sulfate-free and toning shampoos keep blonde from turning brassy.

Color FAQs

How much do highlights and balayage cost?

Balayage starts from $190, partial highlights from $170, and full highlights from $220. Pricing varies with stylist experience, hair length, and density, and we confirm everything during your consultation before we begin.

Do I need a consultation before balayage or highlights?

Yes. For balayage, highlights, and major color changes, we recommend a consultation to look at your hair's condition and history, agree on goals, and plan a safe approach. Color consultations are free.

What's the difference between highlights and balayage?

Highlights are placed in foils for even, defined brightness from the root. Balayage is painted by hand for a softer, more natural sun-kissed look that grows out gradually. Many clients get a blend of both, and we'll recommend what fits your goals.

How often will I need to come back?

It depends on the technique. Traditional highlights grow out with a more visible line, so they need refreshing more often. Lived-in balayage grows out softly, so you can usually go longer between visits. A gloss in between keeps your tone fresh.

Can you fix box dye or color I'm unhappy with?

Yes. Color correction starts from $300 and is always planned during a consultation, since it can take more than one visit to get your hair where you want it safely.

How do I keep my blonde from turning brassy in the Florida sun?

Sun, salt water, and chlorine all pull color toward brass. A gloss between appointments, a toning shampoo, heat and UV protection, and rinsing after the pool or beach make a big difference. We'll recommend products for your shade.
