How the main hair services work
Cuts and washes
A women's haircut shapes the hair to your chosen length and finish, usually with a shampoo and a blow dry. A wash and deep condition cleanses and moisturizes the hair, and it is often booked before a style. A wash and roller set adds volume with rollers for a styled finish without a blow dry.
Highlights and color
Partial highlights lighten a section of the hair, while full highlights cover the whole head for a brighter look. A hair color service changes the overall shade, and a color consultation reviews your color history before a bigger change. Highlights often take two to three and a half hours, so allow more time than for a cut.
Blowouts and silk press
A blowout uses a blow dry and round brush for a smooth, voluminous finish. A Dominican blowout is a silk-press style that straightens the hair with heat for a sleek look that lasts until the next wash. A reset hair system is a styled service for clients who want a fresh look between full visits.
Hair extensions and treatments
Hair extensions add length or fullness with tape, clip, or sew-in methods, and they usually take a few hours. Ask the stylist about the method, the hair used, and how often the extensions need maintenance.
Typical prices for hair services in Tampa
Price depends on the service, hair length and thickness, and how much color or lightening is needed.

Partial highlights start around $180, full highlights from about $220 to $275, and hair extensions from about $300.
