What the service involves
This service combines a precision root refresh with a gloss applied to the hair ends to harmonize color and restore surface shine. At Geneva’s the appointment is scheduled for 90 MINUTES and the listed price is $250. It’s designed as a maintenance visit between full color services rather than a full correction session.
A stylist assesses regrowth and the existing tone to choose a root color that blends with the mid-lengths. The gloss on the ends subtly evens tone and enhances surface lustre without lifting or reprocessing hair; if your hair needs major correction the stylist will recommend a different service during the consultation.
Timing and scheduling considerations
Appointments are booked for 90 MINUTES; the service price is $250. Because many clients in Kerns and nearby neighborhoods balance work and family schedules, Geneva’s offers flexible slots suited to early mornings, lunches, or evenings. We’re easy to reach from I-84 and the Lloyd District, making this a practical add-on before events or right after work.
Choose transit, MAX, or allow bike time; Portland’s frequent rain in fall through spring can affect arrival by bike or foot, so plan extra time when needed. Clients from Gresham, Beaverton, Lake Oswego, Vancouver and Milwaukie frequently book around work breaks, so early booking secures your preferred slot for appointments around shows at Moda Center or shopping at Lloyd Center.
Results and maintenance trade-offs
The immediate effect is root color blended to the regrowth line with a gloss that smooths tone and adds surface shine to the ends. Glosses are cosmetic toners and will gradually soften with shampooing and sun exposure; longevity varies by each person’s washing and styling routine, so plan repeat visits if you want consistently fresh tone.
If your ends show uneven lift, heavy brassiness, or damage from previous services, a gloss may only partially address tone. In those cases the stylist will outline options—often requiring a longer appointment or additional services—to reach the result you want. Discuss your priorities during the consultation so we can match outcome to your schedule and upkeep expectations.
