Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Face Frame Or Money Piece.

Most face frame or money piece appointments take 45-75 minutes depending on hair length, hair density, and desired lightness. A consultation at the start helps determine exact timing so we can achieve precise placement and tone within your schedule.

When performed correctly, the technique uses minimal lightening focused around the face to avoid widespread damage. We use professional formulas and bond-building products to protect hair integrity, and tailor strength of lift to maintain both color and health.

Lifespan varies by color contrast and care—typically four to ten weeks before noticeable regrowth. Using color-safe products, sulfate-free shampoo, and UV protection extends vibrancy. Touch-ups or toner refreshes can keep the pieces looking crisp between appointments.

Absolutely. Our stylists collaborate with you to select thickness, placement, and lightness. Subtle pieces soften and brighten softly, while dramatic money pieces provide high-contrast, face-framing impact. We'll show visual examples to match your desired intensity.

A brief consultation is recommended to assess hair condition, existing color, and your goals. This ensures color choice and placement flatter your face shape and lifestyle, and allows us to discuss maintenance, timing, and any necessary pre-treatment.

Use sulfate-free, color-safe shampoos and conditioners, limit washing to preserve tone, and use heat protectant when styling. Apply deep-conditioning masks weekly and schedule toner refreshes as recommended to maintain brightness and hair health.
