Our Philosophy

Our Services
At Bangs and Locks Salon, we offer a wide range of services designed to meet the unique needs of each of our clients. Our services include:
Creative Hair Color
Our experienced stylists use Aveda's full-spectrum hair color, which is 99% naturally derived, to deliver personalized results. From permanent hair color services to glossing services, we have got you covered.
Partial Highlight
Our partial highlight application consists of foils placed throughout the top, sides, and crown of the head. Partial highlighting delivers natural-looking results.
Full Highlight
Our full highlight application consists of foils placed evenly throughout the entire head. Full highlights are ideal for those who wear their hair up or are looking to make a more dramatic color change.
Balayage
Balayage is a French word meaning to sweep or to paint. Our balayage treatment involves applying color with a sweeping motion from the ends of the hair up towards the scalp, delivering sun-kissed natural-looking color concentrated towards the ends of the hair. We offer partial balayage, which delivers a subtle result with about 1/4 of the total hair on your head being colored, as well as full balayage, which delivers a more dramatic result with about 1/2 of the total hair on your head being colored.
Balayage Ombre
Our balayage ombre treatment is a blending of two techniques. Color is applied with a sweeping motion from the ends of the hair up towards the scalp, and the color is concentrated towards the ends of the hair to achieve a complete change in hue from the roots to the ends.
