Expert hair color and foil highlights, mixed and applied by a master stylist in the private suite at M/C Salon & Spa.

Hair Color and Highlights in Sarasota, Done by Hand
Hair color and highlights in Sarasota have to survive sun, salt and chlorine. That changes how a colorist works: where the foils go, how light to lift, which toner will hold. Maria Coutris has been coloring hair since 1986, and every formula in this suite is mixed for the person in the chair rather than pulled from a chart.

Foil Highlights, Placed for Your Face
Foil highlighting gives the colorist control. Each section is chosen, lightened and wrapped individually, so the brightness lands where it flatters you most and the result grows out softly. Partial highlights frame the face; full highlights lighten the whole head. Maria will tell you honestly which one your hair needs.

Corrective Color Starts With a Consultation
Color gone wrong is stressful, and fixing it takes patience. Come in first so Maria can see the hair, learn what was used and check its condition. Sometimes the fix is a toner and a conditioning treatment. Sometimes it is a planned series of visits. You will know the plan before anything is mixed.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between partial and full highlights?
Partial highlights are placed through the top and sides, where light naturally hits, for a brighter frame around the face. Full highlights run through every section of the hair, including underneath, for an all-over lighter look.
Can you fix color from another salon?
Yes. Corrective color is one of the services offered. Come in for a consultation so Maria can look at the hair, the current color and its condition before recommending a plan.
What does a toner do?
A toner adjusts the tone of lightened hair. It can neutralize brassiness, cool down warm yellows or add a soft tint, so highlights land exactly where you want them.
Do you color eyebrows?
Yes. Brow coloring is offered on its own or alongside a hair color appointment.
