Balayage
This freehand highlighting technique creates natural, sun-kissed dimension with soft grow-out patterns. Our color specialists customize the application to complement your skin tone and existing hair color. The result is low-maintenance, gradient color that adds depth and modern sophistication to any hairstyle.

Very hurt and disappointed in Wavelenghts " newer policy "They are charging customers for a missed appointment. My husband has been happy going to get his haircut for many years there. I have been a client since the owners were young girls. My husband is quite ill this morning and I called to cancel his appointment. Tried to reschedule for next week when he could feel better and enjoy his haircut.,W e we're told he would be charged a fee. Now he will no longer be a client. So sad that 30 years of our loyalty was dismissed over a policy that doesn't care about their Grand Islanders.

My hairstylist for 10 years went on maternity leave. She referred me to a student to fill in. After a couple months I called to ask when she would return. The receptionist laughingly told me she had returned weeks ago and was booked up for months. Wow. I guess business must be good.

First time coming here for a haircut and was very pleased with the result. First I just want to mention how clean the salon was and how they take every safety precaution to make you feel safe during these times! Julie took care of me and was very professional. I felt so good after the haircut as I had waited so long to finally go. It's one of the best haircuts I've gotten in a long time and will definitely be back. Thank you for making this a relaxing experience and putting my mind at ease.

Today I went to Wavelengths and received a cut from Jessica H., can't be happier. I've always gone to a Barber for my men's cut, but I must say, she did great! Very nice atmosphere, very professional & patient, I'm picky! I will be seeing her again and appreciate the excellent cut!
