I’ve been going to Erica for about 6 years and she never disappoints with my cut and color. My natural color is a mix of grey and black which is not something I enjoy showing. Erica does a great job lifting the color to an amazing blonde with a very natural lived in look. I always enjoy seeing her, taking the time to care for her clients, while thoroughly enjoying what she does! I highly recommend!...more

Perfect cut and color 💓I've been coming to Erica for years and always leave with beautiful hair. I came from Las Vegas to visit my family and Erica was highly recommended by my sister. Now I travel a little ways to get my hair done but it's well worth it....more

Erica is the only hairstylist that I trust to show her a picture and what vibe I’m considering and then trust her to nail it every single time. My hair can be difficult to manage but she knows my hair the best and has never let me down once. She’s taken me from my natural black hair to blonde and everything in between yet protected the health of my hair. Sitting in Erica’s chair guarantees one of the best hair days you’ll have that week/month/year....more

I cannot say enough amazing things about Erica. I have been going to her for many years, and she is truly the best hairstylist I have ever had. From the moment you sit in her chair, you can tell how extremely professional, knowledgeable, and talented she is. She is an absolute wizard when it comes to hair color—especially when it comes to hiding grays beautifully and seamlessly. The color always looks natural, dimensional, and flawless.

Erica consistently nails both cut and color every single time. My hair always comes out silky smooth, healthy, and perfectly styled, and it lasts so well between appointments. She is incredibly conscientious about using only the best, high-quality products that are healthy for your hair, which makes such a difference over time.

Beyond her technical skill, Erica has a wonderful way of making you feel completely taken care of. She makes me feel like a queen every time I leave her chair—confident, refreshed, and absolutely loving my hair. It’s rare to find someone this consistent, talented, and genuinely passionate about their craft.

If you’re looking for someone you can truly trust with your hair, look no further. Erica is a gem, and I feel so lucky to have found her. Highly, highly recommend!...more

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Blonding - Face Framing/ Money Piece.

Will Blonding - Face Framing/ Money Piece damage my hair?

Proper technique, bond-building products, and professional timing minimize damage. We assess hair condition first and may recommend strengthening treatments or a gentler lift. Aftercare and regular glosses help maintain health and reduce the need for frequent aggressive lightening.

How long does a face-framing blonding appointment take at Erica Ruiz hair?

Most appointments range from 90 minutes to three hours depending on placement, desired lift, hair thickness, and whether additional services like glossing and root smudge are included. Your stylist will provide a more precise time estimate during consultation.

Is a patch test required before face-framing blonding at Erica Ruiz hair?

We recommend a patch and strand test for new clients, allergy concerns, or major color changes. Tests check for sensitivities and color lift expectations, ensuring a safe service and accurate shade matching during your Blonding - Face Framing/ Money Piece appointment.

How will face framing suit my face shape and skin tone?

Your stylist consults on placement, brightness, and contrast to complement facial structure and undertones. We choose warmth or coolness, thickness of pieces, and blending to flatter eyes, cheekbones, and overall coloring for a natural, balanced result.

How often should I refresh my money piece or gloss?

Refresh frequency varies: glosses usually every 4-8 weeks to maintain tone and sheen; money pieces may need touch-ups every 6-12 weeks depending on growth and contrast. Your stylist will recommend a plan based on your hair porosity and desired upkeep.

Can I get face-framing blonding on dark natural hair without heavy damage?

Yes, often achievable with staged lifting, careful placement, and bond-building treatments. We may use finer pieces, balayage, or lower lift plus gloss to create brightness while protecting hair. A consultation determines realistic goals and the number of sessions required.
