Airtouch price in Odesa: what you pay for
How much does Airtouch cost in Odesa, and what does the price depend on?
The price of Airtouch in Odesa varies a lot from one colourist to another, and comparing the figures directly makes little sense because they include different things. With me, Airtouch costs from 3,200 UAH, and that already covers chelation, lightening, reconstruction and toning for all zones. I can give you the exact cost for your hair after seeing a photo or at a consultation.
Why Airtouch prices in Odesa differ so much
If you look through salon and colourist price lists, the spread is noticeable. Usually it isn't because someone is overcharging, but because different services are being sold under the name Airtouch. In one place the price covers only the lightening, and toning is paid for separately. In another, aftercare isn't included; in a third, the price is for short hair and long hair costs extra.
So when you compare, ask what exactly is included. Chelation, toning, reconstruction, styling: each of these is either in the price or will show up on the bill as an extra.
It can also go like this: a lower price at the start, but a few weeks later there's yellowness, patchy regrowth or dry ends, and then you end up paying for fixes, toning and treatments. So I'd suggest looking not only at the cost of one visit but at what it will cost to wear that colour for several months. If a colourist quotes an exact price without seeing a photo or asking about your colour history, it's worth checking whether it might change on the day. I write about what else to look for when choosing a colourist in the article on how to choose a colourist in Odesa.
What affects the price
Length and density. Long, thick hair needs more sections, more lightener and toner, and the work takes longer.
Your starting base. Natural hair lightens predictably. Dyed hair, especially if it's been dyed dark, lightens unevenly and needs more control, sometimes a strand test.
Number of sessions. If the shade you want can't be reached in one visit from a dark or dyed base, we split the work into several stages, and that also affects the total.
Amount of light. Airtouch with a lot of blonde, almost a total blonde with your own dark roots, takes more time and product than a more subtle version.
Product use. Lightener, developer, toner, reconstruction treatments: how much is needed depends on everything listed above.
What the Le Chris price includes
Every service I offer includes chelation. It clears the hair of metals and mineral build-up from water, which interfere with lightening, dry the hair out under the powder, cause extra yellowness and stop reconstruction actives from penetrating.
Then comes the Airtouch technique itself, reconstruction and toning. I work with the professional brand Viart. So you don't pay extra for toning or aftercare: the price "from 3,200 UAH" already covers the whole process for all zones of the head.
If the whole head doesn't need doing, we can work on the key visible zones only: the face frame, the top and the temples. That's handy when you want to refresh your look without the full amount of work.
Why an honest price is usually "from"
I can't give an exact figure without seeing the hair, because two clients who both have "shoulder-blade length" hair can have completely different density and colour history. The "from" price shows the lower limit for the full service.
To get an exact figure, it's enough to send a photo in daylight and tell me what your hair has been coloured with in recent years. Sometimes that's enough for me to quote straight away. Sometimes I'll need extra photos or details, and then we go through everything in more detail by message.
If I can see that the result you want won't be possible in one visit, I tell you straight away. It's better to know in advance and budget for several stages than to find out once you're already in the chair.
First appointment, correction and toning
The first Airtouch is usually the biggest job: we build the gradient from scratch. A correction is part of the same service, also from 3,200 UAH, and the final figure depends on how much work is needed that particular time.
I recommend a correction roughly every 4 months if up to half of your hair is blonde. You can also go without, because Airtouch grows out softly. Between corrections you can simply refresh the colour: toning with reconstruction and chelation costs from 700 UAH. I talk about how long Airtouch lasts without any refresh in the article on how long Airtouch lasts.
Over a year, Airtouch with less frequent corrections usually works out easier on the budget than techniques where the roots need redoing often.
