Frequently Asked Questions

• What is Light Set and how is it different?

  Light Set is a professional-grade custom highlighting kit that’s unique to you. Our Light-Swept technique combines the sunswept, natural-looking results of balayage with the personalized attention you can expect from eSalon.

  Each order is reviewed and crafted by one of our professional colorists who will work with you to achieve your ultimate goal. Our gradual lightening system helps maintain healthy, beautiful hair. Your tailored Light Set kit promptly arrives at your door, complete with personalized instructions for an easy application and gorgeous results.

• But what is balayage?

  Balayage is a French technique that means “to sweep.” Highlights are painted on to create a multidimensional, sunswept look without harsh lines or high contrast roots.

  It’s also progressive, so your highlights will lighten with each Light Set application. Once you’ve reached your desired lightness, we’ll help you maintain your Light-Swept look. The best part? It’s low maintenance! Balayage creates a soft, natural look for less noticeable regrowth and long-lasting results.

• So how often do I need to apply Light Set?

  Our team of experts will recommend a plan based on your hair needs and goals. We recommend refreshing every 2-6 months.

• Can I apply Light Set with my color application?

  For best results, we recommend applying your custom hair color before your highlights, in separate applications. You should apply your highlights within the week—same day is OK!

• How do I apply Light Set?

  Every Light Set kit includes personalized instructions unique to your highlight goals, with a detailed explanation of your colorist-selected technique. You can also watch our helpful how-to videos for a step-by-step demonstration of your application. And as always, your personal colorist is available along the way to answer any questions.

• What does the toning mask do?

  Our unique toning mask is a luxurious 2-in-1 step that hydrates and smoothes the hair while adding necessary pigment back to the lightened ends. The toner shade is selected by your colorist, and will balance or neutralize any exposed undertones to reach your color goals.

• Can I save remaining lightener for my next application?

  Since every Light Set application is custom-designed for one application, we can only guarantee the best results with immediate use. Please discard any unused product.

• Why can't I use Light Set on permed, relaxed and/or chemically treated and or henna hair?

  We do not recommend applying Light Set on hair that has been chemically treated with anything other than hair color since we’re unable to predict or guarantee results.
