Why Prices Differ for QiQi +
Understanding QiQi Pricing:
The cost is based on how much QiQi formula your hair needs — longer, thicker, or denser hair simply requires more product and more time (3–5+ hours total). This ensures every guest gets the perfect customized result instead of a “one-size-fits-all” treatment. Shorter hair uses less product, so it costs less. We never guess — your stylist measures and quotes the right level during your consultation.
