Sapphire Salon

Sapphire Salon sits at 12279 County Road 65 in Foley, Alabama, pairing a full-service hair salon with an attached boutique for shoppers who want to browse while they wait. The salon opened relatively recently under owner Sam, who built the business around color work and now shares the chair with stylist Kendall.

The service menu leans heavily toward color, which shows in how granular the pricing gets. A full highlight starts at $160, a partial highlight starts at $125, and a mini highlight starts at $85, giving clients a range of coverage options depending on budget and how much lift they want. All-over base color starts at $105, with a base color touch-up priced at $75 for clients maintaining a previous color between full appointments.

For clients who want to freshen a color without a full reapplication, Sapphire offers a toner refresh for $45, a tap out or root smudge for $15, and painted ends for $15, options built for maintaining a look between bigger appointments. Balayage, the hand-painted highlighting technique, starts at $180 and stands out as one of the salon’s specialty services alongside the rest of the coloring menu.

Cuts and styling round out the list: a women’s cut runs $30, a women’s cut with wash and style is $45, and a blowout is $35. Clients looking for a more restorative visit can book the pamper me session for $100, which bundles a scalp treatment, deep conditioning, a scalp massage, and a finishing style into one appointment. The salon also offers standalone scalp treatments and deep conditioning treatments, each priced at $45.

Moroccanoil is the product line the salon has built its finishing and treatment services around, used across styling and conditioning services. Reviews posted on the salon’s own site describe the stylists as skilled at nailing a precise shade of blonde, and multiple clients credit the owner with helping them land on cuts and colors they had been chasing for a while.

Between the boutique attached to the salon floor and a service list that covers everything from a $15 root touch-up to a full balayage transformation, Sapphire gives Foley a color-focused salon with a fairly transparent price list posted right on its website, something not every salon in Baldwin County bothers to do. For anyone comparing options along County Road 65, that kind of upfront pricing makes it easier to know what a visit will cost before booking.

The pairing of salon and boutique under one roof also means a visit can extend beyond the chair. Clients waiting on a color to process, or simply stopping by to browse, can shop the retail side of the space without needing to schedule a separate outing. For a newer salon, that combination of clear pricing, a focused specialty in color, and a retail add-on gives Sapphire a distinct footprint among Foley’s hair salons.

The salon’s address on County Road 65 puts it within a short drive of most of Foley proper, a stretch of road that has become one of the busier commercial corridors in the city as new small businesses continue to open along it. Because Sapphire lists its color pricing publicly rather than requiring a phone call for a quote, clients arriving for a first appointment already know roughly where a full highlight or a balayage service will land on their bill, an approach that removes some of the guesswork that often comes with booking a first visit to a salon. Between Sam’s focus on color correction and blonding and Kendall’s work at the second chair, the two-stylist setup keeps the salon small enough that regular clients tend to see a familiar face at each visit rather than being rotated between different stylists.
