The national benchmark is a standard full-body custom studio session.

Ask the provider for the final total for the exact service selected.
Questions to ask include:
- Is the quoted price for the standard or express / rapid-rinse option?
- What rinse window applies to the selected service?
- Is a multi-session package available, and what are its terms?
- Is the appointment at a studio or at the client’s location?
- What is included in the full-body service shown on the menu?
