About Us
Colour Me Beautiful Salon is a hair color–focused salon serving Northeast Albuquerque, known for balayage, highlights, and modern blonding techniques that look natural, blended, and wearable. Our team brings years of hands-on experience working with blonde hair, dimensional color, and customized highlight placement designed to grow out beautifully.
We believe great hair color starts with education, precision, and a clear understanding of how hair behaves in New Mexico’s dry climate. Every service begins with a thoughtful consultation and a plan tailored to your hair type, skin tone, and maintenance preferences. Rather than following trends, we focus on timeless techniques, healthy hair, and results that hold up between appointments.
Clients choose Colour Me Beautiful for consistent results, clear communication, and a calm, professional salon experience built on trust.

Hair Color Experts Who Care About Hair Health
We’ve made a conscious shift away from services that are tough on the hair and the stylist—like Brazilian Blowouts—and now focus on nourishing treatments and healthy techniques that help your hair shine. Our goal is to preserve the integrity of your hair so your color lasts longer, fades better, and always looks its best.
We proudly use Milbon, a Japanese professional hair care line known for its breakthrough technology in repairing damage at the cellular level. Whether your hair needs moisture, strength, or smoothing, we have in-salon and take-home treatments that can help restore it.
If you are looking for a salon that values both beautiful color and long-term hair health, we would love to connect. Our approach is centered on techniques that respect your hair while delivering polished, wearable results.
Every service is designed with care, clarity, and consistency, so you can feel confident in both the process and the outcome.

Advanced Services for Modern Color Clients
We work with clients who want refined, dimensional hair color and healthy hair that holds up over time. Our approach prioritizes thoughtful placement, controlled lightening, and techniques that enhance your natural look while minimizing unnecessary stress on the hair.
Our most requested services include:
Balayage and lived-in color
Soft, blended highlights designed to grow out naturally with minimal maintenance.
Blonde hair services
Modern blonding focused on brightness, tone balance, and long-term hair health.
Grey blending and toning
Subtle techniques that soften the appearance of grey hair while maintaining a natural finish.
Custom perms for texture and volume
Contemporary perm services created to add movement and body without stiffness or damage.

Why Healthy Hair Matters
Healthy hair holds color better, looks shinier, feels softer, and styles more easily. That is why every part of our process is focused on maintaining the integrity of your hair, from application techniques to the products we recommend.
Whether you are maintaining blonde hair, adding dimension through highlights, or starting a new color journey, we work with you to create a plan that supports your goals while protecting the condition of your hair over time.

A Small Team with Big Talent
Colour Me Beautiful is a boutique salon with a close-knit team of experienced stylists who bring care, precision, and creativity to every appointment. While our team is intentionally small, each stylist contributes deep expertise and a strong attention to detail.
Ongoing education is a priority here. Our stylists continually refine their skills, stay current with modern techniques, and work with advanced products so clients receive thoughtful, well-executed results they can trust.
Real Results. Real Reviews.
Our clients choose Colour Me Beautiful for gorgeous color, skilled technique, and results that hold up between appointments. From balayage and highlights to blonding maintenance, we’re proud of the trust our guests place in us, and their reviews reflect that experience. Many of our new clients find us through word of mouth and online reviews and stay with us for years.

Staff are friendly. The highlights came out beautifully and my stylist was fast and efficient. Love going to this salon.

Every time I leave the salon I feel so happy. Kristen is amazing. The Best!

Loved it! Left feeling beautiful!

I am so pleased to have found this wonderful salon! Yesterday was my first cut there, after 20 years of history with my longtime stylist, who has recently moved out of Albuquerque. Maria did a beautiful job cutting and styling my hair! I highly recommend this salon!
Finally! I was able to get balayage that looks incredible - never going to anyone else ever again. I thought I was a lost cause and my hair just wouldn’t take to blonde because it’s too dark. Not the case just needed a new hairstylist- I HIGHLY recommend Kristin.
I've been seeing Kristin for a couple of years now. Every time I leave with exactly what I was looking for, even when I switch something up. My baby-lights look beautiful, natural and I get lots of compliments on my hair. When I had to cancel an appointment last minute she fit me in 4 days later. So...mehow she did my touch-up in half the time of my last salon, while keeping the service spectacular! read more
Kristin is the absolute best and I am SO blessed to have found her! I can’t stop admiring myself in the mirror after my appointments with her. She’s affordable, uses quality products, and nails my hair color every time. Plus, she’s fun to talk to.

I’ve gone to three stylists who colored my hair and every time I had patches of yellow or orange. Finally! I was able to get balayage that looks incredible - never going to anyone else ever again.

Maria always does such a great job with my hair. I have super fine blonde hair and the highlights she gives me always look so natural and grow out flawlessly. She listens to what I want and is able to provide it perfectly every time. I will never go anywhere else!

Have had the worst luck finding a hair salon until now. This is the place to go if you need a high level color specialist and a great cut.

Thank you so much for trusting us! We really appreciate the great review.
LOVE how my hair turned out! Deborah did a great job with my super-specific requests on the perm & cut, and we had fun chatting the whole time she was working on my hair. I'll definitely be going back again!

Thank you Cynthia for the awesome review! We appreciate you.
the new client deal didn't work when I click send on their website. the place and services is ok.
I was desperate for help transitioning to grey. I literally contacted almost every salon in Albuquerque. I told them I had seen what Jack Martin is doing in California for women trying to transition, and they said no one in town could do that here. They were wrong! Kristin did it (you can see the tr...ansformation she did on me in her website). She is so diligent and took her time to do the research. I highly recommend her if you are facing the dilemma of trying to transition from coloring your hair to letting your gorgeous silver locks shine! read more
First time there today. Loved Kirsten!!! Clean, organized and professional! Love my hair!!! Thank you!!!!
In for a color today with Maria. What a great experience! Will definately be back.
Absolutely Love Kristen! I searched for years for a stylist that knew how to highlight dark hair without it looking dry and brassy. That is exactly what I found at Colour me beautiful! I am so grateful not only that I found the perfect stylist, but also a great friend. I get complimented on my hair...often and I’m quick to tell them my hairstylist is the best! read more

What is the best treatment for hair breakage?

«We love welcoming clients old and new into Colour Me Beautiful Salon in Albuquerque. You can see our opening times here https://colourmebeautiful.us/contact/albuquerque-hair-salon/
How do I book a hair appointment?
«It's very easy to book a hair appointment at Colour Me Beautiful Salon. You can text us on (505) 456-3221, book online here https://www.mycolourmebeautiful.com/ or send us a request at [email protected].
What the best way to cover grey hair?
«That depends on the look and grey hair coverage you want, but the good news is that there are several ways to conceal grey hair. Heredity will determine when those grey hairs start to creep in. The hair color specialists at Colour Me Beautiful Salon in Albuquerque have helped women – and men – of all ages camouflage grey hair by adding all over hair color, by lightening hair, or by adding a combination of highlights and lowlights.
How often should I refresh my hair color?
«It depends on the type of color service and how fast your hair grows. For root touch-ups or grey coverage, we recommend every 4–6 weeks. For balayage or root melt services, many clients can go 8–12 weeks between appointments with proper at-home care and occasional gloss treatments.
Can I color my hair while pregnant?
«Many women safely color their hair during pregnancy, especially after the first trimester. We recommend consulting your doctor and choosing ammonia-free or low-odor products. We’re happy to discuss gentler color options if you're expecting.
Should I wash my hair before my color appointment?
«Avoid washing your hair the day of your appointment—natural oils help protect your scalp. Bring inspiration photos if you have a specific look in mind, and let your stylist know about any past chemical services or allergies.
Can I color my hair after giving birth? Should I let my stylist know I’m postpartum?
«Yes, it’s usually safe to color your hair postpartum, but hormones, stress, and changes in body chemistry after childbirth can sometimes affect how your hair reacts to color. For example, some women experience increased shedding, oiliness, or dryness, and these changes may impact how the color takes or how long it lasts.
We always recommend telling your stylist if you’ve recently given birth or are breastfeeding. This helps us tailor the service to your current hair condition and choose the most gentle, effective products—especially if you're concerned about sensitivity or are avoiding strong chemicals.
Do you offer color correction?
«Our focus is balayage, blonding, and dimensional color. If your hair requires major corrective work, we’ll assess whether it aligns with our specialty.
