Welcome to Balthazar Studios

A boutique salon blending LA, NYC, and Detroit styles.

Shane Balthazar

Since 2015, I’ve been immersed in the beauty industry with a deep passion for hair color. From radiant blondes and bold vivids to seamless balayage and intricate color corrections, creating personalized, head-turning looks is what I do best. I’ve trusted Goldwell, Kenra, and Wella Professional products from the very beginning—these are my go-to color lines for delivering vibrant, dimensional results tailored to each client.

But color is just the beginning.

I specialize in hair extensions, with advanced training in the Natural Beaded Rows (NBR) method—an approach I’ve studied extensively through multiple visits to their California headquarters. NBR is known for its lightweight feel, gentle application, and natural finish. Whether you're looking to enhance your face frame, add volume to sparse areas, or achieve effortless length, this technique delivers undetectable, versatile results that move and style like your own hair.

Every transformation begins with a detailed consultation. We’ll take the time to understand your hair goals, walk through the process, and ensure you feel confident before any service is booked. Transparency is key—you’ll always know what to expect, with space to ask questions and review visuals if needed.

At Balthazar Studios, my mission is simple: to help you feel beautiful, empowered, and completely yourself. I’m honored to be part of your hair journey—and I can’t wait to create something amazing with you.

Testimonials

I recently lost a significant amount of weight and with that I lost a lot of hair. It is very noticeable and I wanted to do something about it. After a consult with Shane, I was confident that he would help me fix my hair and regain my confidence. I have one row and it has made all the difference. The process was so easy and seamless. I get compliments regularly and when I say I have extensions people are surprised saying “You can’t even tell, it looks so natural!" Shane has helped restore my confidence and today I feel beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️. Clare

I booked my color appointment just days before the Charity Preview at the Detroit Auto Show (a black-tie gala), and I couldn’t have been happier with the results. The transformation was stunning—my blonde was bright but dimensional, with just the right amount of warmth to complement my skin tone and evening look. The color correction and toning were flawless, and the blend was so natural that even under the ballroom lights, it looked like my hair had never been touched by a stylist. I got compliments all night - from industry execs to fellow engineers - and I felt confident, polished, and completely myself. This wasn’t just a color service—it was red carpet prep done right.
