The lab

Gold is a standard, not a shade.

Dominique Vance built Gold Standard in a former jewellery workshop on Main Street, and kept the scales. Every formula is weighed to the tenth of a gram and logged, so your gold is the same gold every visit.

Seven colorists specialise in warm blonde: buttery, honeyed, champagne and bronze. Open late, because Las Vegas never really goes to bed.

Our story

From the workshop

In 2016 Dominique leased a former jewellery workshop on Main Street. The old gold scales were still bolted to the bench.
