Choosing the right colour service can be a headache, so I've written a quick description for each service which I hope is helpful. If you're still not sure, don't worry! ...The best thing to do if you're not sure is book in for an Allergy test and consultation and we can discuss your hair goals and I'll let you know which service you'll need to book for!

Shortcut titles 🙌 Balayage 💅 Highlights ✨ Pre-lighten and tone 👌 All over colour 🎨 Colour transformation 🤷 Still not sure? ❤️ I'm an existing colour client
Balayage Balayage is a bleach treatment which doesn't start at the root, it's a great choice for someone who wants a low maintenance colour option but a nice bit of textured colour. It starts further down the hair so this means it's a more natural look and it's much easier to keep up with! This includes Olaplex hair treatment to keep your hair in good condition after bleaching. Book in here
Highlights - Half head Half head highlights are only applied to the top, most visible sections. You can choose to lighten the entire top section or pick out a few precise pieces/panels instead. This could be face-framing, a little side peek-a-boo moment or sections at the back and sides of the head. This includes Olaplex hair treatment and a trim to keep your hair in good condition after bleaching. Book in here
Highlights - Full head Full head highlights are weaved through every layer of hair, it will be a really full and textured look. This includes Olaplex hair treatment and a trim to keep your hair in good condition after bleaching. Book in here
Pre-lighten & tone This is usually a bleaching and toning process that includes some sort of colour treatment that is applied all over the hair. This service can vary from client to client. It can be for those seeking a gorgeous tasty buttery blonde, a textured warm coppery colour to a creamy dreamy moment. It can also be a vibrant vivid pink or a slime green crazy colour! Includes Olaplex, cut/trim and blowdry. Book in here
All over colour This colour service is pretty much what it says on the tin - it's an all over colour. All over colour is a super common type of colour service! It covers your entire head in a single process with a single colour and is typically used to cover lighter hair than the colour your going to end with. Book in here
Pre-dyed hair colour transformation sensation! This service is a labour of love and applies to hair that will need me to match home dyed or bleached hair that’s been done by another hairdresser. This price will range from £250 - £280 and it really depends on the condition of your hair and the existing chemicals on it that we are working with. This will be a big full day so make sure to bring yourself a lil sandwich, a good book and don’t book any hot dates or thumb wars afterwards! - Full colour transformations are often a marathon not a sprint! Is this the one for you? Book in here
Still not sure?
Don't forget - you don't need to book your colour service in right away if you aren't sure what's right for you.
Book an Allergy test and consultation - It's free!
We'll discuss everything including your hair goals, hair history and check the condition of your hair. This must be done before all colour services. It' s very important to do especially if your hair has had lots of colours/bleach/henna applied to it previously. At the end I'll let you know which service you'll need to book in for.
