More information

What's Included

Your appointment covers each step for a consistent blonde with minimal stress on your hair.

  • Personal consultation and scalp and hair assessment.
  • Protective barrier cream and bond care.
  • Precision lightener application to regrowth only.
  • Timed processing with integrity checks.

Who It's For

Ideal for existing bleached blondes with natural regrowth up to about 2 to 3 cm and no cosmetic colour at the roots. If you have longer regrowth, colour banding, or box dye present, a full bleach and tone or corrective service is more suitable.

Aftercare & Maintenance

  • Use sulphate-free shampoo and cool water.
  • Purple shampoo once a week to control warmth.
  • Condition after every wash and use a mask weekly.
  • Apply heat protector before styling.
  • Limit chlorine and heavy oils in the first week.
  • Book toner refresh every 4 to 6 weeks.
  • Schedule root bleach maintenance every 6 to 8 weeks.
  • Protect hair from UV with a leave-in.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much regrowth is included?
This service covers natural regrowth from a previous full bleach, typically up to 2 to 3 cm or around 6 to 8 weeks. Longer regrowth or colour banding may require a full bleach and tone.
Is toner included in this service?
Yes, a professional toner is included to refine your shade and add shine. We tailor it to your preferred finish and your hair needs.
Will this damage my hair?
We prioritise hair integrity. We use bond-builders, controlled processing, and professional aftercare. Your stylist will advise if a gentler plan is safer.
Can you bleach over box dye?
Box dye can react unpredictably with bleach and often needs a different approach. We will assess your hair and advise a corrective plan if needed.
Does it include a blow-dry?
Yes, a professional blow-dry and finish are included. This lets you leave polished and helps us check tone and balance.
