More information

What's Included

Your service covers expert planning, careful application, and a professional finish.

  • Personal consultation to assess goals, skin tone, and hair history.
  • Scalp and strand assessment for colour suitability.
  • Tailored half head colour to refine base or blend greys.
  • Precision full head foils for lift, brightness, and dimension.
  • Toner or gloss as needed for balance and shine.
  • Cleanse, condition, and professional blow-dry finish.
  • Aftercare advice and a maintenance plan.

Who It's For

Ideal if you want noticeable brightness with a soft, blended base. Suitable for most hair types and lengths. Great for blending greys, refreshing a base colour, and adding light through the lengths. Not suited to very short crops where foiling cannot be placed.

Duration & Appointment Timing

Allow 165 minutes for consultation, application, development, rinse, toning, and finish. Arrive five minutes early and come with dry, unwashed hair if comfortable. Extra time may be needed for long or very dense hair. A skin test is required for new colour guests at least 48 hours in advance.

Aftercare & Maintenance

  • Use sulphate-free, colour-safe shampoo and cool water.
  • Condition after every wash and add a weekly mask.
  • Apply heat protectant and limit high heat styling.
  • Refresh toner every 6 to 8 weeks to maintain tone.
  • Plan regrowth and foil maintenance every 8 to 12 weeks.
