Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Color and Blow-Dry.
Typical appointments run 60–90 minutes depending on hair length, color complexity and processing time. A consultation before service helps set an accurate timeframe; more intensive lifts or treatments may extend the appointment.
Using professional formulas, bond-building treatments and precise application helps minimize damage. We assess hair condition first and recommend conditioning or bond-repair services when needed to protect integrity and reduce breakage.
For root touch-ups, every 4–6 weeks is common; full color refreshes or tone adjustments may be scheduled every 6–12 weeks. Your stylist will suggest a personalized timeline based on growth and hair health.
Yes — we offer both permanent and semi-permanent color. During your consultation the stylist will discuss longevity, coverage and maintenance to select the best option for your desired result and hair condition.
Use sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo, rinse with cool water and apply weekly deep-conditioning masks. Limit heat styling, use heat protectant products and schedule gloss or toner refreshes to keep color vibrant longer.
We require or recommend a patch test for new clients or those with sensitivities. Patch testing is performed 48–72 hours before the full Color and Blow-Dry appointment to check for allergic reactions and ensure safety.
