Hair Color Considerations

There are many factors to consider when choosing a new color for your hair. Your stylist will work with you to explore options that may be best suited for you based on hair type, texture, skin tone, hair porosity, maintenance, and preferences. Some of these factors include:

• Hair type – the thickness and diameter of your individual strands, such as coarse or fine
• Hair texture – overall look and feel of the hair, such as curly or straight
• Skin tone – the warm or cool undertones of the skin can help pinpoint colors that may be especially flattering
• Natural hair color – finding a new color that will look natural and complement your entire look
• Hair porosity – highly porous hair absorbs color faster, so a semi or demi permanent option may be less damaging
• Lifestyle – depending on lifestyle, you may wish for a low-maintenance color that requires minimal touch-ups
• Hair condition – healthy hair generally can tolerate more processing and treatment

These factors will all be taken into consideration during the initial hair color consultation, when your stylist will explore options with you before booking the official coloring appointment.

Choosing a Hair Color

Your stylist will work with you to explore different color options and services. Some of our most popular color services include:

• Balayage – freehand technique where color is painted onto the hair to create a more natural-looking highlight 
• Highlights – technique involving coloring small sections of hair with a lighter shade than the base color
• Ombre – technique where the hair is darker at the roots and gradually fades into a lighter color at the ends
• Single Process – technique involving using one color to dye the entire head of hair
• Gloss – technique where semi-permanent color is applied to the hair to add shine and vibrancy
• Negative Space – technique that involves weaving highlights or lowlights throughout natural base color, usually near the face
