We offer a comprehensive range of hair colouring services including full colour, highlights, balayage, ombre, colour corrections, and bespoke colouring techniques to achieve your desired look.

 

Balayage is a freehand painting technique that creates a natural, sun-kissed look with softer, less noticeable regrowth lines compared to traditional highlights. It's ideal for those seeking a more low-maintenance hair colour.

 

We recommend using Davines products, which are formulated to protect and prolong hair colour while nourishing your hair. Your stylist can suggest the best products for your specific hair type and colour.

 

Dramatic colour changes may require multiple sessions to achieve the desired result safely and without compromising the health of your hair. A consultation with your stylist will help determine the best approach.

 

The frequency of touch-ups depends on the type of colour and your hair’s growth rate. Generally, root touch-ups are recommended every 4-6 weeks, while balayage and highlights may last 8-12 weeks.

Bring in any inspiration photos or specific shade references, and our skilled colourists will work to match or create a custom colour that suits you.

 

Fashion colours include vibrant and unconventional shades like pink, blue, green, and purple. Yes, we offer fashion colours and can help you achieve bold, creative looks.
