Hair Colour Consultation

What your hair colour consultation covers

A short, focused appointment designed to remove the guesswork and set you up for a colour you can live with.

• A chat about what you like and do not like about your current colour, plus your ideal end result.
• A quick look at your hair condition, previous colour, and how your hair behaves.
• Shade guidance that suits your skin tone, natural depth, and how often you want to be in the salon.
• Technique options explained simply, for example highlights, balayage style softness, all over colour, or a refresh.
• A realistic plan for maintenance, fading, and how the colour will grow out.
• Clear next steps for booking, timing, and anything needed beforehand, such as a patch test.

A hair colour consultation for changes, corrections, and low maintenance colour

This is ideal if you are going lighter or darker, covering greys, blending regrowth, or moving away from banding and uneven tones. It is also helpful if you have had box dye, colour build up, or mixed results elsewhere. We will be honest about what is achievable in one appointment, and what might need a staged plan.

How the 10 minute hair colour consultation works

We start with a quick conversation about your hair history and your goal, then look at your lengths, ends, and regrowth in natural light where possible. You can bring a couple of photos, but we will translate them into something that works for your hair now. If you are unsure, we will narrow it down to two or three clear options.

After your consultation, a clear colour plan you can follow

You will know what to book, what the end result should look like, and how to look after it at home. If a patch test is required, we will explain when to do it and how it fits around your appointment. You will also have a better idea of how often you will want a refresh, so your colour stays wearable between visits.
