What is a Full Hair Color Service?

Full hair color—also called single-process or all-over color—covers every strand from roots to ends with a custom shade. It's ideal for refreshing a faded hue, covering grey regrowth, or trying a totally new color without highlights. Our stylists consider your skin tone, lifestyle, and hair history to formulate a tone that flatters you from every angle.

We work with premium professional color lines from Wella and Redken enhanced with Olaplex bond builders to protect hair integrity. Expect luminous shine, silky softness, and a shade that remains vibrant between appointments when paired with our aftercare guidance.

Every Full Color Appointment Includes:

  • Detailed Consultation (10-15 mins): Review inspiration photos, maintenance goals, and select undertones that complement your complexion.
  • Custom Color Formulation: Personalized blend crafted for your starting level, desired depth, and desired finish (natural, glossy, or ultra-vibrant).
  • Precision Application: Section-by-section application to ensure even saturation, seamless coverage, and balanced tone from scalp to ends.
  • Bond Building Protection: Olaplex or K18 mixed into formulas to maintain hair strength during processing.
  • Gloss or Toner Refinement: Applied when needed to seal the cuticle and enhance tone, shine, and longevity.
  • Signature Blowout: Finished styling so you can leave the salon photo-ready.
  • Maintenance Roadmap: Customized timeline for root touch-ups, recommended toners, and home-care products.

Typical Appointment Time: 1.5 - 2.5 hours

Timing varies based on hair density, color change goal, and add-on services like glossing or treatments.

Full Color FAQs

How long will my full hair color last?

Most full color services stay vibrant for 6-8 weeks before roots and tone need refreshing. We schedule maintenance visits based on your natural regrowth rate and the type of formula used so your color always looks intentional.

Can I lighten my hair with a full color service?

Permanent color can lift natural pigment up to two levels. For more dramatic lightening or fashion shades, we may recommend a two-step process that includes lightening first, followed by applying your target tone.

Why do I need a consultation first?

A FREE 20-minute consultation allows us to assess your current hair condition, discuss your color goals, review your hair history, and create a personalized plan. This ensures we recommend the right service and can give you an accurate price quote. The consultation is completely free and helps us achieve the best results for your hair.

What happens during the consultation?

During your consultation, we'll discuss your desired shade, evaluate your hair history and scalp health, assess any previous color treatments, and review inspiration photos. We'll then create a customized color plan and provide an accurate price quote. It helps us select the safest approach and set realistic expectations for results.

How should I prepare for my appointment?

Arrive with dry hair, avoid heavy styling products, and bring any inspiration photos. If you have box dye or henna in your hair, let us know during consultation so we can adjust the formula and timing accordingly.

Do you offer ammonia-free or sensitive-scalp options?

Absolutely. We carry ammonia-free and low-sensitivity formulas that deliver excellent coverage without irritation. Let us know your concerns in advance and we'll prepare a gentle option for you.
