More information

What's Included

A considered process designed around your hair and desired result.

  • Personal consultation to understand your goals and hair history.
  • Custom shade selection and formula for natural or richer results.
  • Scalp and hair protection before application.
  • Precise full head application for even root to tip coverage.
  • Processing carefully timed and checked.
  • Professional cleanse and condition to seal colour and add shine.
  • Aftercare advice and a simple maintenance plan.

Who It's For

If you want consistent all over colour, dependable grey coverage and a refined finish, this service is for you. It suits anyone maintaining a signature shade or seeking a subtle, polished change.

If you are after significant lightening or lots of dimension, you may prefer a highlighting or balayage service. A full head tint gives uniform tone rather than multi tonal effects.

Duration & Appointment Timing

Allow around 1.5 to 2 hours for consultation, application and processing. Long or very thick hair may need a little more time.

A skin test is required at least 48 hours before your first tint appointment. If you would like a cut and blow-dry, book it with your colour so enough time is allowed.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Wait 48 hours before your first shampoo to let the colour settle. Use a sulphate-free, colour-safe shampoo and conditioner. Always apply heat protection before styling.

Refresh roots every 4 to 6 weeks to keep coverage consistent. Mid-lengths and ends usually need a colour refresh every 6 to 8 weeks, or a shine glaze between visits.

Limit hot tool use, protect hair from sun and chlorine, and nourish weekly with a mask to maintain softness and shine.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a full head tint?
It is an all over colour applied from roots to ends for a consistent shade and finish. The formula is chosen to suit your hair, from soft, translucent tone to full coverage.
Will a full head tint cover grey hair?
Yes, permanent tint gives reliable grey coverage while keeping the result natural. Shade choice and technique are tailored to blend or fully cover, depending on your preference.
Can a full head tint lighten my hair?
Permanent colour can lift natural hair a few levels, but it will not create the brightness or dimension of highlights. For significant lightening, a foiling or lightening service is recommended.
How long will the colour last?
You can expect regrowth to appear from 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your hair growth. Using colour-safe products and heat protection helps the tone stay fresh for longer.
Do I need a skin test?
Yes, a skin test for colour sensitivity is required before your first tint, and after long gaps or product changes. It is quick and helps ensure your comfort and safety.
