A root tint targets regrowth only, blending new growth and greys into your existing shade for a seamless, natural result. Expect a bespoke formula, careful application and a finish that looks fresh yet effortless. ## What's Included Every step is personalised to your hair and colour goals. - Consultation to assess regrowth, grey coverage and scalp sensitivity. - Exact shade match to your mid lengths and ends for a seamless blend. - Protective barrier and precise sectioning for clean, comfortable application. - Targeted tint on regrowth only to avoid banding and colour build up. - Processing checked throughout for even coverage and healthy shine. - Cleanse and condition to seal colour and smooth the cuticle. - Finish and aftercare guidance to help your colour last. ### Who It's For Perfect if you want to keep your signature colour consistent from root to tip. Ideal for softening or fully covering greys and blending new growth without changing your overall look. It also suits those maintaining balayage or highlights who prefer a tidy root area and a refined, low maintenance result. If you are seeking a major colour change, we will recommend an alternative colour service. ### Duration & Appointment Timing Your appointment includes time for consultation, precise application and controlled processing. Timing varies with hair density, regrowth and desired shade, and your stylist will guide you. If you plan to add a cut or styling, allow additional time so everything feels relaxed and unhurried. ### Aftercare & Maintenance Wait a day or two before your first wash to help the colour settle. Use sulphate free, colour safe shampoo and conditioner, and rinse with lukewarm water to preserve shine. Protect hair from heat with a styling shield and reduce UV fade with protective products. Most clients refresh roots every 4 to 6 weeks for grey coverage, or every 6 to 8 weeks if contrast is softer. A gloss or toner between visits can refine tone and add radiance.

So much care and attention throughout. At the consultation Sydney made sure she completely understood what I liked and honestly advised what would suit me to ensure I would be happy with the result. She exceeded my expectations with the end result, I’m so happy with my hair, beautifully blended and suits my colouring. Was so well looked after during my colour and cut was so pampering.

Highly recommend :) - A Anne-Mairead Folan > Can’t recommend The Vintage Avenue highly enough! Everyone there is SO welcoming and lovely. Want to especially mention Jayne and Chloe who were so fab to chat to and did the best job of my hair - have never been so pleased with the colour after years of trying to achieve a certain blonde! They both took their time to really understand what I wanted and looking forward to my next appointment 😊 Show all reviews - J Jo Brett > Just visited the lovely team at Vintage Avenue. The very talented Chloe has been blending my greys — not hiding them and I’ve walked out with the prettiest silver hair. I absolutely LOVE it! 😍 - S Sarah Moore > Chloe has been my colourist for years, and I never knew it was possible to have the perfect hair experience every single time!

Jayne absolutely nailed my root touch-up and toner — she knew exactly what I wanted. Eliza styled my hair beautifully with the straighteners and left me with stunning curls. 10/10 — highly recommend! ## Frequently Asked Questions How often should I book a root tint? Most clients return every 4 to 6 weeks for grey coverage, or 6 to 8 weeks if the colour contrast is softer. Your stylist will suggest a schedule that suits your hair growth and lifestyle. Will a root tint cover my greys? Yes. We can achieve anything from soft blending to full coverage, matched to your existing tone. Application targets the regrowth only for a natural, seamless result. Can I change my shade with a root tint? Subtle shifts are possible, such as slightly warmer or cooler tones. For a significant lightening or a full colour change, a different colour service is recommended and can be planned at consultation. Will a root tint damage my hair? Root tinting uses modern formulas and precise placement to protect the lengths and ends. Conditioning care is applied after colour, and we will recommend at home products to keep hair healthy and glossy. Do I need a skin test before colour? A skin sensitivity test may be required before your first colour service or if it has been a while since your last. It is a quick step to ensure your safety and comfort.
