All About Hair Colour Correction At Johnson Blythe Hair Salons In Hertford & Harpenden 

Ever had a hair colour faux pas? If so, you're certainly not alone. Many of us have faced the horrors of a box dye gone wrong or visited an unknown salon only to leave with a colour that was very much not part of the plan. If you're living with a hair colour that doesn't make you feel fabulous or have found that your blonde tones are turning brassy, you might be in need of our expert colour correction services. Our dedicated colour technicians will get your hair back to its former glory in no time. We always work to ensure that you leave our salons with a look you adore. 

Please Note: As a salon that puts client safety first. We kindly ask that those who haven't had a colour service with us in the past 6 months pop in for a quick allergy patch test before their hair colour appointment.  

Understanding Hair Colour Correction at Johnson Blythe Hertfordshire

Hair colour correction is a specialised technique whereby our colour technicians fix hair colour mishaps. Whether it's from a DIY job gone wrong or a previous colour that has faded or turned brassy, colour correction restores your hair to your desired shade.

The process begins with a thorough consultation, where our stylists assess your hair's condition and colour history. From there, they may use a range of products including toners,  colour removers, or even gentle bleach to strip unwanted brassy hues or even out the colour. For darker colours, stylists might opt for a clarifying treatment first. 

Once the old colour has been adjusted, our stylists will apply the new colour, often finishing with a deep conditioning treatment to keep your hair healthy and vibrant. Colour correction can take a few appointments, depending on how dramatic the change is, but it’s worth it to get your hair back to looking its best. Doing so professionally, ensures you get the best results. 

Top Tips for Successful Colour Correction

These top tips from our hair experts will ensure that your colour correction appointments go successfully!

1. Always be honest about your hair colour history! Whether you've used box dye or bleached at home, the more information we have, the better we can tailor the process to achieve the best result for you.

2. Be patient: Colour correction might not be completed in just one session, especially for darker tones. It’s a journey, and your expert Johnson Blythe stylist will guide you through each step.

3. Prep your hair: Before your appointment, keep your hair hydrated and use salon-grade treatments. We can recommend products to keep your hair soft and radiant between salon visits.

4. Skip heat styling tools: Colour correction can be tough on hair, so let it dry naturally where possible, especially if we’re working to fix a recent colour mishap.
