Change Your Hair Colour At A Professional Hair Salon

At Johnson Blythe Hairdressing Salons, our colourists are highly trained in the art of hair colouring. This means we can create gorgeous hair colours every time. We recommend that you rely on the professionals at our Hertford or Harpenden salons to colour your hair, rather than an at-home dye kit as these can often go wrong.

If you want to change your hair colour from brunette to blonde, it takes more than just bleach! As hair colour experts, we know exactly how to create whatever hair colour you desire. We also have the skills to use all the latest techniques so that your hair colour appears evenly throughout your hair.

The health of your hair is our top priority, so we will always work to protect the integrity and health of your hair during the colouring process to make sure we provide you with the best results.

During your consultation, our skilled staff will assess your hair, explain the hair colour correction process and timings so that you understand our plan to restore your hair colour.

Hair Colour Correction Hertford Hair Salon

Correcting Brassy Hair Tones

Beautiful hair colour is hard to achieve if you’re not hair colour specialists like us! When hair colour is applied incorrectly, you can end up with brassy hair tones, dull hair colour or even ugly bands of overlapping colour.

Luckily, we can fix all these problems – even if you have all of them at once! We will assess your hair in sections and decide which colour correction methods will need to be used on each area to ensure you end up with a gorgeous, even hair colour.

Other common hair colour problems we come across are:

  • Brunette to blonde hair dyes that have turned orange,
  • Blonde hair with green tones,
  • Over-bleached hair with roots that no longer match the rest of the hair colour.

Luckily, we can also resolve all of these issues too!

Balayage Hair Colour Issues

Although we may make applying balayage look easy, it’s actually a lot harder than it seems. We often see people attempt to do their own balayage hair colour at home, which tends to result in disaster. If this has happened to you, don’t worry! Just make sure to book an appointment with us.

Our colourists are highly trained in the latest trends and techniques – including balayage. Balayage is actually one of the more difficult hair colouring techniques as it involves hand-painting the correct lightened shades to the correct areas of the hair to achieve that gorgeous, sun-kissed effect. It involves blending and careful placement that is best achieved by professionals, like the experts at Johnson Blythe.

Box Dye Hair Colour Disasters

You should never judge a book by its cover, which is why you should also never judge a box dye by the picture on its box! Although a DIY home dye kit may seem easy to use, they often don’t create the same colour they advertise. If you’ve dyed your hair at home and it hasn’t turned out the way you wanted, we can help create the colour you were originally after.

Important: Depending on your hair colour problems, it may take more than one hair colour correction appointment to achieve the hair colour that you desire. We will explain everything during your consultation so that you always know what’s going on and what the plan is.

Repairing Over-Bleached Hair

If you have is dry and damaged hair from over-processing, we’ll likely recommend a hair treatment to improve the condition of your hair. Olaplex is a fantastic treatment that helps to strengthen weak and damaged hair. We can even add this hair treatment into the hair colouring process! Your hair will look and feel happier and healthier with an Olaplex hair treatment at our hair salons in Harpenden or Hertford.

What is hair colour correction?

«

Hair colour correction is a specialised service that aims to fix hair colouring issues, whether due to at-home dye disaster, previous salon treatments, or unwanted brassy tones. During your hair colour correction service at our salons in Hertford or Harpenden, our colour technicians will neutralise unwanted shades, working to restore hair health and achieve your desired shade.

How long does hair colour correction take?

«

Colour correction services vary depending on the specific colour you want to change and the condition of the hair. Some colour corrections can take a few hours, whereas others might require multiple appointments. During your colour correction consultation, our colour experts will analyse the unique condition of your hair and create a clear timeline of how long it will take to achieve your desired shade.

Will colour correction damage my hair?

«

At Johnson Blythe Hertford and Harpenden, we prioritise hair health. While colour correction services can take some time, we always work to minimise damage and keep your hair in tip-top condition. We will advise on the best treatments and products to keep your hair nourished and hydrated throughout. If the colour requires a lot of lifting or lightening, we will also take it slowly and advise on the number of treatments needed to achieve the best results and keep your hair healthy.

Can you fix orange or brassy tones?

«

Absolutely! At Johnson Blythe Hertfordshire, we can tone down brassy or orange hues using professional products and techniques. We use a combination of products including toners, lighteners, and rebalancing and clarifying treatments to achieve your desired shade. While brassy and orange hues might take a while to lift, we will use our in-depth colour correction knowledge to find your dream shade.

How can I prepare my hair for a colour correction appointment?

«

Before you visit your chosen Johnson Blythe salon in Hertfordshire for a colour correction appointment, we advise that you avoid all chemical treatments and colouring services in the lead up. Come to your appointment with clean hair, void of any products (like gel, styling sprays, or leave in conditioners.) We also urge you to be honest about your hair history (even those at-home treatments or colours) so that we can create a bespoke action plan and get your hair back on track.

How much will my hair colour correction appointment cost?

«

The cost of your hair colour correction appointment at our Hertford and Harpenden salons will depend on the unique condition of your hair. A hair colour correction service that takes one appointment will cost less than one that needs several. As such, we will need to see the condition of your hair and create a personalised quote. During your hair colour correction consultation we can advise on an action plan and estimate how many appointments it will take to achieve your desired colour.

Will colour correction achieve my desired shade?

«

While our experienced colour technicians will do their absolute best to achieve your desired colour, results may vary based on your hair’s current condition, colour, and previous treatments. We will always work closely with you to get as close as possible to your ideal shade.

Do I need a patch test before a hair colour correction service?

«

Yes. If you haven't had your hair coloured at Johnson Blythe in the past 6 months, we kindly ask that you pop in for a patch test. This helps us keep you safe and ensure that you aren't allergic to any of our products.
