Gray coverage and root touch-ups

Gray coverage can keep you close to your natural shade or be part of a change in color. Your formula is mixed for your hair, taking your current shade and the coverage you want into account.

If you like the color you already have, a root touch-up focuses on new growth. Mention any change you have noticed through the lengths as well, so that can be considered before the color is applied.

Most color clients return every four to six weeks. How much regrowth you are comfortable with and how often you want an appointment are worth discussing when choosing your shade.

Wella hair color for the look you want

Stay with a shade you love or make a change

Your color can be a familiar part of your look or a chance to try something different. Wella is the color line used at the salon, with a formula mixed for your desired shade and coverage.

If you have a different color in mind, bring an example or a photo of your own hair at a shade you liked. Your current color and previous treatments help determine what is possible.

Color services for women and men

Gray coverage is available for women and men. The starting point is the coverage and color you want, with the same color service available to both.

Partial highlights are also on the menu for adding variation in your color. If you are unsure which service matches the change you want, call or text before booking.

Your first color appointment

Start with what is on your hair now, including color used at home, previous highlights and recent chemical treatments. That history helps guide the appointment, even if the work was done somewhere else.

You don’t need to know the name of a formula or a technical service. Explain the shade you want and any concerns about coverage or upkeep.

Your color is mixed and applied, then left to process before washing and finishing. Allow about two hours in total; the services you choose affect the timing. Check whether your booking includes the finish you want, such as the listed color-with-blow-dry option.

For a haircut as well, compare the haircut options or curly haircut appointments and confirm what to book.
