Most clients return every four to six weeks depending on hair growth and color contrast. Fine regrowth can allow longer intervals, while high contrast shades or rapid gray growth may need touch ups more often to maintain a seamless polished look.

When performed by our experienced stylists using professional formulas, root touch ups cause minimal damage. We recommend conditioning treatments and ammonia-free options when possible to preserve hair integrity and strength over time.

Yes, we strive to match your existing color precisely. Bring a current photo and arrive with clean, unstyled hair for accurate color matching; sometimes slight adjustments or a toner are applied to ensure a perfect blend.

A typical root touch up takes about forty five to sixty minutes, including consultation, application, processing and quick finishing. Exact time varies by hair density, root area size and whether a toner or gloss is applied afterward.

We require or recommend a patch test for first-time color clients and those with sensitive skin or allergy history. A patch test reduces risk and ensures product compatibility; it can be done before or at your scheduled appointment.

Root touch ups are focused on regrowth coverage, not full color changes. If you're considering a new shade, we’ll recommend a consultation or full color service to adjust tone, depth or overall color for best results.
