    We review inspiration photos, your skin tone and your hair's colour history in English.
  2. Strand & scalp check

    We test how your hair lifts and check the scalp before any chemical.
  3. Protective prep

    Bond-protecting and scalp-shield products go on before colour or bleach.
  4. Application

    Colour, foils or hand-painting applied section by section.
  5. Toning & gloss

  6. Wash, care & finish

    A colour-care rinse and a blow-dry to show the true result.
