Finding Your Perfect Hair Colour
Skin tone, eye colour and lifestyle: how we design colour that genuinely suits you.
The right hair colour does more than follow a trend. It brightens your skin, brings out your eyes and still looks beautiful eight weeks after your appointment.
Finding it is part science and part conversation.
Start with undertone
Warm undertones tend to glow next to honey, copper and golden brunette. Cool undertones are often flattered by ash, beige and deep espresso shades. Neutral undertones can move freely between the two. We assess this in natural daylight, never under salon spotlights alone.
Be honest about maintenance
A high-contrast blonde needs regular toning and root work. A lived-in balayage can be left for three or four months. Neither is better. The best colour is the one that suits your diary as well as your face.
Always patch test
Every new colour client has a skin test at least 48 hours before their appointment, even if they've coloured their hair elsewhere. It takes five minutes and it matters.
