Root Blend creates a soft, natural root that diffuses into your existing colour for seamless regrowth and a polished, wearable finish. It refines highlights, softens contrast and can be tailored for subtle or fuller grey coverage, while keeping hair looking healthy and glossy.

What's Included
A carefully planned root colour service focused on seamless blending and hair health.
- Personal consultation and shade mapping with honest recommendations.
- Allergy alert test where required.

Who It's For
If you love the look of fresh colour but want softer, more wearable regrowth, Root Blend is for you. It is ideal for highlighted or balayaged hair that needs a gentle shadow at the root, and for anyone seeking natural looking grey coverage without a blocky line.
Suitable for blondes, brunettes and coppers seeking refined, believable dimension. It is a great choice if you prefer low maintenance colour that still looks premium between visits.
Duration & Appointment Timing
Allow around 105 minutes for a standard Root Blend. Your first visit or more complex colour histories may require extra time for shade matching or additional toning.
Most clients refresh every 6 to 10 weeks, aligning Root Blend appointments with highlight or foil cycles as needed. Rebooking ahead keeps your plan predictable and diary friendly.
Aftercare & Maintenance
Use colour safe shampoo and conditioner, and rinse with lukewarm water to help preserve tone. Always apply heat protection before styling and minimise high heat where possible.
Book toner or gloss top ups on the lengths every 4 to 8 weeks to keep the result glossy and balanced. Protect hair from UV and chlorine, and avoid harsh clarifying products soon after your appointment.
An allergy alert test may be required at least 48 hours before tint services, especially if you are new or it has been over six months since your last colour. For personalised product advice or to plan your refresh, book a consultation.
