Left Nicolas Ablitt feeling and looking 20 years younger, the colour Nicolas used to cover my greys is so natural looking and he corrected my OAP hairstyle. A good point to note also is the fact you pay for the senior stylist and you get the whole service done by the senior stylist ( apart from the hair wash) you don't get passed to another member of staff to finish you off which I have experienced in other hairdressers which annoys me. So glad I have found my new colourist/stylist. Also I must comment on the fact as a person who has neck issues I could have happily sat at the basin for ages as it was the most comfortable experience I have had when getting my hair washed. Very happy 😁” — Claire ![Woman with a sleek, glossy dark bob haircut and flawless makeup, wearing a white top.

You will begin with a consultation to agree your goal shade, coverage, and upkeep level. We work methodically for an even result and a clean finish. Before you leave, you will get practical guidance on maintaining tone and shine at home. Is hair colouring suitable if I am covering greys or refreshing faded colour? Yes, hair colouring can be tailored to improve coverage and rebalance tone where colour has dulled or grown out. We will recommend an approach that looks natural and suits your hair’s condition. The aim is a result that stays flattering between visits. How long will my hair colour last and what affects it? Longevity depends on your starting shade, hair porosity, washing habits, heat styling, and sun exposure. Using colour-safe products and moderating heat will help preserve vibrancy. We will suggest a maintenance plan that fits your routine. Will hair colouring damage my hair? When chosen and applied correctly, hair colouring can be carried out with care for the hair’s condition. We assess strength and previous colour history, then tailor the process to support softness and shine. Aftercare plays a key role in keeping hair feeling healthy. How should I prepare for, and look after, my hair colour? Arrive with a clear idea of your goal and be ready to discuss past colour and any sensitivities. After your appointment, avoid over-washing, use professional colour-protect shampoo and conditioner, and limit high heat. Regular trims and conditioning help keep the finish looking fresh.
