What is Hair Color Correction?

Hair Color Correction is a specialized technique used to rectify and improve hair color issues that may have occurred due to previous coloring treatments or mistakes. It requires skill, experience, and a deep understanding of color theory to correct any undesirable tones, unevenness, or discrepancies in your hair color.

Types of Hair Color Correction

  1. Toning Down Brassy Hair: Over time, some hair colors may develop a brassy or orange tint. Color correction helps neutralize these unwanted undertones, bringing back a more natural and balanced color.
  2. Fixing Uneven Color: If you've experienced uneven color distribution after a previous coloring session, we can use color correction to create a more seamless and uniform appearance.
  3. Removing Overly Dark Color: In cases where the hair has been colored too dark, we can perform color correction to lighten the shade and achieve the desired color level.
  4. Correcting Overlapping Colors: When multiple colors have been applied one after the other, it may lead to a chaotic mix. Color correction helps in harmonizing the colors and achieving a beautiful, cohesive look.
  5. Restoring Hair Health: Frequent coloring or using harsh products can damage hair. With color correction, we can also focus on repairing and rejuvenating your hair for a healthier overall look.

Hair Color FAQs

What hair color suits my skin tone?
Finding the right hair color that suits your skin tone can enhance your overall appearance and complement your features. Here are some general guidelines to help you determine which hair color might suit your skin tone.  
  1. Warm Skin Tones: Characteristics: Warm skin tones usually have undertones that are yellow, peachy, or golden.
  2. Suitable Hair Colors: Opt for hair colors with warm undertones like golden blonde, honey blonde, caramel brown, auburn, copper, and rich chocolate brown.
  3. Cool Skin Tones: Characteristics: Cool skin tones often have undertones that are pink, red, or bluish.
  4. Suitable Hair Colors: Consider hair colors with cool undertones such as platinum blonde, ash blonde, ash brown, cool brown, jet black, and burgundy.
  5. Neutral Skin Tones: Characteristics: Neutral skin tones have a balance of warm and cool undertones, making them versatile with various hair colors.
  6. Suitable Hair Colors: Those with neutral skin tones can experiment with a wide range of hair colors, including warm and cool shades.
  7. Consider Your Eye Color: Take your eye color into account when choosing a hair color. Certain colors can make your eyes pop and add harmony to your overall look.
  8. Skin Undertones: Check the veins on your wrist. If they appear greenish, you likely have warm undertones. If they appear bluish, you likely have cool undertones. If you can't clearly determine the color, you might have a neutral undertone.
  9. Gold vs. Silver: Pay attention to whether gold or silver jewelry complements your skin better. If gold looks better, you may have warm undertones, and if silver looks better, you may have cool undertones.
  10. Seek Professional Advice: If you're unsure about which hair color suits your skin tone best, consider consulting a professional hairstylist or colorist. They can analyze your skin tone and help you choose a hair color that flatters you.
Remember that these are general guidelines, and personal preferences play a significant role in choosing the right hair color. Ultimately, the best hair color is the one that makes you feel confident and happy. So, feel free to experiment and have fun finding your perfect hair color!
