A Full Head Colour is an all over colour service, applied from roots to ends for a consistent, polished finish. It is ideal if you want to refresh a faded shade, go darker, boost richness, or cover greys with a smooth result that still feels like you. Your appointment starts with a proper chat about your current colour, your target shade, and what your hair can comfortably handle, so the end result suits your day to day routine and grows out neatly.

## Full Head Colour, what it includes

A Full Head Colour is designed to give you an even tone all the way through, with a finish that looks deliberate in every light.

-   A consultation to agree your shade, coverage level, and the look you want as it grows out.
-   Colour applied through the full head, with careful sectioning for consistent coverage.
-   A plan for warmth control and shine, so the colour looks clean, not flat or brassy.
-   Condition first choices, if your hair needs a gentler approach or added support.
-   Styling to show the true finish and check the overall tone.
-   Simple aftercare advice, plus a realistic idea of when you might want a refresh.

### Who Full Head Colour works best for

A Full Head Colour is a great fit if you want one clear shade, rather than ribbons of light and dark.

-   You want to go darker, richer, or more uniform, without highlight contrast.
-   You are covering greys and want the result to look natural, not heavy.
-   Your ends look faded or patchy and you want everything brought back into line.
-   You want a clean, glossy finish that is easy to maintain between appointments.

### How your Full Head Colour appointment is delivered

We keep it calm and straightforward, with clear steps and no guesswork.

-   We talk through your colour history, your target shade, and any sensitivities.
-   We choose the right type of colour for your goal, this might be permanent colour for coverage, or a softer gloss approach for a refresh.
-   The colour is applied methodically, then processed and rinsed before finishing.
-   If you are new to colour, or it has been a while since your last colour service, you may be asked to come in for a quick patch test before your appointment.

### Keeping your colour looking fresh after a Full Head Colour

A little planning makes a big difference to how your colour wears.

-   Use colour friendly shampoo and conditioner to help with shine and fade.
-   Book your next refresh based on regrowth and tone, not a fixed schedule.
-   If you notice warmth creeping in, a quick tone and gloss appointment can help keep things looking clean.
-   Ask for a simple home routine that fits your week, especially if you heat style often.

## Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a Full Head Colour and highlights?

A Full Head Colour is one shade applied all over for an even result. Highlights add lighter pieces through the hair, so you see contrast and dimension rather than one uniform tone.

Will a Full Head Colour cover greys?

Yes, full head colour is often chosen for grey coverage because it can create a consistent base shade. We will talk through the level of coverage you want so it looks natural as it grows out.

Do I need a patch test before a Full Head Colour?

If you are new to colour, or you have not had colour for a while, you may need a patch test before your appointment. It is a quick step that helps us colour your hair safely and confidently.

How long will my Full Head Colour last?

It depends on your shade choice, your hair condition, and how often you wash and heat style. You will usually notice regrowth first, and the ends may slowly soften in tone over time.

How should I look after my hair after a Full Head Colour?

Use colour safe products and keep heat styling at a sensible temperature to protect shine. If your hair feels dry, a regular conditioning mask and a trim schedule can help the colour look fresher for longer.
