-
Consultation
Your hair history, your goal and your photos. You hear what is realistic and the exact price before anything is mixed.
-
Formula And Application
Color is mixed for your base and sectioned on carefully, roots first where regrowth needs the most time.
-
Processing And Toning
Checked as it develops rather than left on a timer, then toned or glossed to land on the shade you agreed.
-
Finish And Plan
Rinsed, conditioned and blow dried, and you leave knowing when to come back and how to wash it at home.
Color Maintenance Calendar
Typical refresh intervals so you can plan appointments around events rather than chasing them.
| Service | Typical Refresh | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Root Touch Up | Every 4 to 6 weeks | Regrowth starts to show against the colored lengths |
| Gloss And Toner | Every 6 to 8 weeks | Tone fades with washing, sun and hard water |
| All Over Color | Every 6 to 8 weeks | Shade softens and roots grow through |
| Grey Coverage | Every 4 to 6 weeks | Grey regrowth is the most visible at the parting |
| Balayage | Every 3 to 4 months | Hand painted lightness is made to grow out softly |
Intervals are typical ranges. Your stylist sets yours based on your hair growth, your shade and the contrast at your roots.
Before Your Appointment
Color is chemistry, and what is already on your hair changes the result. None of this rules you out, it just changes the plan.
- Any Color In The Last YearBox dye, salon color, henna, bleach or a keratin treatment.
- Past ReactionsIf you have ever reacted to hair color, say so when you book, not on the day.
- Medication Or PregnancyBoth can change how hair takes color, so mention them at the consultation.
- Your Real RoutineHow often you wash, heat style and swim tells us how fast your tone will fade.
How To Arrive
A few small things make the appointment run smoothly and the color land more evenly.
- Day Old HairWash a day or two before rather than the same morning.
- No Heavy ProductSkip oils, masks and dry shampoo on the day.
- Bring PhotosTwo or three you love and one you definitely do not.
- Wear Dark ClothesColor can splash, and gowns only cover so much.
- Allow Enough TimeAround 90 minutes, longer if you are adding a cut or treatment.
Keep Your Color Longer
Most color fades from washing, heat and sun rather than time. These four habits make the biggest difference between appointments.
Give it 48 to 72 hours before the first wash so the color settles.
Gentler on the cuticle, so pigment stays in the hair instead of the drain.
Hot water opens the cuticle and lets tone escape faster.
Always before styling, because heat fades color as fast as washing does.

Hair Color Questions
How Much Is Hair Color At Hotscope?
Hair color starts from $75 and takes about 90 minutes. A root touch up, a gloss, an all over shade or grey coverage are all priced from the consultation, because length, thickness and how far you are changing shade all affect the work involved.
How Often Should I Book A Root Touch Up?
Most clients come back every 4 to 6 weeks for roots, depending on how fast their hair grows and how much contrast there is between the root and the shade.
Can You Cover Grey Hair Completely?
Yes. Full grey coverage uses a permanent color matched to your natural base. If you would rather soften greys than cover them, ask about blending them with lighter pieces instead.
Will Hair Color Damage My Hair?
Color changes the hair structure, so condition matters. Your stylist checks your hair history first, chooses the gentlest formula that will get the result, and will tell you if something needs more than one visit.
I Have Used Box Dye. Can You Still Color My Hair?
Usually yes, but tell your stylist at the consultation. Box dye builds up and can lift unevenly, so it sometimes needs extra steps or a slower plan to get an even result.
What Is The Difference Between A Gloss And A Full Color?
A gloss refreshes tone and adds shine without lifting your natural shade. A full color changes the shade itself and covers grey. Many clients book a gloss between full color appointments.
Should I Wash My Hair Before A Color Appointment?
Arrive with dry, brushed hair, washed a day or two before rather than the same morning, and skip heavy oils or dry shampoo on the day unless your stylist has said otherwise.
Can I Add A Haircut Or Blow Dry To My Color Appointment?
Yes. A haircut after color is the usual order, and the Color Refresh package bundles root color or gloss, a bond treatment, a haircut and a blow dry for $145.
Ready For New Color?
Send a booking request or call the salon. Every color appointment starts with a consultation, so you know the plan, the timing and the price before any color is mixed.
