In the instance of a colour service, you will attend a preliminary consultation in-salon where you will be skin-tested no less than 48 hours and no longer than 2 weeks before a first colour service or where a product change is required.
Skin-testing will be repeated as deemed appropriate.

We endeavour to achieve a colour result as close to the target tone/shade as possible. Due to the individuality and uniqueness of each person’s hair type and make-up, colour services are undertaken with the understanding that the final results may differ from the target colour.
In the event that you are not satisfied with your colour, the salon will be notified, and a follow-up appointment attended within two weeks of the original service. In the first instance, the follow-up consultation will be scheduled. If hair has been subsequently coloured at another salon or at home before completion of the follow-up consultation and assessment of the hair, we reserve the right to refuse a re-colour or offer a refund for the disputed service.
