Cut and colour consultation
The consultation covers current colour, chemical history, breakage, porosity, scalp symptoms, desired result and realistic maintenance. Reference images help communicate shape and tone, but the result also depends on the starting base and hair condition.
Colour selection and allergy precautions
Permanent and oxidative dyes can cause irritant or allergic contact dermatitis. Product instructions and patch-testing requirements should be followed, especially after a previous reaction, black henna tattoo or long break from colouring.
Burning, marked itching or swelling during colour application is a reason to stop and rinse rather than wait for the processing time to finish.
Reducing breakage and heat damage
Bleaching, straightening and frequent high heat can weaken the hair shaft. The service plan may need fewer chemical steps, a darker target, staged lightening or a lower-maintenance cut when the hair is already compromised.
When the scalp needs assessment first
Painful inflammation, open sores, heavy scaling, sudden hair fall or patchy loss should be assessed before colouring. Styling can improve appearance but does not treat the cause of hair loss or scalp disease.
Questions patients often ask
Do I need a patch test before hair colour?
Follow the product instructions and professional advice. A previous uneventful colour does not guarantee that allergy will never develop.
Can damaged hair be lightened?
It may need to be postponed or staged. Strand condition and breakage risk should be assessed first.
Can colour cause hair fall?
Chemical damage can cause breakage, while a severe scalp reaction can contribute to shedding. New loss should be assessed.
Can extensions be cut and coloured?
Sometimes, depending on the fibre and attachment. Extension-specific limits should be checked first.
