More information

What's Included

A focused, fuss free refresh that respects hair health.

  • Personal colour consultation and shade match.
  • Choice of permanent or demi for full coverage or soft blending.
  • Protective skin barrier and careful sectioning for a clean result.
  • Precise application to the regrowth zone only.
  • Timed processing to avoid banding and keep hair healthy.
  • Gentle cleanse and colour locking conditioner for softness and shine.
  • Toner or gloss through mid lengths if needed for a perfect blend.
  • Option to add a cut or blow-dry finish.
  • Home care guidance and a clear rebooking window.

Who It's For

Ideal if natural roots or greys are showing and you want them covered or softened without a full colour service. It suits anyone who wants their existing colour maintained and looking fresh.

It is not the right choice for dramatic lightening or a major colour change. If you are aiming for brighter lift or multi dimensional tones, highlights or balayage will be recommended.

Duration & Appointment Timing

Allow about 60 to 75 minutes for consultation, application and processing. Add 30 to 45 minutes if you are booking a blow-dry or a cut and finish.

Most clients book every four to six weeks for grey coverage. If you prefer a softer blend or your greys are sparse, six to eight weeks can work.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Use colour safe shampoo and conditioner, keep water warm not hot and finish with a cool rinse to boost shine. Always use heat protection when styling.

Avoid daily washing. Two to three times a week is a good routine, with a weekly hydrating mask to keep hair soft.

A salon gloss can refresh mid lengths if they fade before your next root tint. Avoid overlapping colour at home to prevent banding, and book your next visit before you leave to keep roots discreet.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a regrowth tint?
It is professional colour applied only to your new growth to match your existing shade or blend greys. It keeps roots tidy and your colour looking seamless between larger colour services.
Will a regrowth tint cover grey hair?
Yes. We select the right shade and formulation to give reliable coverage, with a soft, natural finish rather than a heavy block of colour.
How often should I book a regrowth tint?
For grey coverage, every four to six weeks keeps regrowth discreet. For softer blending or less visible regrowth, six to eight weeks may suit you.
Can a regrowth tint lighten my natural colour?
A tint can refine tone and give a small lift on some hair, but it will not create a big colour change. For noticeable lightening, highlights or balayage are better options.
How can I help the colour last longer?
Use colour safe shampoo, avoid very hot water and always apply heat protection. Wash two to three times a week and add a weekly mask or in salon gloss to maintain shine and tone.
