- 03Your colour plan: I’ll write up the steps, how many appointments it will take, how long each will be, and what it will cost. You can then book your full appointment.
Ideal for: Going lighter or darker, correcting a home-colour mishap, fixing patchy, brassy or faded colour, or anyone who wants to know exactly what they’re getting before committing.

- 02Hair check & colour match: I’ll check your hair type, thickness and condition, and match the shade and texture so the extensions blend in naturally.
