Your provider should show valid licenses. Ask how long they have worked in the field. Certification ensures safety training. Check their studio reviews online. Do not trust word of mouth only. Confirm their knowledge of patch testing. New chemicals start with a small 24 hour test behind your ear. Do not skip the test if you have sensitive skin.
Do not wash your hair 24 hours before coloring. Natural oils protect the scalp. Avoid product buildup for perms. Bring your brush if you cut at home. Wear dark clothing to protect fabric. Check for existing product mixes. Some serums react badly with ammonia. Mention oils used at home. This prevents foaming during application.
Fresh tint lasts 4 to 6 weeks before fading. Semi-permanent color washes out in 5 to 8 washes. Permanent tone requires reapplication every 4 to 6 weeks to cover roots. Your stylist explains pigment depth. Lighter shades fade faster. Ensure the product grade matches your goal. Budget for reapplication every 4 to 6 weeks.
Do not buy random shampoo at the store. The salon sells specific aftercare lines. These maintain the treatment bond. Using wrong products ruins the investment. Buy the recommended conditioner. It has pH near 4.5. Daily use keeps hair smooth. Check the price before agreeing. It adds to the total cost.
Many treatments require 48 hours without washing. Shampoo strips the new chemical structure. Use sulfate-free shampoo only. Wash gently. Do not rub your scalp. Massage lightly. This preserves the treatment layer. Breaking this rule reduces effectiveness by half. Your hair feels dry soon.
Ask the stylist to check for itching, flaking, or redness before applying products. A sensitive scalp reacts to ammonia or peroxide quickly. You may feel burning within 5 minutes. Stop immediately if pain turns sharp. Healing takes 2 to 3 days. Ignore this and you risk infection or hair loss.
Root gap appears when regrowth is visible. Your stylist should color 3 mm of new growth. Too much product damages old strands. Overlapping causes brittleness. Your mid-lengths feel like straw. They snap under tension. Mention this during booking. Your stylist lowers the developer volume. This saves your cuticle layer and prevents breakage at the crown.
Pricing varies by hair density and length. Long hair costs more due to product volume. Thick strands require more chemical processing. Ask for a written estimate before starting. Compare local quotes. Keep the receipt for warranty work. Do not accept verbal guesses. Price changes happen if hair is thicker than estimated. Get clarity on extra strands.
Your stylist should check scalp health before any treatment. Look for signs of dandruff, oil buildup, or breakage. Ask if your hair needs a keratin repair bond or just a wash cut. Untreated breakage weakens the structure and affects results. A visual inspection is non-negotiable. If they skip that, walk away. You need a baseline. Without it, costs rise later.
Treatments cannot fix split ends. They only hide them temporarily. Ask the stylist to trim them first. Cutting damaged sections stops further breakage. They recommend trimming every 3 months. If they skip this, splits climb the shaft. This makes hair look thin and brittle. Ask for the scissor work.
