04 - Good to know

Before you book colour

  1. 1

    Patch test first

    Legally required, 48 hours before. Pop in, it takes two minutes.

  2. 2

    Bring pictures

    Both what you want and what you do not. The second is more useful than people expect.

  3. 3

    We will be honest

    If your hair will not get there in one appointment, we will say so before you book it.

Example review

“Rosie told me it would take two appointments to get out of the box dye. It did, and it was worth it. First colour I have not hated at eight weeks.”
