All Over Color
Just like it sounds, this is when a single
color is applied over all of the hair at one time.
This gives a fairly uniform look but it can pick-up
some variations from your natural hair color.
Color Retouch
A color retouch is only applied to someone
that has already had an "All Over Color" and
their natural color is growing out. During the
retouch, color is applied at the roots of the
hair to cause the grow out to match the previously
added color.
Color Frost
A frost is the process of adding color to the
hair by first pulling sections of hair through a cap
then applying color. This gives sections of hair a
different color than the base color which is protected
under the cap. This only works with a single color.
Color Weave
A color weave (usually just called a weave) is
done by taking individual strands of hair and applying
color only to that section. The newly colored hair is
protected from teh rest of the hair by wrapping it in
a protective paper or foil. This technique adds a great
deal of depth to the end result. Using a weave multiple
colors can be "woven" into the hair giving a very lively
look. This same method is used to give highlights.
Corrective Color
Corrective colors are the hardest to perform as a stylist.
When someone gets their hair colored and it doesn't turn out
right, they often go to another salon to get it fixed. At this
point, the new stylist has to take a great deal of time to
attempt to take the hair from one color to another. It is the
interaction between different types of color that cause this
process to be so time consuming and difficult to perform.
Color for Men Only
We offer a special type of color just for men. Because men's
hair can be a little different, the chemical process of coloring
needs to be different as well. This special color is applied
just like an "All Over Color" for wormen but interacts with
men's hair in a special way. Because men usually have less hair
the process takes less time to apply and wash out.
Shadow Box
This is a method of coloring the hair around
the edges instead of all over or as a weave.
Often this is applied around the face area leaving
the remainder of the hair another color. Some times
this may also be applied to the ends of the hair.
In any case, the intent is to create a frame or box
that is of a differnet color than the rest of the hair.
Blow Dry
Some times you want your hair to be
dry before you head out of the salon.
We use hand held blow dryers and brushes
to get you looking nice and feeling dry.
