Permanent Tint & Touch Up
Seamless Root Coverage for Continuous Color
Maintain your beautiful color with our permanent tint and touch-up service. Perfect for covering new growth, gray hair, or maintaining your existing shade, this service focuses on the root area to seamlessly blend with your current color. It's the ideal maintenance solution between full color applications, keeping you looking polished and put-together.
Understanding Root Touch-Ups
Root touch-ups are essential for maintaining colored hair, typically needed every 4-6 weeks as your natural hair grows. This service applies permanent color to the new growth area (usually 1-2 inches from the scalp), perfectly matching your existing color for an undetectable blend. It's a quick, efficient way to keep your color looking fresh without processing your entire head.

Gray Coverage Expertise
Covering gray hair requires special expertise, as gray strands are often more resistant to color. Melissa's technique ensures:
- Pre-softening resistant grays when needed
- Proper developer selection for optimal coverage
- Extended processing time for stubborn grays
- Natural-looking results that don't appear flat or dull
- Long-lasting coverage that won't fade quickly
Maintenance Schedule
Recommended Timeline:
- Fast-growing hair: Every 3-4 weeks
- Average growth: Every 4-6 weeks
- Slow-growing hair: Every 6-8 weeks
- High gray percentage: Every 3-5 weeks
- Minimal gray: Every 5-7 weeks
Regular appointments prevent the "skunk stripe" effect and maintain your polished look.
