Before Your Appointment

Setting your hair up for success

Please come to your appointment with inspiration images — or better yet, send them through prior.

This allows us to:

  • Understand your vision clearly

  • Offer realistic guidance

  • Prepare for your service appropriately


Clean Hair = Better Results

Think of your hair like a paint canvas.

You wouldn’t paint on something oily or dirty — and hair is no different.

For best results

  • Hair should be clean and dry

  • Avoid heavy oils, dry shampoo, or styling residue

  • Wash your hair the night before or morning of your appointment

Clarify Before Colour

We recommend using a clarifying shampoo for your last wash before a colour appointment.

This removes product build-up, minerals, and residue, allowing colour to perform evenly and predictably.


Avoid Plex or Bonding Products

Please avoid plex or bonding systems for one week prior to your colour appointment.

These products can affect how colour absorbs and develops, and we want the cleanest canvas possible for your service.


Confirm Your Appointment

Please ensure your appointment is confirmed and your deposit is secured prior to arrival.

This allows us to reserve the appropriate time, products, and expertise for your booking.

After Your Appointment

Protecting your hair investment

Hair Needs a Regime — Just Like Skin

You wouldn’t invest in great skin without a skincare routine — and your hair is no different.

Professional results require professional aftercare.


Personalised Aftercare Advice

After your appointment, we’ll guide you on:

  • The right products for your hair and colour

  • Correct tools and equipment

  • Suitable brushes

  • Styling techniques to protect your hair

These recommendations are designed to maintain your result, not overwhelm you.


What to Expect Post-Appointment

In the days and weeks following your service:

Your hair may respond differently as it settles

Colour tone and condition stabilise with correct care

Consistent home care extends the life of your service

This is completely normal — and we’ll guide you through it.


The Takeaway

When your hair is prepared correctly and cared for afterward, the results are better, last longer, and stay healthier over time.

We’re here to guide you — every step of the way

Your only as good as the people you surround yourself with.

Over the years — through competitions, photo shoots, editorial work, and ongoing education — it’s been my friends and clients who have continually put their hands up, trusted the process, and supported the journey.

I’m forever grateful to each of you.
