Color correction, done safely.
For previously colored hair that didn't turn out the way you hoped. Box-color rebuilds. Brassiness resets. Bleed-through fixes. Always staged, always consultation-first.
Correction isn't a service. It's a rescue.
Color correction is the most complex service in any salon. It's not "color but harder" — it's a completely different category of work that requires reading what's already happened to the hair, planning a multi-stage lift, and managing the chemistry around damage that's already been done.
That's why we never book corrections without a 30-minute in-person consultation first. Photos lie. Phone descriptions lie. Even your best memory of what was applied to your hair last year usually lies. We need to see your hair under salon lighting, do strand tests, ask twenty questions, and design a real plan.
Sometimes the plan is one session. Sometimes it's three sessions over two months. Sometimes — honestly — we recommend waiting for hair to grow and cutting the old color off rather than chemically correcting it. The right answer depends entirely on what we see at consultation.
Three correction scenarios.
These are the most common reasons clients book correction. Every quote is custom — these are starting ranges only.
For brassiness, banding, or wrong tone on otherwise healthy hair. Lift + gloss to reset the canvas. Usually one appointment.
- Single-session usually
- 3-4 hour appointment
- For tone-only issues
- No structural damage
For at-home dye that needs to come out. Color remover or careful lift over multiple sessions to protect the hair from damage.
- Often 2-3 sessions
- 4-6 hour first session
- Bond builder included
- Recovery treatments between
For severely compromised hair from previous chemical work. Stage-by-stage rebuild over several months. May include cuts to remove compromised ends.
- Multi-month timeline
- May require cuts
- Strengthening protocols
- Realistic expectation setting
All correction pricing is finalized at consultation. We will never quote you a correction price over the phone — there are too many variables we need to see in person.
How correction actually works.
Every correction follows this same three-phase structure, regardless of how complex the case is.
Consultation
30-minute in-person assessment. Strand tests, history interview, photo review of what happened, and a written multi-stage plan with a firm quote.
Stage & Protect
Each correction session uses bond builder, controlled lift, and frequent check-ins on integrity. We stop if the hair starts struggling — no exceptions.
Recovery + Maintenance
Between sessions, you get strengthening treatments to do at home. After correction, we transition you to a maintenance schedule with your formula logged.
We'll say no when needed.
The biggest difference between a good correction salon and a great one is the willingness to say "we shouldn't do this today." Most salons will take any correction client who walks in with a credit card, because corrections are profitable. We won't.
If your hair can't safely handle the correction you're asking for, we'll tell you. We'll recommend either a longer staged plan, a different approach, or — sometimes — waiting and growing it out instead. Telling clients the honest answer is what makes correction work succeed.
