Appointment length varies by hair length and complexity; expect 90 minutes to 3 hours including consultation, color application, processing time, and finishing. Clients with extensive correction may require additional time or a follow-up appointment for best results.

Full Color itself doesn't inherently cause more damage; impact depends on your hair's condition and the lift required. We use professional formulas, bonding treatments, and customized processing to minimize damage and recommend care plans to protect hair health.

To lock in color, wait 48 to 72 hours before shampooing when possible. Use cool water and sulfate-free products thereafter to preserve vibrancy. Your stylist will recommend a tailored home-care plan and professional products to extend color life.

A dramatic change often requires lightening steps that may not be safe in a single visit without risking damage. We prioritize hair health, so complex transformations may be staged across appointments with conditioning treatments to achieve ideal results.

Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners, wash with cool water, and limit washing to preserve pigment. Apply heat protectant before styling and schedule color-safe touch-ups, gloss treatments, and conditioning masks to keep color vibrant between salon visits.

Pricing varies by hair length, density, desired change, and stylist level. At Deluxe Hair Salon Full Color services typically start around $85 for short hair and can range up to $250 or more for long hair or major corrections. Consultations provide exact quotes.
