Root Touch-Up vs Full Colour Beechboro | Alex Royer Salon

Most regrowth appointments don't need a full head of colour. If your lengths still look good, a root touch-up does the job faster, usually costs less, and keeps your ends from being coloured again and again, which is where a lot of damage comes from.

There are times when a full colour is the better call, though. If your lengths have faded or turned brassy, or you're changing shade, then root-only won't give an even result. Be honest with your stylist about how often you colour at home, because that changes what we can do.

When a root touch-up is enough

•     Your lengths still match your shade

•     You're staying within the same colour family

•     It's been about four to eight weeks since your last visit

•     You want to limit damage to your ends

We're about a twenty minute drive from Beechboro, and a quick consult will tell you which option fits. We'd rather recommend the cheaper one when it works.
