Semi-Permanent: Want a gentle boost of color with no "roots"? Semi-permanent hair coloring might be great for you. Sometimes called glazing, color stains or washes, these can boost hair shine and texture by coating the hair with a non-peroxide hair color that washes out naturally over 4-6 weeks. Semi-permanent hair color can only darken the hair and it will cover gray hair temporarily. These hair color rinses can help tame hair frizzies and actually may look like you have a healthier hair appearance. It is gentle on your hair, and a low risk way to "try out" a new hair color.

Partial Highlights: Color is applied to specific strands of hair in a limited area, i.e. crown only.

Full Head: Color is applied to specific strands of hair to add texture and dimension.

Hair Color Categories And Descriptions

Permanent Hair Color- Oxidative dye that penetrates the cuticle of the hair into the cortical layer. The natural hair color is altered until it is cut off, grown out, or colored again. Many of the color lines that we use contain patented conditioning agents and ingredients to keep the integrity of the hair healthy and shiny.

Highlight or Lowlight- Permanent shades of color, light or dark, is applied to the hair using various techniques to create streaks or chunks of color on natural hair color. The effect is a multi dimensional color that can look natural and sophisticated, or fun and bold. This is great for both the timid and the outgoing.

Semi-permanent Hair Color- This color is formulated to last from shampoo to shampoo. The dye stains the surface of the hair (the cuticle) and contains no peroxide. This is a good start for those who are reluctant to change their hair color permanently.

Demi-permanent Hair Color- A deposit only color treatment that lasts up to 8 weeks and is ammonia free. It imparts natural looking color with incredible shine and condition. Blends gray hair and gradually fade on tone. Perfect for adding a little spice to your look.

High Lift Blonde- It is used on any level of natural hair color for maximum lightening. The natural hair pigment goes through different stages of color as it lightens. Depending on the color you want to achieve, this may take several applications. Toners are used in the final stage when delicate shades of blonde are desired. This is for those who aren't afraid to make a statement.

Toner- It is used to balance pre-lightened hair, or to blend gray hair. This can be the final shade of a High Lift Blonde. Some toners are permanent colors in pale, delicate colors. Other toners used can be semi-permanent or demi-permanent hair colors.

Custom Color- When the stylist combines several application techniques and may use more than one color.
