BASE / GLOBAL COLOUR
For one colour all over - from chocolate brown to plum, to clean platinum blonde
How: We’ll tailor make a colour to suit you and your skin tone, before expertly applying it in a single process - we usually begin by applying to the roots before taking through the ends. There are a few different global colours to consider:
- PERMANENT: If you have unwanted greys a permanent colour can work wonders - offering up to 100% coverage. Permanent colour also packs more of a punch than demi-permanent, meaning it can lighten a few shades or dramatically darken. Maintenance: Regrowth will need touch-ups every 4 - 7 weeks.
- DEMI-PERMANENT: A little gentler on the hair and on the maintenance! A demi is designed to fade as it grows out. It can still offer good grey coverage and beautiful, multi-dimensional colour. Maintenance: To keep hair looking rich and glossy, your colour will need to be refreshed every 6 - 8 weeks.
-
GLOBAL LIGHTENING: AKA the bleach & tone, or the Gwen Stefani treatment! For ultimate platinum blondes, lightener is applied to the roots and may be taken through the ends on first application. After that, the lighter is carefully applied to regrowth only, hair is then rinsed and toned at the basin for a crystal clean blonde. Maintenance: This is the kind of colour where you can’t skip a session! 4 - 6 weekly sessions are a must.

BALAYAGE/FOILEAGE
For glossy, sun-kissed, effortless colour
How: Colour / lightener is painted onto the hair in a freehand technique either with the use of foils or without. No chunky streaks, but a seamless, natural-looking highlight effect. Maintenance: You can go anywhere between 2 - 6 months depending on how lived-in you want your colour to look. Your stylist may book you in for a toner appointment in between full colour to refresh the desired tone and to add gloss.
*In most cases a Refining Toner is required, please keep this in mind when booking.

FOILS / including Global
For multidimensional blondes, natural vibes and ultimate lightening
How: Hair is weaved into a foil and painted with colour or lightener, the foil is then sealed and left to develop before rinsing and most likely, toning. A multi-tonal result comes from leaving a little (or more) natural hair between foil packets. Maintenance: 6 - 12 weekly appointments depending on hair growth and desired look. Your stylist may also advise you to alternate fullhead and half head applications.

MICROLIGHTS
For an ultra light blonde (these are our back to back fine blended blondes)
How: For when you want the ultimate in Blonde Hair but don't want the colour to be directly applied to the scalp. Hair is weaved into a foil and painted with colour or lightener, the foil is then sealed and left to develop before rinsing and most likely, toning. Foils are packed in, almost back to back to create the most of the lightening effect. Maintenance: 5 - 10 weekly appointments depending on hair growth and desired look. Your stylist may also advise you to alternate fullhead and half head applications.
*Long or thick hair take extra time but it can sometimes use double the amount of product. Prices will be confirmed before appointment begins.
*In most cases a Refining Toner is required, please keep this in mind when booking.

REFINING TONER
Where the magic happens (& a good blonde becomes a beautiful one)
Typically applied after hair has been lightened by foils or balayage. The colour recipe is personalized to your hair, so you can get just the pearly, creamy blonde you want. Helps banish unwanted yellow or orange tones more efficiently than an unprofessional purple shampoo. Also great for keeping blondes radiating in an express appointment between longer lightening sessions.
| Gloss Toner 25g | $65 |
| Zone Tone 10g (partial toner) | $38 |
| Dry Toner 30g (applied to clean dry hair) | $80 |
CORRECTIVE COLOUR
For peek-a-boo panels (à la Dua Lipa), bright colours (like Billie Eilish’s green roots) or dramatic colour changes (think Margot Robbie’s platinum blonde to deep brunette)
How: A custom and personalized ALBERTS colour plan, which always starts with a pre-appointment complimentary consultation and prequote. It may involve:
- PASTELS & BRIGHTS: Unless you have a full head of blonde hair already we’ll take you on a lightening journey. This is because pastel and bright colours only show up on lightened or naturally fair hair. Pastels & brights can also fade quickly, so for optimum colour we’ll book you in for regular toners - as frequently as every 2 - 3 weeks.
- PEEK-A-BOO PANELS: We’ll lighten the pieces of hair you want to pop, before toning to the desired share. A maintenance schedule will be advised by your stylist.
- COPPERS & REDS: From strawberry blondes to cherry reds, warm colours can enhance most natural heads of hair. If you’ve got dark dyed hair, there may be an element of colour removal involved - likewise, if you are wanting a fair copper colour, your hair may need to be lightened first. Reds can fade fast so book in every 4 - 12 weeks.

DO WE CHARGE EXTRA FOR THICK OR VERY LONG HAIR?
