How the refresh works
Fashion Color Refresh is a color-deposit service for hair that has already been lightened. We apply color to refresh tone, depth and vibrancy without performing additional lifting or repositioning of previously lightened sections. The service explicitly excludes new-lightening or root touch-ups and is tailored to keep your existing placement and color family intact.
This refresh includes an Olaplex treatment during the service and a professional blowout finish so you leave with polished results. Because the work is deposit-only, the outcome depends on your current level of lift and the existing pigment in the hair; we preserve the lightened foundation rather than alter it.
Who benefits from it
This service is designed for returning clients who want to maintain an existing fashion color and keep the same placement and color family. If your hair is previously lightened and you want to refresh tone, correct fading, or return vibrancy without adding lift, this is the appropriate choice. It’s not intended for a color change that requires re-lightening.
People seeking new placement, significant color shifts, or root re-lightening should book a different creative color service after a consultation. Because pricing is determined during consultation, we use that meeting to confirm suitability and ensure the refresh will achieve the client’s expectations within the deposit-only scope.
Appointment flow and finish
A consultation is required to confirm that your hair is suitable for a Fashion Color Refresh and to determine pricing. At the appointment our stylist reviews your current placement and color family, applies the deposit color, adds Olaplex for bond support, rinses, and styles with a blowout so you can see the final tone and shape in finished hair.
We’re located at 205 S. Whiting Street, Suite 306 in Alexandria’s Landmark–Van Dorn area; clients from nearby neighborhoods such as Arlington, Fairfax, and Washington, DC often visit for creative color upkeep. For the consult, bring recent photos and information about your last lightening service—these details help the stylist confirm the service is the right fit.
