What's included and limits
Fashion Color with Blowout applies bold, non-natural shades—rainbow, silver, pastels—onto hair that has been pre-lightened to the level required for the chosen tone. The service includes a professional blowout so you leave styled. This service is not intended for major corrective work; if extensive lightening or correction is needed, we'll recommend a staged plan.
We use semi-permanent Danger Jones color lines for their vibrant pigments and cleaner formulation. Stylists must protect your hair, so they may limit processing, suggest multiple sessions, or adapt an inspiration photo to match what is safely achievable given your hair's history and current condition.
How we achieve vibrant color
Achieving vivid fashion shades starts with precise pre-lightening to lift natural pigment to the target level. After lift, color is applied with deliberate placement to preserve dimension and reduce bleeding between hues. Final tone depends on porosity, previous color, and how evenly your hair lifts—factors the stylist assesses during consultation.
Danger Jones semi-permanent color provides immediate vibrancy and tends to fade on-tone in a flattering way; our team encourages clients to 'embrace the fade.' Clients frequently report striking color and pleasing fade patterns. We will show you maintenance steps to extend that vibrancy between salon visits.
Booking and what to expect
Plan for at least a four-hour appointment for a full-head fashion color with pre-lightening and a blowout; complex or multi-hue looks can require additional time or multiple visits. Our busiest months are June, July and October—festival and seasonal styling peaks—so book early if you want weekend or evening availability near King Street Metro.
Bring inspiration photos and be ready to discuss your lifestyle—how often you wash, hot-tool use, and how long between salon visits. We’ll review hair health, recommend at-home care, and confirm the included professional blowout so you leave confident and ready for Old Town’s shops, waterfront events, and commuter schedules.
