FAQs
What is colour correction?
«Colour correction addresses unwanted results from previous hair colour treatments. It can include removing brassiness, restoring blonde hair that's gone green from chlorine, correcting an uneven balayage or fixing a box-dye colour mishap.
This is a complex, specialist service that requires the expertise of our senior colourists. Colour correction often takes multiple appointments and we'll always start with a consultation to assess your hair and create a personalised plan.
Whatever the current state of your hair, never feel embarrassed - we've seen it all before and we're here to help restore your locks.
Do I need an allergy patch test?
«Yes. Your safety is always our top priority, and although we use gentle hair colours from Davines, if you’re new to William Guy, or haven’t had your hair coloured with us in the last 3 months, you’ll need a quick allergy alert test at least 48 hours before your colour appointment.
It’s a simple patch test behind the ear. Just pop in to the salon or give us a call to arrange a time if that's easier for you.
If I've had my hair coloured at William Guy before, do I still need a patch test?
«If you haven’t had your hair coloured with us in the last 3 months, you will still need a patch test. This needs to take place at least 48 hours before your colour appointment.
Allergies can develop at any time, and the patch test ensures your continued safety.
How do I maintain my hair colour at home?
«We recommend using Davines colour-safe shampoo and conditioner specifically formulated for coloured hair. This is available in all our salons.
Avoid washing your hair for 48 hours after colouring, use heat protection when styling, and consider a weekly treatment mask to maintain colour vibrancy and hair health.
Our stylists can recommend the perfect Davines products for your colour.
Will my hair colour fade?
«Some fading is natural, particularly with fashion shades and reds. Using colour-safe products, washing less frequently with cooler water, and protecting your hair from sun and chlorine will all help maintain your colour for longer.
Regular toning appointments can also refresh your colour between full services.
What hair colour services do you offer?
«We offer a comprehensive range of colour services including highlights, lowlights, balayage, ombré, full head colour, root touch-ups, toning, creative colour and colour correction. We have a particular specialism in hair blonding.
All our colour services use premium Davines products for beautiful, long-lasting results.
What's the difference between highlights and balayage?
«Traditional highlights use foils to create uniform colour from root to tip, whilst balayage is hand-painted for a more natural, graduated effect.
Highlights offer more dramatic contrast, while balayage provides a softer, sun-kissed, lived-in look.
What is a root touch-up?
«A root touch-up involves applying colour to the regrowth at your roots to match your existing colour. This service is ideal for maintaining your colour between full applications and keeping your look fresh.
What is toning?
«Toning is a service that refines your hair colour by neutralizing unwanted tones (such as brassiness in blonde hair) or adding depth and shine. It's often used after highlighting or lightening services to perfect the final shade.
Can you do a complete colour change?
«Yes, we can help you achieve a complete colour transformation. However, it's important to note that dramatic colour changes (particularly going from dark to light or vice versa) require careful planning and may take several sessions to achieve your desired result.
We always recommend booking a consultation first so we can assess your hair, discuss your goals, and create a realistic timeline and treatment plan for your colour journey. We will protect your hair's condition at every step of the way.
