Coloring your hair can change your look and give you a confidence boost. When you have dark roots but want an overall light and bright hair color a Single Process Root Lightening Treatment can give you exactly the boost you need! Your stylist will apply lightener over the dark roots, ideally an eighth-inch grown, and process with time, heat, or both.

The longer the roots, the more challenging it is to get seamless. Or how the lightener swells and expands as it processes. Your stylist will need to anticipate and allow room for swelling and also consider the warmth of your scalp. Your scalp generates heat and processes the lightener just like sitting under a dryer.

A root touch-up is primarily used for touching up greys or putting a color on the roots. A Single Process Root Lightning retouch is lightening the roots and a more time-intensive and complicated process.

On average, expect to see your stylist every four to six weeks. Unfortunately, your roots don’t wait for you. The longer you wait to get into the salon, the more your roots grow, and the more difficult seamless bleach retouches become.

The cost for a touch-up starts at $75 in our Tier 1 option and goes up. All prices can be found here.
