Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Full Head Color.

A Full Head Color includes consultation, color formulation, application across all hair, processing, rinse, and a finishing treatment. We perform double process lifts or permanent deposits as needed for full coverage, plus styling and aftercare recommendations tailored to locs.

Appointments usually range from two to five hours depending on hair length, desired lightening, and whether a double-process lift is required. Loc maintenance, consultations, and additional treatments may extend time; we will give an estimated duration during booking.

Yes — Full Head Color can be safe for locs and textured hair when performed by experienced stylists. We do strand tests, use protective barriers, and choose gentle formulas. Expect recommendations for conditioning and maintenance to reduce dryness and preserve loc integrity.

Permanent deposit generally covers gray hair effectively, but results depend on hair porosity, previous color, and desired shade. Some cases require a double-process lift or repeated applications. We’ll assess during consultation and recommend the best plan for reliable coverage.

Arrive with clean, product-free locs and avoid heavy oils or recent chemical services. Bring reference photos and disclose color history. If possible, deep-condition a few days before. We’ll review hair health at consultation to determine the safest approach.

Maintain color with sulfate-free shampoos, cool-water rinses, weekly moisturizing treatments, and UV protection. Avoid excessive heat and clarify only when necessary. Schedule regular root touch-ups and use salon-recommended products to preserve vibrancy and loc strength between appointments.
