Why Your Dream Hair Might Take More Than One Appointment
Thinking of going blonde? Or planning a full hair transformation? You might be surprised to hear it’s not always something we can (or should) do in one visit.
At Hue Hair Co, we’re all about creating beautiful, healthy hair. That means being honest with you about what’s realistic — and what’s not — in a single session. So let’s break down why hair transformations take time, and what that actually means for your appointment.
“Why can’t I go blonde in one session?”
It’s a question we get all the time. The short answer? Because we want to protect your hair.
If you’ve coloured your hair before (even just a gloss or dark semi-permanent), your hair will lift differently. Going straight to blonde too quickly can leave it patchy, brittle or worse — broken. That’s not the look we’re going for.
Every head of hair is different, so we always start with a proper consultation. We look at your hair history, condition, natural colour, and what’s achievable in the time we’ve got. Sometimes we can get you most of the way there in one go. Often, it’s better (and safer) to take it in stages.
What happens during a transformation?
Here’s what a big change might involve:
Stage 1: Lightening your hair safely
Stage 2: Toning to cancel out unwanted tones
Stage 3: Treating and rebuilding hair strength
Stage 4: Planning your next appointment for final results
That’s why we’ve designed our transformation packages — they give you time with your stylist to make meaningful progress, without rushing. They’re more cost-effective too, especially for clients who know they’ll need multiple appointments.
We won’t compromise your hair health
We use Original & Mineral colour and treatments, which are gentle, clean and effective. But even with the best products, we’ll still say “not today” if it’s going to damage your hair long-term.
Healthy hair holds colour better, looks shinier, and lasts longer between appointments. So even if it takes a few visits, you’ll thank yourself for doing it the right way.
And no — we won’t leave your hair brassy or “raw” in between. We always tone, treat and style your hair so you still walk out feeling amazing.
