There are many temporary colors and we use the Goldwell line. It is the only semi permanent acid color. It is actually good for the hair. In that it brings the hair back to its proper ph. There is also a colored or pigmented mouse that lasts one to two shampoos Depending on the porosity of the hair. Back To Top

If we use a permanent color it may last from several weeks to several months depending on the porosity of the hair. Though through that time it will gradually fade. The other issue would be that there would be a re-growth. That is because the hair is growing and as the new hair comes out it will not have any of the artificial color be it lighter or darker. A retouch is recommended every four weeks or so. A semi permanent color only lasts about 4 to 6 weeks. If we have removed the color as with highlights it too will gradually fade and lighten through the growing cycle. Highlights need to be retouched every 8 to 12 weeks depending on the technique used and how much contrast was achieved. There is no way to achieve a temporary highlight. Back To Top

Permanent color works by opening up the cuticle and going through a lift and deposit process. It is a chemical process and if the correct product is used, the amount of damage that occurs in usually minimal. That is why it's important to go to a highly trained professional.

Thinning or male pattern baldness is a result of genetics. Science has recently discovered that an abundance of the male hormone testosterone will cause the advent of male pattern baldness. Is there any thing that can be done to prevent or at least slow it down? There are two products on the market that have been shown to help slow down or arrest the condition. One is Monoxidill the other is Propecia. Both require you to consult a physician for a prescription. Do products like Monoxidill and Propecia really work? They have been shown to work with some people, however discontinued use will result in the condition to revert to its previous state. How about hair transplants? They do work however they are expensive.  It is also a surgical procedure.  We recommended that if you were to use this method, that you find an extremely proficient doctor to perform the procedure.

As far as a negative effect, I can say this. In going through the process of either one of these chemical services, the cuticle is raised and it never settles down completely. That is why a quality conditioner should always be used. Back To Top
