Hair inspiration, expert advice and everything in between.
One of the most common questions we hear from blonde clients is, how often should I be getting my hair done?The answer depends on how blonde you like to be, how quickly your hair grows and how much natural regrowth you are comfortable with.
Not every blonde needs to be in the salon every six weeks. The key is finding a maintenance routine that suits your hair and lifestyle.
If you love a bright, fresh blonde and prefer to keep your natural regrowth to a minimum, around 6–12 weeks is a good guide for your next appointment.
Coming back within this timeframe helps maintain brightness and keeps your blonde looking seamless, without allowing too much natural regrowth to build up.
Depending on how much brightness you want to maintain, you can refresh your blonde with a partial or face-frame, half-head or full-head foil appointment.
Prefer a little more time between salon visits? Leaving around 12–20 weeks can work well, particularly if you enjoy a softer blend between your natural colour and blonde.
By this stage, you'll have more natural regrowth, so your appointment may need more coverage to bring your blonde back through.
A half-head or full-head foil appointment can help refresh your existing blonde, depending on how much brightness you'd like to restore.
If you've left five months or longer between appointments, you'll likely have more noticeable regrowth and may need a more extensive refresh.
Our Root Re-do is designed for existing blonde clients who are ready to reconnect their natural roots with their blonde lengths. With up to 80+ foils, this appointment provides a more comprehensive refresh.
Your ideal maintenance schedule comes down to your hair, your lifestyle and how you like your blonde to look.
If you love a bright, freshly coloured finish, you may prefer appointments every 6–12 weeks. If you enjoy a softer, more natural regrowth, 12–20 weeks may suit you better. And if you don't mind leaving longer between visits, a bigger refresh after five months or more may be the way to go.
The most important thing is choosing a routine that works best for your lifestyle and budget and keeping in mind, the higher maintenace blondes, require more time and a bigger budget to keep it looking its best.
