Hair colour removal in Canvey Island
A careful starting point for a colour change.
The starting point
Pause before putting another colour over it
When a colour is not what you wanted, choosing another shade straight away can make the next decision harder. Colour removal is part of Sixteen A’s listed services. Begin with a discussion of what is already in your hair and the result you hope to work towards.
Before you visit
An enquiry comes before a colour plan
Do not book another tint on the assumption it will resolve unwanted colour. Contact Tina first, disclose any reactions or scalp concerns, and follow the salon’s instructions about testing and preparation. Confirm the proposed services and cost before proceeding.
Ask Tina about your appointmentLooking after your hair afterwards
Request specific care advice for the process agreed and discuss when any follow-on colour could be considered. Avoid treating a removal appointment as a guarantee that another colour service can happen immediately.

A few useful answers
Colour removal: your questions
Will colour removal restore my exact natural colour?
That outcome cannot be guaranteed. Previous colouring and lightening affect the starting point and the options available; discuss your history and expectations with Tina.
Can I change dark hair to a much lighter shade in one visit?
A single-visit result should not be assumed. Condition, existing colour and the target shade all matter when a plan is assessed.
Can I send a photograph before booking?
You can start the conversation by WhatsApp with a current photograph and your colour history. A photograph helps explain your concern but does not replace any assessment Tina needs.
