I live far away and can’t come for a consultation beforehand. Can I still get my hair coloured?

We cannot book an appointment in advance without understanding your hair’s history, density, and other important factors. This ensures we don't block a time slot without knowing the doability & time required for your service. However, we can add you to our last-minute waitlist and notify you if a spot becomes available during the time of your stay in Vienna!

How long do Fashion Colours last?

In general, darker tones can last up to 42 washes and lighter tones up to 25 washes. There are several factors that contribute to colour fading at an unusually fast rate:
these include exposure to excessive mineral deposits in the hair or water, excessive swimming in chlorine or sea water, washing the hair with hot water or non-professional shampoo, excessive exposure to the sun, Taking certain medications, environmental influences, hereditary factors, etc. For maximum durability, we recommend using a sulfate-free shampoo.
Massage the shampoo in only at the roots and then carefully let it run over the hair, but do not shampoo the entire hair.
Ideally, wash your hair only with cold water and a maximum of 3 times a week.
To keep the intervals between washing your hair as long as possible, we recommend using dry shampoo.
