DIY Hair Colour Problems
We know the temptation of reaching for a box dye or trying a DIY balayage at home, however, achieving the exact shade shown on the box can be tricky. Hair colour corrections are best left to the professionals at Cutting Club. Blondes often find their hair turning brassy or even taking on an unexpected green tinge, while brunettes may notice unwanted orange tones when lightening. DIY balayage can sometimes leave harsh lines or streaks instead of a seamless blend, and years of applying box dye can result in overly dark hair or stubborn colour build-up that’s difficult to shift. Another common issue is colour banding which are uneven bands of different tones caused by overlapping dye applications. And of course, patchiness can happen all too easily when colour doesn’t apply evenly from root to tip. We’ve seen all these problems before and know exactly how to fix them. Our expert colourists will carefully assess your hair section by section, taking into account its health, history, and structure, before creating a tailored plan to restore balance and beauty. Whether it takes a gentle re-tone, a multi-step colour correction, or a longer journey to gradually rebuild your shade, we’ll guide you through the process and help you love your hair again.
Box Dye VS Pro Colour
We completely understand why box dyes are tempting – they’re easy to pick up at the supermarket, the price seems appealing, and the shade on the front of the box looks perfect. But the reality is often very different. Box dyes are designed as a “one size fits all” solution, which means they don’t take into account your natural hair colour, underlying tones, previous colour history, or the condition of your hair. The result can be a flat, one-dimensional shade that lacks the depth, shine, and tailored finish you’d get in a salon. Professional colour, on the other hand, is about so much more than simply changing your shade. Our highly trained colourists have spent years mastering the craft, combining technical skill with an artistic eye to create colours that suit you as an individual. We consider your complexion, eye colour, natural tones, lifestyle, and even your personal style to craft something bespoke. The result? Multi-dimensional, vibrant colour that looks healthy, feels glossy, and grows out beautifully. Whether you’re dreaming of a natural sun-kissed look, a bold new statement shade, or simply a refresh that leaves your hair looking healthier and shinier, professional colour gives you the confidence of knowing your hair is in safe hands.
No More Brassy Tones
Unwanted green, yellow, or brassy undertones are a common result of DIY blonde hair attempts – whether it’s at-home bleach, box dye, or a DIY balayage that didn’t quite blend as expected.
