Hair Colour in Lisbon

Grey hair coverage in Lisbon

Grey coverage is part of hair colouring, not a separate menu. In the consultation Tiago looks at how much grey there is, where it sits, and whether you want it covered or only blended. Full colour changes the whole head. A softer approach can blend the grey so it is less stark without committing to a solid root every month. Ammonia-free options are used when the hair can take them. If the hair is damaged, colour waits until a treatment has made it fit to dye.

Root colour is usually refreshed every 4 to 6 weeks if the coverage is solid. Full colour often holds in the lengths for about 6 to 8 weeks, while lighter pieces can go longer. Bring a reference if you have one, and come with clean hair unless you are told otherwise. Avoid other chemical services in the two weeks before the appointment. The work is one-to-one at Rua do Patrocínio, so the grey plan is made for your hair, not from a standard formula.

How grey coverage is done

1. Consultation on the percentage of grey, the base and the result you want.
2. A choice between full coverage and a blend that leaves some grey visible.
3. Application, processing and a tone that suits the skin.
4. Home advice for the root rhythm, usually 4 to 6 weeks for solid coverage.

Who it suits

It suits anyone whose grey is coming through and who wants either a full cover or a softer blend. It also suits people who have been boxing their own colour and want the regrowth line cleaned up. Very compromised hair is treated before it is coloured.

Aftercare

Use colour-safe washing and heat protection. Book the root appointment before the contrast becomes a hard line if you are covering fully. If you are blending, the gap between visits can be longer. Tell the salon about any scalp sensitivity before the colour is mixed.

Price

Full colour starts at €40 on short hair. Highlights on a full head start at €60, €70 and €80 for short, medium and long hair. Grey coverage is quoted from those colour services after the consultation.
