[H1] DO WE NEED TO BLEACH?

Quite often, we find it necessary to apply a bleaching process before proceeding with our vivid colour techniques. This step is crucial because it renders the hair slightly porous, creating an ideal canvas for absorbing vibrant colours. Some specific shades demand a lighter starting point to achieve their full vibrancy, and whenever possible, we explore alternatives to using bleach. However, please rest assured that the health and condition of your hair remain our utmost priority. If we have any concerns that this process could potentially compromise the integrity of your hair in any way, we will refrain from providing this service.
