Not sure which line is right for you?
Your stylist will help choose the best formula based on your goals, hair type, and desired maintenance — so you leave with color that’s uniquely you and hair that feels as good as it looks.
We totally understand your concerns — sensitive scalps are more common than you’d think, and your comfort is our priority. The good news is, the color lines we use — Redken, BlondMe, and Wella — all have options that can work beautifully for sensitive clients like you!
Here’s how we take extra care:
Redken offers ammonia-free and low-alkaline options like Shades EQ Gloss, which is super gentle, non-irritating, and great for sensitive skin. It adds tone, shine, and subtle color without harsh chemicals.
BlondMe by Schwarzkopf includes bond-protecting technology, which helps minimize stress and irritation on both the scalp and hair during the lightening process. We can pair it with soothing scalp protectants for extra comfort.
Wella has softer formulations like Color Touch (demi-permanent) and Illumina, which are designed to be gentle on the scalp while still delivering beautiful, vibrant results.
Smoothing & Frizz Control – What’s the Difference?
