What is a semi-permanent root melt?

A semi-permanent root melt deposits colour without lifting, making it ideal for blending greys, refreshing tone, or extending time between full colour appointments. Prices start from £40.

How often should I get my roots done?

How much does balayage cost in Bristol?

What is the difference between balayage and highlights?

Highlights use foils to create a more uniform, all-over lightening effect. Balayage is a hand-painted technique that creates a softer, sun-kissed, more graduated result. Balayage typically looks more natural and grows out more gracefully.

How long does balayage take?

A balayage appointment typically takes between 2.5 and 4 hours, depending on hair length, thickness, and the lightening process required. We recommend allowing extra time for a toner and blowdry finish.

How often do I need to get balayage redone?

Most clients refresh their balayage every 3-6 months, often booking a toner appointment in between to keep the tone vibrant. Balayage is designed to grow out beautifully.

Tape Hair Extensions: The Complete Guide

Tape-in hair extensions are one of the most popular and versatile extension methods available today. At Fergal Doyle Hair in Bristol, we fit professional tape extensions at both our Clifton and Stoke Bishop studios. Here is everything you need to know before booking your appointment.

How Tape Extensions Work

Tape extensions consist of pre-taped wefts of hair that are applied using a sandwich method. Each weft of extension hair is placed above and below a thin slice of your natural hair and pressed together so the adhesive bonds them flat against the head. The result is seamless, natural-looking extensions that sit close to the scalp and move freely.

How Long Do Tape Extensions Last?

Tape extensions typically need to be moved up every 6-8 weeks as your natural hair grows. The extension hair itself can be reused multiple times with proper care, making them a cost-effective choice over time. High-quality tape extensions can last 6-12 months of wear before the hair needs replacing.

Tape Extension Aftercare

To keep your tape extensions looking and feeling their best, avoid applying conditioner, oils or masks directly to the bonds, use sulphate-free shampoo, brush gently from the mid-lengths down before washing, and sleep with hair in a loose plait. Avoid excessive heat near the bond area.
