Different NYC Hair Color Techniques

NYC Lowlights: To add depth and dimension, the top hairstylists in Soho NYC expertly apply low lights in various brown shades throughout your hair. This technique makes your hair look multi-dimensional while going darker, perfect for the cozy fall season. This look gives off a very lived in feeling to your hair, this is the most low commitment brunette version for you hair. Think of this as the “Fall Blonde Look”, as you can add more highlights if it’s too dark or more lowlights if it’s still too light.

NYC Root Melt: Is a transition color, where the stylist applies a darker semi-permanent color onto the roots and stretches the color down into your blonde. This allows you to slowly grow your natural darker root color as you transition out your blonde haircolor over time.

NYC Brunette Allover One Color: This technique is suggested for those looking for an even one-color tone from roots to end. This looks provide a seamless one-shade color throughout your hair if you’re not looking for any dimension in your hair. This look requires pre-pigmentation.

Pre-Pigmentation: When going from light to dark; pre-pigmentation is necessary to create an even, rich and healthy brunette color that actually holds in your pre-lightened hair. When your hair has been lightened you’ve removed the natural melanin inside your hair, creating an empty hair strand. Your stylist first needs to prime the hair to hold the brunette color they are putting on top. To do this they need to add in pigment that was once removed with lightener to give your target brunette shade something to lock onto.

Maintenance

Haircuts or Hair Color Touch Ups: If you’re a natural Brunette like the majority of clients, maintenance is very low when you transition back to your darker haircolor. The heavy lifting of work is done in the initial appointment from going light to dark. Most of the above listed techniques allow your hair to naturally transition the blonde out with your normal routine haircuts that you can get with one of the expert hairstylists at The Drawing Room New York. If you feel the color start to look a little brassy or dull you can go into the salon for a gloss to keep the color vibrant and fresh. NYC Hair Glosses are also conditioning for the hair, and add shine and brighten your color all in one appointment

Color Safe Products: Using color safe shampoos and color safe conditioners ensure your color will look salon fresh. You can find some amazing products on The Drawing Room New York website that pair wonderfully with their color line.

Hair Treatments: One of the best hair treatments in Soho NYC is the Milbon deep conditioning treatment for moisture or smoothing that The Drawing Room offers. You can call their front desk team to inquire more about how to schedule this 30-minute treatment that will have your hair feeling silky smooth and hydrated.

Transition Back to Blonde

If you ever decide to transition back to blonde, you can discuss this with your NYC hairstylist. The approach would likely involve a gradual process to minimize damage and maintain your hair health. The best approach is always using hair semi permanent glosses that slowly wash out over time compared to using a demi permanent hair color that is very difficult to lift out when you’re transitioning back to blonde (which can add more stress on the hair). Whether you’re embracing the warmth of autumn with a brunette look or planning for a future return to blonde, The Drawing Room’s Top New York hair colorists are there to make your hair dreams come true.
