We are Hair for You

Although your hair may rank low on your list of worries, we would like our clients to know we are hair for you! So before you take to the box dye or the scissors for #quarantinehair, please read on! We have developed three At Home Color Kits available for purchase: a regular single process color and gloss color. Not sure which type of color kit you need? Email us at customercare@salon718 and we will look up your formula with your current [salon]718 stylist. Not a client? We may still be able to help you, please email us your selfie and we work on your custom formula. Our stylists are even doing virtual consults using Facetime or Zoom to match your color – email us a customercare@salon718.com to set up your virtual consultation.

Each kit comes with a tube of color, developer, disposable cape & gloves, mix bowl/bottle, skin barrier wipes and a sample of shampoo and conditioner. This is no box dye friends! This kit is formulated with professional quality products designed to give you the closest possible results you would see with your [salon]718 stylist.

So how do you color your home with professional stylist results? We have broken down all the steps for you, in easy to follow instructions: sectioning your hair, applying the color to the root with a tapping motion, your ideal processing time and pro-tips such as starting in the front of your hair if you are covering gray. Our team has also put together an entertaining video for you to watch.

Keep in mind our at-home kits are designed for single process clients and are capable of lifting up to two levels. So what are double process very light blondes to do? Wait! Please wait for your stylist. We know it’s hard, but keep in mind that platinum hue or beautiful blonde highlights you worked so hard to achieve in the salon are not easily or safely achieved at-home. For our blonde clients, we are recommending to focus on haircare: be kind to your hair and condition it with indulgent masks from Kerastase or Pureology. Kerastase Blond Absolu Masque Ultra Violet Purple Hair Mask is the perfect solution to refreshing your blonde color or highlights. Pureology also makes Strength Cure Best Blonde shampoo and conditioner formulated for all shades of color-treated blonde, highlighted and lightened hair created with violet toning properties for your strongest and brightest blonde hair yet.

We are all going through so much right now, be kind to yourself and your hair. Taking time for self-care is so important in times when we all feel like we have little control in our current state. So before you pick up the scissors or the box dye- reach out to us for help. Send us your selfie to customercare@salon718.com and check out our online shop for premium quality hair care. #wearehairforyou
