Color Changes


Does making a change to your haircolor have to be dramatic? NO, definitely not. The best changes are the subtle ones, or the ones that shift or evolve. The top industry colorists will tell you not to deconstruct the color then reconstruct it but rather work with what you have. There are those that color, color, color, recolor, bleach and resurface that hair canvas constantly; eventually the color looks over worked over done over colored. A good colorist will know how to add simple elements to add interest or create a new vision off an existing one. Sometimes it is as simple as a shadow, a tone or the re-angle of a foil and presto you have a fresh perspective on your color. Only the extreme cases require cleaning or preparing the hair canvas. At Pyure our color department is trained to see the hair from various perspectives through our education and industry involvement. Shifting, accentuating and re-visioning a look is what haircolor is all about. Knowing when to add light or shadow and where to put it is the art itself, not everyone can do that. Find out how to make this happen for you by coming into any of our 3 locations and speaking with a Pyure Talent Colorist.
