At Merluza in Birmingham, a Full Head Tint is pure, polished colour tailored to your skin tone, eye colour, and lifestyle. We read your natural level, respect your hair history, and formulate for balanced depth and shine. Expect disciplined sectioning, clean saturation, and precise timing so the shade looks fresh on day one and grows out neatly.

Whether you want a richer brunette, a softer blonde, or full grey coverage, we map the journey and keep the integrity of your hair front and centre. The result is consistent colour that photographs beautifully and wears comfortably every day.

What’s Included

You get a complete, salon grade tint service designed for even coverage and lasting shine, delivered with safety and comfort in mind.

  • Personalised consultation and shade selection
  • Patch test check and allergy record review
  • Professional formula mixed to your target level and tone
  • Methodical application for even saturation, roots to ends as required
  • Processing with integrity checks and timing control
  • Emulsify, cleanse, and pH balancing finish
  • Optional gloss or bond builder if the hair would benefit
  • Styling finish with product recommendations

Who It’s For

Ideal if you want one all over shade, quick grey coverage, or a richer, more polished tone without visible foils. Suitable for all hair types and textures. Great for first time colour when you want a confident, low pattern result that aligns with your undertone and daily styling routine.

Duration & Appointment Timing

The Full Head Tint service is 90 minutes. New colour clients need a patch test on file at least 48 hours before the appointment. If your hair has complex history or extended length and density, we may recommend a brief strand test or allocate extra time during booking so application stays precise and unhurried.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Use colour safe shampoo and conditioner, plus heat protection when styling. Wash with cool to lukewarm water, limit high heat, and shield your hair from UV when outdoors. Book your root retouch every 4 to 8 weeks depending on growth, with an optional gloss refresh between visits to keep tone refined and shine high.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a patch test for a Full Head Tint?
Yes. For everyone new to colour with Merluza or switching brand, a patch test is required at least 48 hours before your appointment. This keeps you safe and ensures we can proceed.
Will a Full Head Tint cover grey hair?
Yes. We select the right shade family and developer to achieve full or blended coverage based on your preference, hair history, and desired softness of result.
How long will my colour last?
Most clients find the colour stays vibrant for 4 to 8 weeks. Longevity depends on washing frequency, heat styling, sun exposure, and your home care routine.
Is this suitable for all hair types and textures?
Absolutely. We adjust application, sectioning, and processing to suit fine, medium, or coarse hair and any texture pattern so coverage stays even and respectful.
What should I do before my appointment?
Please complete your patch test in advance and arrive with dry hair free of heavy oils. Bring a brief colour history so we can tailor formula and timing accurately.
