At Michael Todd Hairdressing, this service begins with your safety and satisfaction in mind. Before any colour work, we’ll invite you in for a patch test. This quick step ensures your skin won’t react to the colour, and must be carried out at least 48 hours before your appointment. On the day of your visit, your stylist will begin with a one-to-one consultation. This is your opportunity to discuss the look you’re hoping to achieve, whether that’s soft natural blending or a brighter, more defined finish. We’ll also talk about your lifestyle, how often you’re happy to visit the salon, and what level of upkeep you’d prefer. We’ll then select the right shade or combination of shades to suit your skin tone, natural base colour and style goals. Your stylist will carefully apply each foil section to create a balanced, all-over result that grows out beautifully. A full head highlight appointment can take 2 hours depending on your hair’s length and thickness. After processing, your colour will be gently rinsed and, where needed, a toner will be applied. This helps to refine or soften the tone, neutralise brassiness, and enhance the overall finish. To maintain your highlights, we usually recommend a refresh every 6 to 8 weeks, though this may vary depending on your chosen look. Between visits, your stylist will recommend professional Davines hair care to help preserve your colour, boost shine and keep your hair feeling healthy and hydrated.

First visit I paid for a full head of highlights and a cut, but they didn’t even finish with a blow dry. I left with wet hair despite paying for a full service. But colour was ok so went back. Second visit 4 months laterAgain booked for a full head of highlights and a cut. This time I was in the salon for 3.5 hours. Only my roots were highlighted didn’t know that was a thing. ?? and again my hair wasn’t dried properly because the salon was closing. Once my hair dried at home, I could see it was patchy and just yellow or white on the roots and had clear banding. I reached out to the stylist the next day to fix it. I asked for a toner to fix the color, she agreed told me come in but was told we had to go darker. I agreed only because my blonde had been over-processed and damaged. No other solutions were offered showed her photos couldn’t get that right dark with money piece just a dark toner which we discussed to cover up the mess. The stylist applied a dark colour this wasn’t discussed or agreed on beforehand followed by a toner which was . Again, my hair was left wet until I asked for a blow dry, and even then it was only roughly dried no styling, no care. The final result? I left with dull, dark brown hair I didn’t ask for and hate. To top it off, I was charged again for the color correction another service I didn’t actually want. The owner was present but didn’t step in, apologize, or offer any kind of refund for the damage or poor service. In total I paid £170 for Over-bleached, patchy highlights Two visits where I left with wet hair A dark brown colour I didn’t want blonde to brown how shocking 😒 Zero accountability or proper customer care Very disappointed with the service and outcome. I do not recommend this salon if you care about the health of your hair or being treated with professionalism. - P Paris Harper > The best - I came in with patchy pink and purple hair and left with a gorgeous brunette to blonde blend!
