My Home Balayage Didn't Turn Out Right – Can It Be Fixed?
If your DIY balayage hasn't turned out as expected, don't worry – professional hair colour correction can often restore your hair to a beautiful, natural-looking finish. Common problems with at-home balayage include harsh lines, uneven colour, patchy application, unwanted yellow or orange tones and over-processed hair. The good news is that these issues can usually be corrected with the right expertise.
Our balayage specialists will carefully assess your hair, colour history and its current condition before recommending the safest and most effective corrective treatment. We may use a combination of toners, highlights, lowlights or bespoke colour correction techniques to blend uneven tones and recreate the soft, seamless balayage you're looking for.
Balayage is a highly skilled hand-painted colouring technique that requires experience, precision and an understanding of colour theory to achieve natural, lived-in results. If your home balayage hasn't gone to plan, book a consultation with our Durham colour specialists and we'll help get your hair back on track while protecting its health and condition.

A lovely stylist and person

The best of the best

Had a great cut and blow dry. Georgia listened carefully to what I wanted and produced exactly that. I was so pleased. Such a friendly atmosphere in the Salon.

Very pleased with my colour nikki did a fabulous job of rescuing my hair thank you very much

Wow. A joy from start to finish and worth travelling from Edinburgh! Fabulous American Wave perm. I love it and my hair feels fabulous as well as looks amazing. Michael and the team were exceptional and I would highly recommend this salon. The attention to detail and full explanation of the whole pr...ocess was very reassuring. I look forward to future visits read more

Hi trying to send a review but failed three times so far -Think my Facebook settings are up the creek this is a test to see if I can work out how to correct it

Had a brilliant cut and finish with Kayleigh recently. She interpreted my instructions perfectly. As a first visit I was extremely impressed and have already made recommendations to my friends.My next appointment is already booked.Thank you so much.Pam Hasler

Had my first visit yesterday for a perm that i had been wanting for ages… But was always talked out of by family and friends. Turns out i should have had it ages ago! After researching where is the best place to go, travelled an hour to get to the salon, but it was worth it for Michael’s knowledge a...nd expertise. As the only place in the UK who are able to offer the American Wave Perm System, i knew the standard must be high. Michael can assess your hair and recommend what would be the best way to apply a perm to it, without damaging your hair. He can also offer advice on the best way to care for your perm, and keep it at its best. My hair now has so much more volume, and feels light as a feather! read more

Thank you so much for restoring my faith in hairdressers. I came in for a consultation with Michael and it's fair to say he blew my socks off. the wealth of information he gave me was unbelievable. I came in wanting a perm as I have naturally curly hair but he informed me that my hair was in a bad w...ay and before he did anything he would treat it. I left armed with shampoo, conditioner 7 serum. My big day was 11th November. I had the works done with Michael and when he finished I didn't recognise myself. I felt like me for the first time in a long time. I can not recommend this salon enough. Michael is so knowledgeable and all the staff are so friendly and made me feel friendly. Thank you so much. I am your number 1 fan. read more

Absolutely great experience from start to finish. Everyone is so friendly! Nikki and the team have done a fantastic job. Will definitely be coming back in the future 🙂

My second visit today and my hair has never looked better. Trust Michael completely and he obviously knows his stuff; explains everything in detail which is something I find really interesting.

What a fabulous way to spend a Sunday. A relaxing time with a coffee and and laughter and chat with Alan and the girls. Not to mention a fabulous cut and colour. What more could a girl want!

I was seen promptly and my appointment was relaxed and friendly, hair styling discussed, coffee whilst styled, happy with result... thank you

I went to the Salon for the first time having tried to bleach my hair myself and gotten it horribly wrong. Given they had the Guy Tang colours in I wanted to go from the horrible blonde mess to a silvery purple with dark roots. They were very honest about the risks and what could be achieved which r...eassured me that my hair was in good hands. In the end there had been no need to worry though as they achieved the colour I wanted perfectly and it feels in great condition. Will definitely be returning and could not recommend enough! read more

Thank you for my hair yesterday Anisha it was beautiful and everyone loved it x

Today was the first time i visited the salon and the only word to sum up the experience is fantastic. I went to the salon after been let down by a hairdresser six weeks prior to my wedding. However after the experience today i think everything happens for a reason. On arrival all of the staff were f...riendly. I had my colour done by michael who listened to what i wanted and then added his advice on what he could do to make it even better. when my hair was washed and i saw the job he had done i was over the moon it was perfect. I then had a hair trial from alan for my wedding hair, he again discussed to great length about what i wanted and then gave me advice about what he thought i should do. It again was perfect and i rushed home to show my mam and she also loved it. I am now sure my self, bridesmaids and mam are in fantastic hands for my big day and also future appointments. thank you so much all the staff at the salon and especially michael and allan read more
