Restoring Damaged or Over-Processed Hair
Hair colour problems can happen for many reasons. Box dyes, excessive bleaching, sun exposure, and heat styling can all cause hair to become dry, brittle or uneven in tone. Our colourists will use targeted repair treatments and professional colour systems to restore moisture, improve strength and prepare your hair for safe recolouring.
We will never recommend a service if it could compromise the integrity of your hair. Our priority is always to rebuild condition before adding new colour.
Fixing Yellow, Brassy or Uneven Tones
Yellow, brassy highlights and unwanted bands of overlapping colour are common, but they can be corrected. Our colour technicians can rebalance your tone, break up harsh lines, and create a more natural, blended finish.
If your colour is too dark, we can lift it gently with highlights. If it is too light or too cool, we can add depth with warmer lowlights. Your stylist will talk you through the best approach for your hair during your consultation.
Complete Hair Colour Changes
Achieving a full colour change is a skilled process that goes far beyond applying a single shade. Your hair may have layers of previous colour, sun lightening, or uneven tones from root to tip. Each section may require a different formulation or technique to achieve an even, beautiful result.
One of the most requested transformations is moving from dark hair to blonde. This often takes several stages for the sake of your hair’s health, but the results are worth it. A consultation allows us to assess your hair and explain the techniques, timings and upkeep required.
Box Dye vs Professional Hair Colour
Box dye can lead to flat, uneven results because it uses one universal formula that does not adapt to your natural undertones or hair history. It can also cause unpredictable colour when applied over previous dye.
Professional colour, on the other hand, is customised. At Anthony James Hair Salon, your colourist considers your natural base, skin tone, eye colour, and previous colour history. Formulas are mixed individually, ensuring tone, brightness and root blending all look seamless and natural.
If you have previously coloured hair, there is also an art to blending regrowth without creating harsh bands. This is where professional training makes all the difference.

What is hair colour correction?
«Hair colour correction is a professional service that fixes unwanted tones such as brassiness, patchiness, over-darkening or uneven results from box dyes, bleaching mistakes or faded colour. Our expert Joico colourists assess your hair’s condition and tone, then create a tailored plan to restore balance and achieve a flattering, healthy-looking colour.
How long does a colour correction take?
«The time needed depends on the severity of the issue, your starting colour and your desired result. Appointments can range from two hours to a full day, and some transformations require multiple visits to protect your hair.
During your consultation, we’ll give you a clear and realistic timescale.
Can you remove box dye from my hair?
«Yes. Box dye is more difficult to remove because it contains strong pigments and sometimes metallic salts that build up on the hair. We use professional Joico colour removers and gentle lightening techniques to lift unwanted colour as safely as possible.
My blonde has turned brassy – can you fix it?
«Absolutely! Brassy tones are common when blonde hair oxidises or hasn’t been toned correctly. We can neutralise brassiness with Joico toners, purple shampoos, and tailored treatments to bring your blonde back to a cool, clean, or creamy tone.
How soon can I fix a hair colour disaster?
«If your hair colour has gone wrong, the best thing to do is book a consultation ASAP. In some cases, we can correct it immediately, but if your hair needs rest and repair, we may recommend Joico K-PAK treatments before recolouring to prevent further damage.
Can I go from dark to blonde without damaging my hair?
«Lightening dark hair takes time, especially if there is box dye build-up or previous colour layers. We use advanced lightening techniques and bond-building treatments to lift your colour safely. This may take multiple sessions to protect your hair and achieve the best shade of blonde.
