Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Demi- Permanent.

Demi-permanent color generally lasts four to twelve weeks depending on hair porosity, washing frequency, and styling products. It fades subtly rather than growing out abruptly, making it ideal for low-maintenance refreshes between permanent color appointments.

Demi-permanent blends and softens gray, often reducing contrast rather than providing full coverage. Results vary with gray percentage and hair texture; consult your stylist to determine if multiple applications or a permanent color are better for complete gray coverage.

Demi-permanent uses low-ammonia or ammonia-free formulas and minimal lift, so it’s gentler than permanent color. It conditions as it deposits color, reducing damage risk, but excessive processing or frequent applications can still affect hair health.

We recommend waiting 48 hours before shampooing to allow pigments to settle and maximize longevity. Use a sulfate-free color-safe shampoo and cool water washes thereafter to preserve tone and shine, extending the life of your demi-permanent color.

Demi-permanent enhances and refines tone rather than dramatically lightening hair. It’s great for toning brassiness, enriching color, and adding gloss. For major tone shifts or lift, a permanent color or lightening service is required.

Pricing varies based on hair length, density, complexity of color, and any additional services like cut or gloss. During a consultation we provide an accurate estimate tailored to your goals and maintenance preferences.
