The initial reaction is the strongest but not always the most accurate. It might be the case that the colour now being real makes it different from how you imagined it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often people will gasp when they see their new look but then love it after a good look at it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if this is not the case and you do not like the colour, do speak up about it. Your stylist wants you to love your new look, and if there are particular aspects you are not fond of, they can either help fix it there and then, or explain how it might change when you get home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whilst many salons try to have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salontoday.com\/375294\/six-things-you-need-to-know-about-salon-lighting\">lighting to mitigate this<\/a>, sometimes the lights can be quite harsh by necessity, and hair dye is at its most vivid just after it has been applied. Both of these aspects in combination can give a very different impression of your new colour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you go back home and still do not like it after a few days, book a colour correction appointment. There is always something a stylist can do to give you the look you want, and often it only requires a little tweak to fix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you choose a
