Effortless Beauty that Lasts

The days of high-maintenance, stark root lines are behind us. Today’s most sought-after hair colour trend is all about embracing a more natural, effortless look that grows out beautifully. Let’s dive into lived-in hair colour techniques that our master colourists at Major Hairdressing have perfected.

What Is Lived-In Hair Colour?

Lived-in colour is a sophisticated technique that creates a seamless, natural-looking transition from your root colour to your ends. Think of it as the perfect balance between your natural shade and carefully placed highlights that create dimension and movement.

Why Choose Lived-In Colour?

  • Low Maintenance: Extend the time between salon visits to 3-4 months
  • Natural Looking: Soft transitions that complement your natural colour
  • Customisable: Works with any base colour and desired outcome
  • Cost-Effective: Fewer touch-ups mean better longer lasting value for your investment

The Technique Behind the Magic

Our master colour experts at Major Hairdressing use a combination of:

  • Strategic foil placement
  • Balayage application
  • Shadow roots
  • Subtle toning

This multi-dimensional approach ensures your colour looks natural and grows out seamlessly, avoiding harsh lines or obvious regrowth.

Maintaining Your Lived-In Colour

To keep your colour looking fresh:
