Color Correction in Plantation, FL

Expert solutions for color disasters and dramatic transformations

Starting at $100/hr

Consultation Required: Color correction is complex and requires an in-person assessment. Please book a consultation so I can evaluate your hair and provide an accurate quote.

Color correction is my specialty. Whether you're dealing with a box dye disaster, salon mishap, brassiness, or just want to make a dramatic color change, I have the expertise and patience to help you achieve your goals safely.

As a Tier 6 Aveda Stylist with over 15 years of experience, I've seen and successfully corrected every color situation imaginable. At Drew James Aveda Salon in Plantation, I approach each correction methodically, prioritizing the health of your hair while working toward your desired result.

Common Color Correction Needs

Box Dye Removal

Box dyes contain metallic salts that react unpredictably with professional products. I'll safely remove the buildup and restore your options.

Brassiness Removal

Orange or yellow tones when you wanted cool blonde? I'll neutralize unwanted warmth and create the tone you actually wanted.

Uneven Color

Patchy, spotty, or banded color from at-home attempts or inexperienced stylists. I'll create seamless, uniform results.

Too Dark

Went darker than intended? I can safely lift and lighten over-deposited color to restore brightness.

Too Light/Damaged

Over-processed, gummy, or breaking hair from excessive lightening. I'll help repair and restore integrity.

Dramatic Change

Going from dark to blonde or vice versa requires expertise. I'll create a safe plan for your transformation.

My Color Correction Process

Consultation: We start with a thorough assessment. I'll examine your hair's history, current condition, and discuss your goals. I'll be honest about what's achievable and how long it will take.
Customized Plan: Based on your consultation, I'll create a step-by-step plan. Some corrections can be done in one session; others require multiple appointments to protect your hair's integrity.
The Process: Color correction often involves multiple techniques - color removal, lightening, toning, and sometimes conditioning treatments. I'll explain each step as we go.
Aftercare: You'll leave with detailed instructions on how to maintain your corrected color and keep your hair healthy going forward.

Frequently Asked Questions

Color correction is billed hourly starting at $100/hour because every situation is unique. A simple toner to fix brassiness might be quick and affordable, while removing years of box dye buildup could take multiple long sessions. After your consultation, I'll give you an honest estimate of total time and cost.

Hair can only handle so much processing at once. If we try to do too much in one session, we risk damaging your hair irreparably. Spreading the correction over multiple sessions allows your hair to rest and recover between treatments, ensuring you end up with healthy hair that looks beautiful.

It depends on your current situation and how much time we have. Please be upfront about your timeline during the consultation. If a full correction isn't possible, we can often find a compromise solution that significantly improves your hair for your event, with plans to continue correction afterward.

Please don't do anything else to your hair - no more box dye, no more attempts to fix it yourself. Come with your hair in its current state so I can accurately assess. If possible, bring photos of what you're trying to achieve and be prepared to share your complete hair color history (box dyes, professional services, how long ago, etc.).
