Root Color Questions
How much does root color cost at Boncomb?
Our root color service is $150, which includes color consultation, precise color matching, expert application, processing and monitoring, color-safe rinse and conditioning, plus a blowout and style. It’s a complete service – you’ll leave looking polished and ready for your day.
How often should I get my roots done?
Most clients in Arlington schedule root color every 4-6 weeks, depending on how fast your hair grows and how much contrast there is between your natural color and your colored shade. Gray coverage typically needs more frequent maintenance than brunette-to-brunette touch-ups. We’ll recommend the ideal schedule for your specific situation – and you can lock in a standing appointment so it’s one less thing to think about.
Will you be able to match my current color exactly?
Yes – precise color matching is one of our specialties. We keep detailed records of your color formulas, and we assess your hair at each appointment to account for any fading, sun exposure, or product buildup. If you’ve had your color done elsewhere and are switching to Boncomb, bring any formula information you have, or we’ll analyze your current shade and create a custom match.
Can root color cover my gray completely?
Absolutely. We specialize in gray coverage that looks natural, not flat or helmet-like. The key is using the right formulation for your specific gray pattern – resistant grays need different treatment than softer grays. We’ll assess your gray coverage needs during your consultation and create a formula that provides full coverage while maintaining dimension and movement.
What’s the difference between root color and full color?
Root color focuses only on your new growth – typically the first 1-2 inches at your scalp. Full color covers your entire head from roots to ends. If you’re happy with your current shade and just need to address regrowth, root color is more efficient and gentler on your hair. If your ends have faded significantly or you want to change your overall color, full color is the better choice.
How do I maintain my color between appointments?
We’ll recommend color-safe shampoo and conditioner to prevent fading. Avoid hot water when washing – lukewarm is best for color longevity. If you swim regularly, wet your hair with clean water before entering the pool to minimize chlorine absorption. And protect your hair from excessive sun exposure, especially here in Texas. Following these steps can extend your color’s vibrancy between visits.
Can I add highlights to my root color appointment?
Yes – many of our Arlington clients combine root color with partial highlights for added dimension. This is especially popular for clients who want to brighten their face-framing pieces while maintaining their base color. Let us know when booking so we can allot the appropriate time. We’ll also discuss whether to do both services together or alternate them for optimal hair health.
What Our Clients Say
“I’ve been getting my roots done at Boncomb every five weeks for over a year now. Same time, same stylist, same perfect results. My gray is completely covered but my hair still looks natural and dimensional – not that flat, one-note color you see on some women. I have a standing appointment booked through next summer. It’s just handled.” – Linda K., Tierra Verde Estates
