Go all-in on blonde with an even, all-over lift from root to tip. This whole head bleach application creates a clean base for platinum looks, soft blondes or vivid colours, then perfects the shade with a tailored toner. Expect precise sectioning, controlled processing and hair-first care for a bright, polished result.

More information

What's Included

A thorough process designed for a consistent, comfortable lightening result.

  • Personal consultation to confirm your target blonde or fashion shade.
  • Allergy alert test prior to appointment where required.
  • Precision full-head scalp bleach application for an even lift.
  • Custom toner to neutralise warmth and refine your finish.
  • Bond-building and protective care during processing.
  • pH-balancing cleanse and condition for softness and shine.
  • Aftercare guidance and a clear maintenance plan.

Who It's For

Ideal if you want a uniform blonde from root to ends, a platinum finish or a clean base for vivid colours. It suits those who prefer a high-impact, modern look with minimal visible contrast.

Great for all genders, hair types and textures. If you have previous colour build-up or very dark hair, we will plan a safe, staged approach to protect hair integrity.

Duration & Appointment Timing

Allow around 120 minutes for consultation, application, processing and toning. Timing varies with hair length, density, previous colour and the level of lift required. First-time lightening or complex colour history may take longer.

A consultation and allergy alert test are required in advance. Arrive with dry hair, minimal product and avoid scratching the scalp for 24 hours before your visit.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Use sulphate-free, colour-safe shampoo and a weekly nourishing mask. A purple or blue-toning wash once or twice a week helps keep brassiness at bay. Always apply heat protection when styling.

Book root maintenance every 4 to 6 weeks to prevent banding. Refresh toner every 3 to 6 weeks to maintain your chosen shade. Strengthening treatments in-salon support softness, shine and resilience over time.

    Would 100% recommend. First time dying my hair in Oxford so was a bit apprehensive at the start, but Sylvain was incredibly professional and passionate about his craft which was very reassuring. He was a keen listener and had great stylistic ideas. Additionally, everyone at the salon was warm and welcoming. The bleaching and colouring took an entire afternoon but it did not feel like it at all — really appreciated the staff asking whether I’d like a coffee or a tea and making an effort to improve customers’ experience. Am very happy with the colour and the end result. Would be very happy to come back.

Frequently Asked Questions

How light can you take my hair in one visit?
Results depend on your starting colour, condition and any previous dyes. We lift to the safest level first, then refine with toner. Very dark or coloured hair may need more than one session for pale blonde.
Will bleaching damage my hair?
Lightening changes the hair structure, but we minimise impact with bond builders, careful timing and aftercare. Expect some dryness, which is managed with targeted treatments and a tailored home routine.
Do I need a toner after bleaching?
Yes. Bleach exposes warmth and a toner defines the final shade, from cool ash to creamy beige or icy platinum. Toner naturally fades, so quick gloss appointments keep your blonde fresh.
How often will I need maintenance?
Plan root retouching every 4 to 6 weeks for an even result. Refresh toner every 3 to 6 weeks and add strengthening treatments as needed to maintain softness and shine.
Do I need an allergy test before this service?
Yes, an allergy alert test is required before scalp bleach and toning. Book it at least 48 hours before your appointment to proceed safely.
