FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q:
Should I book my next treatment in advance?
We recommend booking in advance to ensure your desired time and stylist is available.
Q:
How long will my colour last?
Hair colour longevity depends on the service, your hair type, and how you care for it at home. On average, colour can last anywhere from 6–12 weeks. Techniques such as balayage tend to grow out more softly and last longer, while all-over colour may need refreshing sooner. During your appointment, Hava will talk you through what to expect and how to maximise longevity.
Q:
How often should I come back for maintenance?
Most clients return every 6–10 weeks, depending on the service and desired look. Balayage and lived-in colour placements often require less frequent maintenance, while root coverage or precision cuts may need more regular visits. Your maintenance plan will always be tailored to your hair, lifestyle, and preferences.
Q:
Will colouring damage my hair?
When done correctly and thoughtfully, colouring does not need to compromise hair health. Hava takes a careful, considered approach to colouring, prioritising the integrity of your hair at every step. High-quality products, customised formulations, and appropriate aftercare ensure your hair remains healthy, strong, and glossy.
Q:
Do I need a consultation before a colour service?
Yes - a consultation is an essential part of the experience. It allows time to understand your hair history, goals, and expectations, and to ensure the best possible outcome. Some colour services may also require a patch test in advance. Consultations can be arranged prior to booking or as part of your appointment.
Q:
What products do you recommend for home care?
Hava will recommend products specifically suited to your hair type, colour, and routine. This often includes professional shampoos, conditioners, and treatments designed to protect colour, maintain shine, and support long-term hair health. Guidance is always personalised, no one-size-fits-all routines.

Do you work with all hair types and textures?
Yes. Hava works with a wide range of hair types and textures and tailors each service to the individual. Every appointment is one-to-one, allowing time and attention to understand how your hair behaves and how to achieve results that feel natural, wearable, and true to you.
