Hair Colour Tips for Dubai
- Protect colour from Dubai’s sun — UV exposure fades hair colour rapidly in Dubai. Use UV-protective hair products and consider a colour-depositing conditioner to maintain vibrancy between salon visits.
- Budget for maintenance — Hair colour in Dubai requires regular upkeep. Factor in the cost of toners, glosses, and root touch-ups when choosing your colour service.
- Allow extra time for consultations — Significant colour changes require a thorough consultation. Book this separately from your colour appointment to ensure your stylist has adequate time to assess your hair.
