A colour appointment can be a regrowth touch-up, a complete change of shade or a gloss to refresh what is already there, and each asks for different skill. What your hair has been through matters as much as the shade you want, because colour already on it decides what is possible in one sitting.
How much does hair colour cost in Australia? Half of what Australian businesses publish sits between $45 and $130.
Ordered by how well each one fits a typical hair colourist request here — not by advertising spend, and not purely by rating.
