Here’s What You Should Know First
Blonde hair is bold, beautiful, and timeless. Whether you’re drawn to soft honey tones, icy platinum, or something in between, going blonde can be one of the most rewarding changes you make to your hair. But it’s also a chemical process that works best when done with care, expertise, and high-quality products.
At Allure Hair Studio, we specialize in safe and stunning blonde transformations. Our team uses top-of-the-line Schwarzkopf professional bleach, developer, and bond builders to help clients achieve their dream shade usually in just one session.
Here’s what to know before making the leap.
Most Clients Can Go Blonde in One Session at Our Studio
While many salons stretch out the lightening process over multiple visits, we use Schwarzkopf’s professional-grade bleach and developer, which allow us to safely lift pigment quickly while preserving the health of your hair. This means that for many of our clients, even those with darker hair, blonde is achievable in a single appointment; no drawn-out plan required and no need for a second appointment.
The key is using the right formula, personalized timing, and protective treatments throughout the process. You’ll walk out the same day with a major transformation, not just a halfway result.
Hair History Still Matters
Even though we can achieve major changes in one appointment, your previous colour treatments still play a role. If you’ve used box dye, henna, or layered darker tones in recent months, the lightening process may be affected. In some cases, colour buildup can slow down lift or cause uneven tones.
That’s why we always begin with a consultation, where we assess your hair and determine how best to approach your blonde goals. Honesty about your colour history helps us deliver the best possible result.
We Use Schwarzkopf Bleach and Developer
Not all lighteners are created equal. At Allure, we use Schwarzkopf Professional IGORA bleach and developers, which are specifically designed for intense lift with built-in protection. These formulas allow us to go lighter, faster, and more safely than many over-the-counter or salon alternatives.
What is a developer?
Developer (also known as peroxide) is the liquid that activates bleach. It comes in various strengths, and the volume we use depends on your hair’s condition and your desired outcome. With the right combination of bleach and developer, we can achieve up to nine levels of lift in one controlled session.
Olaplex: Your Hair’s Best Defense During Lightening
Bleaching opens the hair cuticle to remove pigment, which can make hair more fragile. To combat that, we use Olaplex, a bond-building treatment that works on a molecular level to rebuild the internal structure of your strands while the bleach is working.
We include Olaplex in our blonding services because it drastically reduces breakage, improves hair texture, and helps maintain shine and softness. For clients looking for extra protection, we also offer take-home Olaplex treatments to maintain the results between appointments.
Blonde Hair Still Needs Maintenance
Even with professional lightening and bond builders, blonde hair requires some care to stay vibrant. To keep your tone fresh and your strands healthy, we recommend:
- Purple or blue shampoo to neutralize brassiness
- Sulfate-free, colour-safe products
- Regular toning glosses every 4 to 6 weeks
- Heat protection when styling
Depending on your shade and natural regrowth, you may also need root touch-ups or toners periodically. But rest assured, we’ll guide you through exactly what your blonde will need to stay looking its best.
