Wait 48 hours before the first wash so the colour can settle. Use a sulphate-free shampoo and a purple shampoo only once a week, not every day. Always use heat protection and keep tools below 180°C. Book a gloss or toner every 6–8 weeks to keep the tone fresh, and a deep-care mask once a week.

Usually 2 to 4 months, depending on your hair and home care. Our keratin is applied without a flat iron, so the hair is not exposed to high heat. To make it last, use sulphate-free products, avoid chlorine and salt water in the first weeks, and do not colour your hair elsewhere for 4 weeks.

Keratin bond extensions usually last 3 to 4 months before a refit. Brush from the ends up with a loop brush, sleep with a loose braid, and never apply conditioner to the bonds. Good quality hair, like R&J Maison Couture, can be reused for a second application.

Often yes, but not always in one visit. We start with a free consultation and a strand test, use bond-building treatments during lightening, and plan in steps when the hair has been coloured many times. If lightening would break the hair, we will tell you honestly and offer a safer option.
