FOR HER · FROM $60
Bespoke balayage, highlights, glossing, colour correction and grey coverage with ammonia-free Natulique formulations — in our private one-on-one studio.
Hair colour is deeply personal — an expression of style, mood and identity. At True Hair Collective we don't do off-the-shelf colour. Every formula is custom-blended for you, your hair history, your skin tone and your goals.
We work exclusively with Natulique — a certified ammonia-free, vegan, organic colour line — so you get vibrant, lasting results without the harsh chemicals that compromise condition. In the peace of our one-on-one studio, we have the time to be meticulous: precise placement, careful processing, and the small finishing touches that take colour from "good" to "stunning."

It all begins with a conversation. During your in-depth consultation, we'll discuss:
Understanding where you've been helps us create where you're going.
Let's explore your vision together and create a custom plan.
We'll design a shade that complements your natural beauty.
We craft a bespoke colour blend just for you.
Whether you're dreaming of a natural, sun-kissed balayage, a rich all-over gloss, seamless grey blending, or a bold, creative fashion colour, we will design a formula and application technique just for you.
Colour at True Hair Collective is treated as a craft, not a chemical service. Every booking includes the small details that protect your hair's integrity and make the result last longer.
Certified vegan, organic, ammonia-free formulations that lift, refresh and transform without compromising condition.
We talk through your colour history, your inspiration photos, your skin tone and your maintenance preferences before any product touches your hair.
Bond-protecting additives and a Malibu treatment option to clarify mineral build-up before colour, so the formula takes evenly and lasts.
Recommended aftercare products and a realistic maintenance schedule so your colour holds its tone, shine and longevity between visits.
Custom Colour & Toning
Glossing and toning from $60. Full colour, balayage and correction quoted at your consultation. Pair with a personalised cut in the same booking.
Book Your ColourBalayage is hand-painted, lived-in colour with a soft grow-out — perfect if you don't want to come back for root touch-ups every 6 weeks. Highlights are foiled to lift specific pieces, ideal for brighter contrast. A full or all-over colour changes the whole base — best for grey coverage or a complete shade change.
Yes. Mel works exclusively with Natulique — a certified ammonia-free, vegan, organic colour line — and Depot men's grooming. The formulations are gentler on hair, scalp and the planet, with no compromise on result longevity or vibrancy.
Allow 2.5 to 3 hours for a full colour or balayage with cut and blow-dry. A glossing or toning service runs about 1 to 1.5 hours. Colour correction sessions can run longer and always start with a separate paid consultation.
All hair colour fades over time as the cuticle naturally opens with every wash. We minimise it with ammonia-free Natulique formulations, a recommended at-home routine of sulphate-free shampoo and a clear toner, and an in-chair Re-Shine refresh between full colour appointments to lock tone and shine back in.
