Every week, I hear the same question: “Emily, how do I keep my roots from showing before my next full color?” If you’ve ever caught yourself tilting your head toward the mirror in bad lighting, you know the feeling. And in Bay Harbor, where the sun is strong and the air is thick, roots don’t stay hidden for long.
What Exactly Is a Root Touch Up?
Think of it as a color refresher, not a full redo. A root touch up focuses only on the new growth near your scalp, usually the first inch or so. It’s quick, precise, and keeps your color looking seamless until you’re ready for your next full appointment.
At LAHH Salon, we match your existing shade so the blend feels natural. Whether you’re blonde, brunette, or rocking a bold tone, a touch up keeps the whole look pulled together.
Why Root Touch Ups Matter
Here’s the truth: roots change how your entire style looks. Even the smoothest blow dry or most polished makeup feels “off” if the regrowth is obvious. A touch up:
- Keeps your shade looking fresh between appointments
- Saves time compared to a full color session
- Protects hair by only targeting new growth
One of my regulars, a lawyer who works near the Bay Harbor Islands Branch Library, books every four weeks. She once told me, “This service saves my sanity before court.” It’s a small step with a big impact.
Not Just for Covering Gray
While a lot of people use root touch ups to stay ahead of grays, it’s not the only reason. Sun, humidity, and even daily styling can make regrowth stand out. Touching up your roots keeps everything consistent, no matter your hair color or age.
How Often Should You Book?
Most clients schedule every four to six weeks. If you’re blonde, you might come in a little sooner since lighter shades can show regrowth faster. Florida’s climate doesn’t make it any easier. A lot of my Bay Harbor clients tie their touch up into a styling appointment so they walk out feeling fresh from roots to ends.
What Happens in the Chair
When you sit down, we start with a quick chat. I look at your color, lifestyle, and what you want to see in the mirror. Then I apply color just where it’s needed, avoiding unnecessary overlap that can stress the hair. While it processes, most people scroll on their phone or catch up on messages. Before you know it, we rinse, style, and you’re good to go.
Extra Tip from the Team
While you’re here for a touch up, consider adding a conditioning treatment. My teammates love combining services because the Florida sun can be tough on hair. It’s an easy way to give your color more shine and keep your hair strong at the same time.
Life in Bay Harbor, Fresh Roots Included
Here in Bay Harbor, we live outside. Between walking to the shops downtown, grabbing dinner, or just being out in the sun, roots don’t hide. Keeping them touched up isn’t vanity. It’s confidence, and it shows in the way you carry yourself.
