Root Touch-Ups 101

Keeping Your Color Flawless Between Appointments
By Wysteria Glam House

Let’s be real: nothing ruins that fresh-from-the-salon vibe faster than peeking in the mirror and spotting roots creeping in. Whether you’re a platinum blonde, a radiant redhead, or rocking a deep brunette, root touch-ups are the secret weaponto keeping your hair color looking polished, rich, and effortless.
At Wysteria Glam House, we believe your hair color should feel like an extension of your confidence—not a ticking clock. So let’s break down everything you need to know about root maintenance, and why those regular touch-ups are more than just upkeep—they’re self-care.

🌿 What Is a Root Touch-Up?

A root touch-up is a focused color application that targets the new hair growth at your roots. Typically needed every 4 to 6 weeks, it refreshes your color without a full dye job, blending new growth seamlessly with your existing shade.
Whether you’re covering grays, maintaining a fashion color, or just extending the life of your balayage, root touch-ups are a low-commitment way to stay fresh.

💡 Why Regular Root Touch-Ups Matter

Seamless Color: Avoid that “helmet hair” look with consistent blending.
Healthier Hair: Less full-head coloring = less chemical stress.
Confidence Boost: Your hair color is one of your most visible accessories—keep it vibrant!
Time-Saving: Root touch-ups are quicker than full appointments (hello, lunch break glam!).

✨ Pro vs. DIY: Why We Recommend Coming In

Sure, there are box kits. But here’s the deal: at-home root color is often a one-size-fits-none. It can lead to banding (uneven color layers), over-processing, and shade mismatch.
At Wysteria Glam House, our color experts tailor each touch-up to your exact formula, tone, and hair type. We track your color history, adjust for seasonal changes, and use high-quality, nourishing products that leave your scalp and strands happy.
Bonus? You get the salon experience—head massage and all.

🌸 How Often Should You Book?

Gray Coverage: Every 3–4 weeks
Fashion/Vibrant Colors: Every 4 weeks
Natural Color Matching: Every 5–6 weeks
Blondes/Balayage: You may get away with 6–8 weeks depending on your style—but root shadowing or toners may help extend your look.

💜 Wysteria Tip: Root Touch-Up + Gloss Combo

Want extra shine and color vibrancy? Pair your root touch-up with a gloss treatment. It adds a luminous finish and seals in color like a top coat for your hair.
