What is the main goal of a color retouch service?

The primary aim of a color retouch service is to cover regrowth and maintain the overall hair color. This service focuses on addressing the visible roots that have grown out since the last color treatment, blending them seamlessly with the previously colored hair. By doing this, the stylist ensures that the hair color looks fresh and consistent from the roots to the ends, enhancing the overall appearance of the hairstyle.

In this context, lightening the overall hair color or completely changing the hair color pertains to different services, such as highlights or a full color change, which are not the focus of a retouch. Similarly, removing hair dye is a distinct process, often involving corrective color treatments that may not align with maintaining the existing color. The retouch service specifically targets the regrowth area to provide a polished and cohesive look.
