Feeling nervous about your first professional hair color is completely normal. Many of our clients share those same feelings. One of our regulars mentioned that they were apprehensive at first, but the wonderfully warm atmosphere at Mitzie’s Hair eased their worries immediately. You'll find it's a straightforward and enjoyable experience with us.
Preparing for Your First Appointment
To get the most out of your appointment, bring along inspiration photos that reflect your desired hair color and style. This helps us visualize what you’re looking for. Discuss any previous hair processes with your stylist, as understanding your hair’s history aids in achieving the best results. Remember to clarify any allergies; your comfort is our priority.
What Happens During Your Appointment
When you arrive, we’ll welcome you and discuss your inspiration images in detail. After that, your stylist will assess your hair's condition. One of our first-time clients appreciated how we take the time to provide personalized care that addresses individual preferences. You’ll relax in our comfortable chairs while we mix the color, and soon you'll start to see the transformation! Our process usually takes about 60 minutes, so feel free to chat and ask any questions. Clients commonly say how they enjoy the friendly ambiance that addresses their nerves. "Mitzie understands and is able to give me what works for me!"

Caring for Your New Hair Color
After your color appointment, expect to feel a sense of refresh and vibrancy. To maintain that look, we generally recommend using a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to prolong the brightness.

Many of our clients say they feel a boost in confidence after their visit!
