Dreaming of going blonde or lightening your dark hair? While the transformation can be stunning, it's important to approach it with patience and care. The process depends heavily on your hair's current condition. If you've been using store-bought box color, the transition may be trickier. Our top priority is the health of your hair, which may require multiple sessions for a gradual and safe transition. One appointment isn’t always enough to achieve your dream light shade. Professional care ensures the process is done correctly, without risking damage.

The Key to Safe Transitioning Hair that’s dark, especially if it's been colored with boxed dye, can be a challenge to lighten. This isn’t just about going lighter, it’s about doing it in a way that doesn’t leave your hair dry, brittle, or damaged. At Sahair Salon, we carefully assess your hair’s condition before we begin the process to determine how many levels lighter we can go in each session.

Why Patience is Key It’s essential to note that the lighter you go, the more care your hair requires. Transitioning to blonde or light shades usually requires multiple appointments, especially if you're starting with dark, box-dyed hair. This allows your stylist to gradually lift the color and nourish the hair between appointments, ensuring it remains healthy and strong.

The Reality of the Process Often, clients see "before and after" photos of dramatic color changes, but what many don’t show is the gradual, healthy transition that happens between the two. Transformations take time, and it’s important to set realistic expectations with your stylist. They will guide you through every step, providing advice on how to care for your hair between visits to avoid breakage and maintain color.
