Hair Colouring
Great Hair Colour from Two Moons in Ingleby Barwick & Nunthorpe
As leading hair colour experts, we know colouring hair can completely transform the look of any hairstyle and breathe new life into a current look. Whether you’re looking to touch up your balayage or make a bold statement with a bright new colour, our specialists at Two Moons Hairdressing in our Ingleby (Stockton) and Nunthorpe (Middlesbrough) salons will make sure you achieve your perfect look.
If you’re feeling a bit wary about colouring your hair, then semi permanents are a great way to start. Semi permanents are wonderful for balancing root to end fade, enhancing existing tones or blending away your first greys with minimal commitment or effect on condition.
Once you’d like to be more adventurous, or for multi-tonal colouring our very own best selling service ‘flying colours’ is a foil intro, and a bespoke placing of a small amount of foils which we still believe to be the best material for use with an off the scalp application. A thorough consultation as well as aftercare hair care advice is given with every colour treatment (you can book this prior to your visit if you prefer).
Award-winning luxury treatments are available to enhance the hair colouring process & add longevity to your investment. We use and recommend products from Olaplex and Milkshake to care for coloured hair. Our stylist will give you a personalised suggestion in the salon.
Hair colour services must be accompanied by a cut and finish or colour blow dry. Extremes of length or thickness may require a time/product surcharge. Skin tests are mandatory 48hrs before a colour service for new clients, this can be booked online along with a consultation or pop in if you just need the test.
How it Works & What to Expect
As with all our services, your hair colouring appointment will start with a consultation conversation with your stylist that helps us deliver you the perfect service. Depending on your hair type (thickness, length, and colour) and the service you require, hair colouring appointments can take from 2 – 2 ½ hours from start to finish.
While we get to work transforming your hair, you can relax in our beautiful, friendly salon spaces and enjoy your time as we look after you. Hair colouring services are also always accompanied by a haircut & finish, so you can really get the best out of your new colour. Before you leave, we’ll provide you with aftercare advice and styling tips, so you can keep your style and colour perfectly maintained.
Balayage Hair
Balayage is the current No1 trend created in France. The word ‘Balayage’ literally means ‘to sweep’ or to ‘paint’, describing the professional gestures to achieve this iconic sun kissed effect on the hair.
If your hair is light brown, or was once naturally blonde and has darkened over the years, balayage can create a naturally lightened effect for your hair. Balayage doesn’t have to only apply to a natural sun kissed look either. For example, if you wanted a silver or grey toned blonde, but did not necessarily want it applied as a block tone, using balayage as a technique can give your hair colour fluidity and variation.
Flying Colours
Flying Colours is one of our best selling services which involves a bespoke placing of foils, around the head and away from the scalp. It’s the perfect intro to foils. The effect can be subtle or bold, and is always gorgeous.
Flying colours can be used to break up block colours like semi permanents & traditional tints being used for grey coverage & give them a new lease of life or on natural hair when a full head/ half head foils are not desired.
Full Head Foils & Half Head Foils
A full head of foils will achieve a fully highlighted look, and will be necessary if you have longer hair. The foils for a full head treatment will be spread over the whole of the head.
For a half head treatment they will just be placed over the top, temple to crown and the sides to cover up any regrowth where the hair is most visible. Usually a full head and a half head treatment is alternated. If your hair is very short (a bob or shorter) than a half head or ¾ head of foils may be enough.

Hair Colouring FAQ
What hair colour suits me?
There’s not really a right or wrong answer here. As always, we recommend discussing your choices with your stylist during your consultation. Our specialist team will be able to offer you expert advice and help you to weigh up your options taking into account your skin tone, colour of hair & the colours you like to wear.
Can you colour hair when you are pregnant?
It is not advised that you colour your hair during the first trimester of your pregnancy. If you are in your second or third trimester and would like to have your hair dyed, then contact our team to discuss what could be suitable and work best for you. Of course, foil techniques keep the colour away from the skin far more than other methods.
What is balayage?
The word balayage comes from the French word “balayer” – to sweep. And, as the name suggests, balayage is basically a technique that involves your hair stylist sweeping the colour onto your hair without using foils. This sweeping method achieves a result which appears more subtle and naturally blended than regular highlights done with foils. The balayage technique is usually applied to achieve a beautiful blonde ombre effect that gently blends towards the roots, although it can be pulled off in several different ways. Talk to your stylist about the look you’d like.
Is Olaplex Worth It?
The hype around Olaplex products isn’t all for nothing. If your hair is feeling a bit frazzled, dry, or in any way damaged, you’ll be thrilled by Olaplex’s reviving powers.
If you regularly visit the salon to have your hair coloured or lightened, then speak to your stylist about how Olaplex and Smartbond treatments could help your hair feel healthy and strong again. Our Olaplex Colour Service Upgrade only costs £20-24, so you can add it to your hair colouring appointment to keep your locks as shiny and healthy as ever.
