Precise shade matching to existing color

We choose the dye so that the new strands blend into the rest of the hair without a visible border.

Shorter treatment time than with full dyeing

The dye is applied only to the roots – the procedure takes less time and uses less product.

Safe for the condition of hair

The rest of the hair is not exposed to further chemical exposure – only the roots are treated with dye.

The effect lasted for several weeks

The color at the roots is uniform and fresh – without the effect of visible regrowth after leaving the salon.

Root dyeing at PIED-DE-POULE

Root coloring is a treatment focused solely on the newly regrown section of hair—usually the first few centimeters at the roots. The goal is to even out the color so that the transition between the regrowth and the colored section is invisible. This isn’t a simplified coloring—precision shade matching is just as important as with a full color.

We most often dye gray hair roots. Gray strands at the roots become visible more quickly than with other colors—after just three or four weeks, they can clearly stand out from the rest of the hairstyle. We match the dye shade to the existing hair color and apply it precisely, without overlapping with already colored strands.

Coloring gray roots requires careful pigment selection—too cool a shade will result in a grayish streak at the roots, too warm a shade will result in an orange tint. We assess the color and condition of the hair before each treatment; we don’t assume that the previous shade will still be a good match.

Dyeing blonde roots is a separate category—with light hair, the regrowth line is often less pronounced, but dark roots can look unsightly. Depending on the desired effect, we’ll select a dye or refer you to a suitable treatment during your consultation.

How much does root coloring cost at PIED-DE-POULE? The price of root coloring depends on the length and density of the hair, as well as the extent of the regrowth. Root coloring at a hairdresser in Warsaw is priced individually—we provide the cost before the procedure begins.

Contraindications include severely damaged or excessively porous hair in the regrowth area. In such cases, the dye may be absorbed unevenly. If the condition of the strands raises doubts, we recommend first reconstruction of the structure and leveling of porosity.

After the treatment, many clients decide to unification and closure of the shade along the entire length— is a separate treatment that enhances shine and evens out color from roots to ends.

From root assessment to even coverage

Evaluation of regrowth and selection of color

We analyze the length of regrowth, the color of existing hair, and its condition. We select a dye shade so that the line between regrowth and the rest is invisible after the treatment.

Preparation for application

We separate the hair into sections and prepare the product. When dyeing gray roots, we carefully select the pigment proportions—gray strands take on a different color than pigmented ones.

Precise paint application

Apply the dye only to the newly grown roots. Avoid overlapping with previously colored hair—this is key to an even result without double-colored strands.

Uptime control

We monitor the process and check coverage every few minutes. Processing time depends on the shade and degree of gray—we don't use a one-size-fits-all schedule.

Rinse and assess color

After rinsing, we assess the evenness of coverage and, if necessary, correct the spots where the color has absorbed less well.

Care and home recommendations

We apply a cuticle-sealing conditioner and discuss care—how to maintain the color for longer and when to return for another treatment.

FAQ

Every how many weeks should the color at the roots be refreshed?

It depends on the hair’s growth rate and color contrast. For gray roots, usually every four or five weeks. For dark hair on a light base, slightly less frequently, as the line is less sharp.
How much does root dyeing cost in Warsaw?

The price depends on hair length, density, and extent of regrowth. Contact us before your appointment—we’ll provide a personalized, no-obligation quote.
How is this treatment different from full hair dyeing?

The dye is applied only to the newly regrown hair at the roots. The treatment is shorter, uses less product, and is less burdensome to the rest of the hair.
Can you dye your roots if your hair is lightened?

Yes, but this requires careful shade matching. With light hair, even a slight difference in color tone can be noticeable—making color selection a crucial step in the process.
Does the hair look natural after the treatment?

Yes, if the shade is chosen correctly. Our stylists evaluate the color at each appointment—they don’t automatically replicate the previous shade as hair and lighting conditions change.
