Single Process Color in Princeton & West Windsor Township, NJ

Single process color is an all-over color application, and it's one of the services most affected by New Jersey's hard water, which can pull warmth out of a fresh color job within a couple of washes. Dawn formulates every single process service with that mineral content in mind rather than using a generic base formula.

This service is available on its own, with a blow dry added, or paired with a Women's Haircut in the same appointment — let Dawn know which you want when booking. Clients with longer hair, significant gray coverage, or a color correction in progress may be charged an extra color fee to cover the additional product; Dawn will flag this during your consultation, not as a surprise at checkout.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between this and a gloss?

Single process color changes your base tone (including gray coverage); a Gloss is a shorter, color-depositing treatment that refreshes tone and adds shine without changing your base color as dramatically.

Why would I be charged an extra color fee?

Longer or thicker hair, heavy gray coverage, or a color correction can require more product than a standard single process application — Dawn will tell you in advance if your hair falls into that category.
