Expert hair colour services at Beauty Beehive, 101 St Georges Road, Glasgow. From seamless root coverage to full transformations, our colourists deliver precision and longevity.
Obsidian Clinics offers a full range of professional hair colour services at Beauty Beehive in Glasgow's West End. This includes full head colour, root coverage, toning, colour correction, and vivid fashion colours. Every service begins with a detailed consultation and a mandatory patch test to ensure your safety and the best possible outcome for your hair.
Our colourists work with premium professional colour brands to deliver rich, long-lasting results. Whether you are covering grey, refreshing a faded colour, or embarking on a complete shade change, the consultation ensures the chosen colour complements your skin tone, lifestyle, and maintenance preferences. No two clients are the same, and we never apply a one-size-fits-all approach to colour.
All colour services include a toner where appropriate to refine the finish and neutralise unwanted warmth or brassiness. Aftercare product recommendations and a tailored home care regime are provided at every appointment, so you can extend the life of your colour and maintain its vibrancy at home.
Mandatory 48 hours before your first colour appointment; applied behind the ear to check for any adverse reactions to the colour formula.
Detailed shade selection, discussing your desired tone, maintenance preferences, and lifestyle requirements to find the perfect colour for you.
Hair is sectioned systematically and colour applied methodically from root to tip, or root only for a touch-up, ensuring even, complete coverage.
Colour develops under heat or at room temperature depending on the formula; processing time typically ranges from 20 to 50 minutes.
Colour is thoroughly rinsed and a toner is applied to refine the final shade, neutralise brassiness, and enhance the overall finish.
An optional gloss treatment may be applied for additional shine and longevity; hair is then blow-dried and styled to complete the service.
Yes — where appropriate, a toner is included in the service to refine the final colour. Toners neutralise unwanted brassiness, add cool or warm tone, and create a more polished, salon-finished result. Your colourist will advise whether a toner is beneficial for your chosen shade.
Permanent hair colour typically lasts 4–8 weeks before a root regrowth touch-up is needed. Semi-permanent and demi-permanent colours fade more gradually and may last 4–6 weeks. Regular toning appointments between colour sessions can help maintain vibrancy.
Permanent colour is formulated for full grey coverage and is highly effective on most grey percentages. For very resistant greys, your colourist may recommend a specific processing technique or a longer development time. We can also create softer grey blending effects for a more gradual or intentional result.
A patch test is required at least 48 hours before your first colour appointment and is recommended before every appointment if a significant amount of time has passed since your last service. This is a safety requirement — allergic reactions to hair colour, though rare, can be severe. We take this seriously for your protection.
Hair colour (full head or root touch-up) involves applying colour systematically to all hair or all roots for uniform coverage or an all-over shade change. Balayage is a freehand painting technique that creates a graduated, sun-kissed effect with natural-looking grow-out. Both are available at Obsidian Glasgow and can be discussed at consultation.
We recommend colour-safe sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner, a weekly colour-protecting hair mask, and a UV protection spray for outdoor use. Your colourist will recommend specific products based on your colour type and hair condition at your appointment.
