The Secret to Beautiful, Radiant Hair
When was the last time your hair felt truly shiny, fresh, and healthy? Many clients love their color but notice that a few weeks after their appointment, the vibrancy fades, brassiness sets in, and that salon-fresh look starts to lose its spark.
Here’s the good news: you don’t need a full color service every time your hair needs a boost. A gloss or toner refresh can make all the difference. Think of it as a quick beauty treatment—like a facial for your hair—that restores shine, corrects tone, and revives color without the time or cost of a full color session.
Let’s explore why this treatment is such a game-changer, how it works, and why so many clients make it a regular part of their hair routine.
What Exactly Is a Gloss or Toner Refresh?
Gloss vs. Toner: The Basics
Hair Gloss: Adds shine, smooths the cuticle, and enhances or subtly adjusts tone. It can be clear for a reflective finish or tinted to refresh faded color.
Toner: Neutralizes unwanted undertones like brassiness or yellow hues and fine-tunes your overall color, whether you’re blonde, brunette, or have highlighted hair.
Both services take about 20–30 minutes and can be paired with a haircut, blowout, or conditioning treatment for an even more polished result.
Why Choose a Gloss or Toner Refresh?
Benefits at a Glance:
- Instant Shine Boost – Your hair looks silky and healthy immediately.
- Color Correction – Say goodbye to brassiness and faded tones.
- Low Commitment – A quick fix between major salon visits.
- Damage-Free – Gentle formulas that enhance hair health.
- Customizable – Tailored to your unique hair needs.
How Often Should You Book a Gloss or Toner Refresh?
Most people benefit from a toner refresh every 4–6 weeks to maintain a vibrant, polished look between highlight or full-color appointments.
If you love your hair to look flawless all the time, combining this service with a blowout or Olaplex Conditioning Treatment is a great way to keep your style looking fresh and healthy year-round.
