Colour & Twists – Short Hair brings together a professional colour service and a two-strand twist finish, giving short natural or textured hair both fresh tone and defined shape in a single appointment. It's a popular choice for clients in Lutterworth who want their cut, colour and texture to work together rather than as separate steps.
More information
What's Included
The appointment is built around two connected stages: colour and styling.
- A consultation to check hair and scalp condition, colour history, and desired shade
- Colour application (all-over tint, root coverage, or gloss) followed by processing time
- Rinsing and conditioning with products suited to coloured hair
- Two-strand twisting using a leave-in conditioner, curl cream or twisting butter to define and hold the finished style
Is It Right for You?
This service works well if you have short natural or textured hair and want colour that highlights your cut's shape rather than sitting flat underneath it.
- Suits fresh cuts best, since even small length changes affect how twists and colour read together
- Previous bleach, relaxers or colour history can limit how light or bold a new shade can safely go
- Clients wanting vivid or pastel tones may need pre-lightening first, which adds time and cost
- A patch test is generally required 24 to 48 hours beforehand for any oxidative colour
Aftercare and Maintenance
Short hair shows regrowth quickly, so a simple routine helps colour and twists last.
- Avoid washing for the first 24 to 48 hours after colouring to let pigment settle
- Use sulfate-free, colour-safe shampoo and regular conditioning
- Sleep with a silk or satin bonnet or pillowcase to protect twist definition
- Expect twists to hold for roughly 1 to 2 weeks with gentle care, and colour refreshes every 4 to 8 weeks
Our senior stylists Lisa Reeve and Donna Brookes, along with stylist Kasie Pearce, can talk you through colour and twist options at consultation so the result fits your hair's condition and your maintenance preferences.

Always a great experience. The colour and cut are always spot on. I especially love the organic colours this salon uses — I’m allergic to conventional dyes and can only use organic, so it’s a perfect fit. The atmosphere in the salon is always warm, welcoming, and friendly.
