Color Correction in Katy: What to Expect (And What It Really Costs)

Brassy box-dye fix? Going platinum? Here's what corrective color actually involves at Katy salons.

By Experts of Katy Editorial

Hair color correction is one of the highest-skill services any colorist does. Here's how to approach it and not destroy your hair.

Always book a consultation first

Any Katy hair salon worth its salt will require a free 30-minute consultation. They'll strand-test, check integrity, and quote properly.

Expect $300-$900+

Color correction is typically priced by hour ($85-$160/hr in Katy), and most jobs take 4-8 hours. Bring a snack.

Bring inspiration photos — but accept what's possible

Black box-dye to platinum in one session is rarely safe. Most corrections happen across 2-3 visits, 4-6 weeks apart.
