Questions about free hair color
Will I need a patch test?
+
Often, yes — many salons require an allergy patch test 48 hours before color. Ask the stylist when you message them.
Why would a salon do my hair for free?
+
Stylists in training need real people to practice on before they work with paying clients. Salons and beauty schools run model sessions so apprentices can build skills and portfolios — you get the service free or at a big discount.
How do I book a model session?
+
Open a session, tap Message, and introduce yourself with a recent photo of your hair. The stylist will confirm the time and any requirements.
Who does the work?
+
Apprentices, assistants, and beauty-school students — usually supervised by an educator or senior stylist who checks the result.
