Understanding Aveda Organic Hair Color
Aveda's plant-based hair color system uses naturally derived ingredients instead of harsh chemicals like ammonia. This approach is gentler on your hair and scalp while still providing vibrant, long-lasting color. The formula contains up to 96% naturally derived ingredients, including plant oils and botanical extracts that condition hair during the coloring process.
Unlike traditional hair color that can strip and damage hair, Aveda's organic system helps maintain hair integrity. The ammonia-free formula means less odor during application and reduced scalp irritation, making it an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin or anyone seeking a more natural approach to hair color.
Choosing Between Highlights, Balayage, and Full Color
Highlights use foils to lighten specific sections of hair, creating contrast and dimension. They're ideal for adding brightness around the face or throughout the hair. Balayage is a freehand painting technique that creates a more natural, sun-kissed look with softer regrowth lines. Full color provides all-over coverage, perfect for covering gray, going darker, or making a dramatic color change.
During your consultation, your Trend Salon stylist will assess your current hair color, condition, and your maintenance preferences to recommend the best technique. They may also suggest combining techniques for a customized result that suits your lifestyle and color goals.
Color Correction Explained
Color correction addresses unwanted tones, uneven color, or damage from previous coloring services. This specialized service may involve removing old color, neutralizing brassy tones, or rebuilding hair integrity before applying new color. Color correction often requires multiple steps and extended appointment time.
Trend Salon's experienced colorists can assess your situation and create a plan to achieve your desired results while prioritizing hair health. They'll be transparent about what's achievable in one session and may recommend a gradual approach for severely damaged or problematic color.

Who Is Hair Color (Aveda Organic) Good For?
Good candidates: Anyone seeking hair color with a more natural, plant-based approach. Ideal for those with sensitive scalps, anyone covering gray, or clients wanting highlights, balayage, or full color using gentler formulas.
Who should consult a doctor first: Color correction cases, previously chemically treated hair (relaxers, perms), or if you've had adverse reactions to hair color in the past. Your stylist will assess and create a safe plan.
General safety: Aveda's ammonia-free formula is generally gentler than traditional color, but patch tests are recommended for those with known sensitivities. Always inform your stylist of any scalp conditions or allergies.
