A **Half Head Regrowth Tint** focuses colour on the new growth at the roots across the parting, crown and sides, leaving the underneath hair largely untouched. It's a practical option for clients who already colour their hair and simply need to blend regrowth and refresh grey coverage without recolouring the full head.

## What to expect during the service

Your stylist at Timba will begin with a consultation to check your colour history, grey coverage needs and scalp condition before choosing the right shade and formula.

-   Hair is usually assessed **dry and product-free**, ideally not freshly washed, so natural oils help protect the scalp
-   It's **sectioned into clean quadrants** to expose the regrowth clearly
-   Tint is applied **only to the roots**, working close to the scalp without overlapping onto previously coloured lengths
-   **Development time** is typically 30 to 45 minutes, depending on your hair and the coverage required
-   Hair is **rinsed thoroughly** and finished with shampoo and conditioner to restore balance

Our colour specialist Ceri O'Brien, along with senior stylists Katie Williams, Lucy Osborne and Hannah James, can talk you through the right approach for your regrowth and grey coverage during your visit.

## Who this service suits

A half head regrowth tint works well if you:

-   Already have coloured lengths and just need the roots refreshed
-   Wear your hair down most of the time, so the underneath sections aren't on show
-   Want to maintain colour between larger, full head appointments
-   Have grey regrowth at the parting, crown or sides that needs blending

If the underneath hair shows strong regrowth, or you often wear your hair up, a **full head regrowth tint** may give a more even result throughout.

## Aftercare and maintenance

Good aftercare helps keep the refreshed colour looking glossy and even for longer.

-   Avoid washing hair immediately before your appointment, but also follow your stylist's guidance on timing your first wash after
-   Use **colour-safe shampoo and conditioner** to protect vibrancy
-   Limit heat styling and protect hair from strong sun and chlorinated water
-   Most clients rebook every **4 to 8 weeks**, depending on how quickly regrowth becomes visible

If you've previously used box dye at home or noticed uneven colour, let your stylist know. They may need extra time to assess and correct any banding before applying the tint.

## Frequently Asked Questions

What is a half head regrowth tint?

It's a root-only colouring service that targets new hair growth across the top of the head (parting, crown and sides), refreshing colour and grey coverage while leaving the underneath hair mostly untouched.

How long does a half head regrowth tint take?

The service takes from 60 minutes, including consultation, application, development time (usually 30 to 45 minutes) and rinsing.

How much does a half head regrowth tint cost at Timba?

Prices range from £36 to £42, depending on your hair and the coverage required.

How often should I book a half head regrowth tint?

Most clients book every 4 to 8 weeks, depending on how quickly their natural regrowth becomes visible.

Do I need to wash my hair before my appointment?

It's best to come with dry, product-free hair that hasn't been freshly washed, as natural oils help protect the scalp during application.

Will a half head regrowth tint cover grey hair?

Yes, when the right shade and formula are chosen and processing time is followed, a regrowth tint can give solid coverage or a softer grey blend in the treated area.

What's the difference between a half head and full head regrowth tint?

A half head regrowth tint refreshes the visible top sections, while a full head regrowth tint covers regrowth throughout the whole head, which suits clients who wear their hair up often or have strong regrowth underneath.

Will the tint affect my previously coloured lengths?

No, your stylist applies colour only to the new regrowth and avoids overlapping onto already coloured hair to prevent banding or over-darkening.

Is a patch test needed before this service?

Yes, a patch test and consultation are standard before a regrowth tint to check the product is suitable and reduce the risk of an allergic reaction.
