If you are looking for superior and healthier haircoloring, you can find it here at Haircolor Experts & More. Our low ammonia, high gloss, custom formulas leave your hair looking and feeling natural.

We are a unique salon specializing in haircolor. Using different chemistry, techniques, and philosophy, we hope to make you love your hair!

Our methods are chemically superior to the standard. They cost US more. The way that hair color is mixed when purchased for home use is not too different from what they do in the best and worst of salons. We see many typical color problems disappear by using a much richer mix of pigment, less developer in the proper strength and buffers, which protect the hair and the skin. We eliminate all or most of burning scalp, staining skin, banding down the shaft, fade and dryness. And we achieve consistent results every time. When it comes to consultations and color cut well, some of our new guests have been abused by the industry and if they want control, we strive to give them their voice back. If they prefer us to take control, we take it

Each hair color formula made here for you is a custom blend of up to 15 different lines and 5 different types of hair colors. We believe that one single line, brand or manufacturer of color offers too few choices for us to create a natural looking, long lasting, vibrant and shiny color. Our numerous and varied techniques make this kind of color a ture thing of beauty. We hold ourselves to the highest standards in our methods while striving to be a friendly and casual place to visit.

COLOR ZEN™ (my invention) is combined into every color formula exclusively here in the salon. COLOR ZEN™ is a moisturizing color additive that prevents fade, skin stain, and among many other things eliminates discomfort at the scalp during processing. Our combination of Color Concentration™ and Color Zen™ improves hair condition by 50% to 80% over conventional haircoloring methods.

In addition, we are the only salon in Michigan that offers air-neutralized permanents and that will custom mix the neutralizer just for you, making you love your perm from the first day.

We practice our art with constant education by giving and taking classes and advanced training. Haircolor Experts & More is a member of the American Board of Certified Master Haircolorists, The International Hair Color Exchange, The National Cosmetology Association, and The Colour Connection. We also offer classes in the metropolitan area for corporations and professionals to help define, refine and maintain your image.

A Word About Our Hair Coloring

The history, art and chemistry of hair coloring go back far in time. Yup, those pesky gray hairs and dark roots have bugged women (and men) since the invention of the mirror. Without giving away all our secrets we want you to know how wonderful the color we use happens to be. This is not 'drugstore' hair color or one simple 'brand name' salon color. Each and every formula we make is custom made to order for you. We use a full color spectrum by mixing several different lines of color, never just one. Four or five buffers are added to each formula to protect the condition of your
hair, your scalp, skin and the color itself. Our method of pigment layering and combination is unique to us alone (I found out on the Internet that we really stand alone in the field of quality)!

Our numerous and varied techniques make this kind of color a true thing of beauty. We hold ourselves to the highest standards in our methods while striving to be a friendly and casual place to visit and receive color services.

This is why we are able to do things other salons can't or won't and produce such natural effects. Our commitment to focus mainly on chemical services gives you our full attention in this area and has made us specialists in color. Your color!
