How the double process works
A double process is a two-step color method: the first step lifts natural or previously colored pigment, and the second deposits a new shade or tone. At consultation we discuss your desired level and tone, evaluate hair condition and prior color, and explain realistic outcomes. This helps set expectations before any chemical work begins.
Results are shaped by your starting color, porosity, and hair health. Stylists adjust timing and toning choices to reduce brassiness and refine the final shade. Clients often value a cooler, cleaner blonde result and improved-looking hair tone, which comes from careful lifting followed by targeted toning rather than one-step color changes.
Hair health and maintenance
Because the service involves lifting pigment, preserving hair health is part of the plan. We recommend post-service conditioning and a maintenance routine tailored to porous or previously treated hair. Many clients report less yellowing and healthier-looking hair after professional toning and follow-up care when using recommended products and following stylist guidance.
Local climate and lifestyle affect maintenance: Boca Raton’s warm, humid weather and seasonal pool or sun exposure can increase brassiness. Busiest months — May, Jun, Oct, Nov — reflect higher demand for platinum and refreshed blondes before summer and holidays. Schedule touch-ups with consideration for your commute and weekly activities to protect the tone.
Appointments and local access
Price and time are part of planning: Price: $159 - $185 and Duration: 105 MINUTES. Salon Sora’s Midtown Boca location near Glades Road and North Military Trail is convenient for clients coming from Boca Center, Town Center at Boca Raton, FAU, or nearby suburbs. We serve Boca Raton and neighboring communities for easy appointments during errands or work breaks.
Expect a focused consultation when you arrive, friendly front-desk assistance, and the option to combine your salon visit with nearby shopping or dining. Staff can accommodate clients who need to work during longer services, and they’ll explain aftercare and product options so you leave with clear next steps for maintaining your color.
