If you’re looking to transform your hair color without the commitment (or price tag) of a full highlight or balayage session, a Single Process Color is the way to go — and Venelle Salon & Spa does it better than most.

Known for their expert colorists and individualized care, Venelle offers single-process color services that are rich, vibrant, and perfectly matched to your tone, texture, and personal style.

💡 What Is a Single Process Color?

A single process is one all-over color treatment applied in a single step. It’s a great way to:

• Go darker or richer

• Add warmth or coolness to your natural shade

• Cover grays

• Refresh faded color

• Tone or deepen pre-lightened hair

Unlike highlights or balayage (which involve lightening sections), a single process covers your entire head with one shade — though skilled stylists (like those at Venelle) can add dimension by adjusting tone and depth.

If you’re covering gray, this is the ideal service. Venelle uses high-quality, ammonia-free options that cover grays completely while keeping your hair shiny and soft.

🍂 2. Golden Chestnut

Warm and dimensional, this chestnut tone brings softness and glow to natural brunettes or darker blondes.

🧴 What to Expect During a Single Process Appointment at Venelle

Step	What Happens
1. Consultation	Your stylist will assess your natural color, texture, goals, and hair history. They'll help you choose the most flattering tone.
2. Application	The color is applied to roots or all over, depending on your needs. It's even and efficient, with attention to coverage and saturation.
3. Processing Time	You'll relax while the color develops — usually 25 to 40 minutes.
4. Rinse + Treatment	The color is rinsed with care, followed by a color-safe shampoo and (if requested) a gloss or bond-repair treatment.
5. Blowout + Style	Every color service ends with a pro blow-dry so you leave the salon feeling styled and polished.

🧼 How to Maintain Single Process Color

• Use a sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo

• Wash no more than 2–3 times per week

• Use a gloss treatment every 4–6 weeks to refresh tone and shine

• Avoid hot water when rinsing

• Limit heat styling or use a heat protectant

• Protect from sun/chlorine when possible

Venelle’s stylists will recommend products specifically for your tone and hair type so you can maintain that salon-fresh look between visits.

🗓️ How Often Should You Come Back?

• Gray Coverage: every 4–6 weeks

• Tone Refresh: every 6–8 weeks

• Full Recolor: every 6–10 weeks depending on fading and root growth

Pro Tip: Ask your stylist about “root touch-up” appointments — a quick refresh that’s faster and more affordable than a full recolor.

🔥 Why a Single Process Is the Ultimate Fall Refresh

• Cover grays completely

• Give your hair fresh shine and life
