The Colourist Board
The Colourist Board- personalised colour analysis
Your personalised colour direction session
Exclusively at Minx Contemporary Hair Boutique
The Colourist Board is a dedicated 20–30 minute consultation designed to take the guesswork out of your hair colour.
If you’ve ever felt unsure about what tones suit you, worried about choosing the wrong blonde or brunette, or just wanted a clearer plan before committing — this service is where your colour journey should start.
It’s thoughtful, personalised, and all about creating colour that works with you, not against you.
And it doesn’t stop at hair — this session also helps guide your makeup and clothing colour choices, so everything feels more cohesive and flattering.
What Is The Colourist Board?
The Colourist Board is a professional colour analysis appointment using our in-salon Colourist Board system to determine the most flattering colour direction for you.
Instead of vague descriptions or trend-based choices, we use the board to help guide:
-
Your most suitable tone direction
-
The depth that suits you best
-
The overall feel of your future colour
This allows us to plan your colour with intention, not guesswork — while also helping you better understand which makeup shades and clothing colours compliment you most.
What Happens During Your Appointment
Your session runs for 20–30 minutes and is focused entirely on you and your colour goals.
