COLOR MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
The Hair Sorceress — Milwaukee

A rough timeline for vivid and alternative color. Your exact cadence depends
on your base, your history, and how bright you want to stay.

WEEK 0  — Appointment day. Wait 48-72 hours before the first wash.
WEEK 1  — First cold wash. Start pigment conditioner every other wash.
WEEK 2-3 — Peak color life. Keep washing minimal.
WEEK 4  — Gloss / toner refresh recommended for cool tones and pastels.
WEEK 6  — Root check-in for high-contrast and money-piece placements.
WEEK 8  — Full refresh window for most vivids.
WEEK 10-12 — Re-lift + re-color for anyone going lighter or fully saturated.

SIGNS IT IS TIME TO COME IN
   - Tone has shifted (pink going peach, blue going green).
   - Visible root line on placement work.
   - Ends feel dry or are grabbing unevenly.

Book refreshes before you hit empty — maintaining color is far easier than
rebuilding it.
