Why Choose Fantasy Hair Color at Gypsy Rose Salon?

When it comes to vivid, high-impact color, technique and quality matter. Fantasy color isn’t a one-size-fits-all process—it’s a precise craft that requires expert knowledge of color theory, lightening, chemistry, and artistic vision.

At Gypsy Rose Salon, you’re in the hands of stylists who are:

✨ Fantasy Hair Specialists
Trained in advanced vivid color placement, our stylists understand how to bring out the best in bold hues. We know how to blend, fade, and transition colors for maximum impact.

✨ Luxury Product Experts
We use professional-grade color lines that offer high pigment load, long-lasting vibrancy, and nourishing ingredients that protect the integrity of your hair.

✨ Creative Collaborators
We don’t just apply color—we co-create with you. Your stylist will help bring your vision to life, whether it’s inspired by your favorite anime character, celestial themes, nature, or abstract art.

✨ Protective of Hair Health
Healthy hair is the best canvas. We balance your fantasy color dreams with hair-preserving techniques, including bond builders, custom formulations, and tailored aftercare.

The Rainbow Prism Process: Behind the Scenes

Fantasy color isn’t an off-the-shelf service. It’s a journey—and it starts with a custom consultation.

1. Consultation & Color Mapping

You’ll sit down with one of our expert stylists to discuss your vision, hair history, desired look, and how bold or soft you want your result to be. We’ll go over:

Ideal colors (rainbow, pastels, jewel tones, neons, etc.)
Placement (full head, balayage, underlights, peek-a-boos)
Lightening requirements
Maintenance level and refresh timelines
Hair condition and what’s realistically achievable

We’ll also create a custom color map—a visual breakdown of where each shade will be placed.

2. Lightening (if needed)

Most fantasy colors require a pre-lightening step to create a bright, blank canvas. This could mean:

Full lightening for bright or pastel results
Selective bleaching for dimensional effects
Use of bond builders like Olaplex or K18 to protect and rebuild your strands

Depending on your starting level and goal, lightening may take one or more sessions.

3. Color Application: The Prism Moment

This is where the magic happens. We apply your selected rainbow or vivid shades using advanced techniques like:

Color melting
Rainbow weaves
Split dyes
Root smudge into vibrant fades
Multi-section panels for movement
Hidden underlights for peek-a-boo moments

Each hue is placed with purpose for maximum flow, balance, and visual movement.

4. Rinse, Treat, Style

Once your colors are set, we use a cold water rinse to lock in pigment, followed by a custom gloss or conditioning mask to hydrate and seal. You’ll then receive a gorgeous blowout and styling that shows off your new hair from every angle.
