Roots Touch-Up — Elaris Dubai
Fresh Colour, Every Single Time You Leave.
A root touch-up isn’t just maintenance — it’s the difference between colour that looks intentional and roots that undo everything. Our certified colour specialists match your existing shade precisely, blend seamlessly, and protect your hair through every application.
Choose Your Touch-Up
The Right Touch-Up for Your Colour
The type of root touch-up you need depends entirely on what’s underneath — your natural base, your existing colour, and how the two interact. We offer three options to cover every combination cleanly.
Roots Bleaching
For blondes and lightened hair, regrowth shows quickly and harshly — a dark line against a light length that undoes the whole result. Roots bleaching lifts the regrowth to match the rest of your hair cleanly, without compromising the lengths that are already there.

Roots Colour
For coloured hair — whether rich brunettes, warm reds, fashion shades or grey coverage — a precise roots colour touch-up applies dye only to the regrowth, matched exactly to your existing shade. The result looks freshly coloured without a full reapplication.
Book This
Roots Highlight
For highlighted hair, new growth breaks the seamless blend between light and dark that makes highlights look natural. A roots highlight touch-up refreshes only the sections closest to the scalp, blending the new growth back into the existing colour without redoing the full head.

About the Service
Your Colour Is Only as Good as Its Roots.
Hair grows roughly half an inch every month. Which means within four to six weeks of your last colour appointment, the line begins — a subtle shift at the scalp between your natural base and the colour beneath it. At first it’s barely noticeable. Then it is. And once you’ve spotted it, it’s all you see.
A root touch-up is the service that closes that gap — but done wrong, it creates new problems. Colour applied without a precise match leaves a demarcation line that’s just as visible as the regrowth it was meant to fix. Bleach applied too broadly, or left too long, damages lengths that don’t need it. The difference between a root touch-up that looks seamless and one that looks patchy comes down entirely to the skill of the colourist applying it — their eye for shade, their understanding of your hair’s history, and their precision in applying only what’s needed, exactly where it’s needed.
At Elaris — a luxury salon chain across Business Bay, Jumeirah 1, Jumeirah 3, and The Village Mall — our Wella-certified colour specialists treat every root touch-up as a colour service in its own right, not a quick in-between. Rated 4.8★ on Google (300+ reviews) and Fresha (200+ reviews), the consistency of our colour results is what brings clients back every four to six weeks, not because they have to — because the result is always worth it.
Is This for You?
For Every Woman Who’s Noticed the Line Coming Back
If you colour your hair, root touch-ups aren’t optional — they’re the service that keeps everything else looking as good as it did the day you left the salon.
- → You’re a few weeks past your last colour appointment — and the regrowth has started to show. The darker or lighter your natural base compared to your colour, the faster the contrast becomes visible. A touch-up now keeps the result looking intentional rather than grown-out.
- → Your greys are coming through at the roots — grey regrowth against a coloured length is one of the most visible contrasts in hair, and it draws the eye immediately. A precise roots colour application covers the growth seamlessly, matching your existing shade exactly.
- → You’re maintaining lightened or blonde hair — dark regrowth against a light length is harsh and fast. Roots bleaching lifts only what has grown since your last appointment, keeping the blonde clean without over-processing the hair that’s already there.
- → Your highlights have lost their blend — highlights look their best when the regrowth is soft and the transition is seamless. As natural hair grows in, that blend breaks. A roots highlight touch-up restores it without the time or cost of a full head of highlights.
- → You’ve had an inconsistent result elsewhere — an uneven match, a demarcation line, or bleach that went further than it should have. A fresh touch-up from a specialist who understands colour matching corrects the problem and gets you back to a result you’re happy with.

Only the Finest Products
Every touch-up uses professional-grade colour systems — the same brands trusted by the world’s best salons — alongside natural, vegan-friendly care products to protect the hair through every application.
Why It Matters
Your Colour Investment Deserves to Last Longer Than Four Weeks.
A good colour appointment isn’t cheap — the time, the expertise, the product. And for the first few weeks, it looks exactly the way it should. Then the roots start to come through. A centimetre at first, barely noticeable. Then two. Then it’s all you can see every time you look in the mirror, and the colour you invested in starts to look like something that happened a long time ago.
This is the loop most women with coloured hair live in — and a roots touch-up is the service that breaks it. Done well, it extends the life of your colour result significantly, keeps the grow-out seamless rather than obvious, and protects the lengths you’ve already got by making sure only the new growth is treated. Done right, it doesn’t look like a touch-up at all. It looks like you just left the salon.
The key word is “done right.” A mismatched shade or an over-applied bleach creates as much of a problem as the regrowth it was meant to solve — sometimes more. The difference comes down to the colourist: their training, their eye, and their willingness to take the time to match properly rather than apply quickly. In a city like Dubai, where the pace is fast and the temptation to rush is real, that care makes the difference between colour that holds and colour that compounds.
At Elaris — across Business Bay, Jumeirah 1, Jumeirah 3, and The Village Mall — every roots touch-up is a precision colour service. The consultation is free. The result speaks for itself.
Colour that looks freshly done — every single time. It starts with the right hands.
Common Questions
Everything You Need to Know
A root touch-up is a colour service that targets only the regrowth at your scalp — the new hair that has grown since your last colour appointment — rather than reapplying colour to the full length. The process starts with your specialist assessing your existing colour and your natural base, matching the shade precisely, then applying bleach or dye only to the regrowth area. The result keeps your colour consistent and seamless without re-processing hair that doesn’t need it.
At Elaris we offer three types: roots bleaching (for lightened and blonde hair), roots colour (for coloured hair including grey coverage), and roots highlight (for highlighted hair where the blend needs refreshing). Your specialist will confirm which is right for you at your free consultation.
Most women need a root touch-up every four to six weeks — hair grows roughly half an inch per month, which means visible regrowth appears within weeks of your last appointment. The timing depends on how much contrast there is between your natural base and your colour: the sharper the difference, the sooner the line becomes obvious.
For balayage or ombré, the grow-out is deliberately softer and many clients stretch to every three to five months. For precise root colour, highlights and blonde hair, the four to six week rhythm is usually right. Your specialist will recommend a realistic schedule for your specific colour and lifestyle at your consultation.
Elaris Beauty Salon is rated 4.8★ on Google (300+ reviews) and 4.8★ on Fresha (200+ reviews), and is recognised as one of Dubai’s leading luxury destinations for professional colour. Our Wella-certified colour specialists approach every root touch-up as a precision colour service — matched, applied and blended with the same care as a full colour appointment — across four locations: Business Bay, Jumeirah 1, Jumeirah 3, and The Village Mall.

Done correctly — applied only to the regrowth, with the right product at the right timing — a root touch-up is one of the least damaging colour services because it avoids re-processing hair that has already been treated. The damage associated with root touch-ups usually comes from two mistakes: applying bleach or colour beyond the regrowth zone (which overlaps onto previously processed hair and compounds damage), or leaving product on for too long.
Our specialists apply only to new growth, time precisely, and use professional-grade products designed to minimise chemical stress. For clients who want additional protection, we can add a bond treatment such as Olaplex to the appointment — your specialist will mention it if your hair would benefit.
Yes — shade matching is a core part of what our colour specialists do, and it doesn’t require your previous colourist’s formula. The assessment before your appointment looks at your existing colour under different lighting conditions, your natural base, and how your hair has faded since your last appointment, then formulates a match that blends seamlessly with what’s already there.
If you have a photo of your previous colour result, sharing it over WhatsApp before your appointment helps. The more context we have, the more precise the match. Your specialist will confirm they’re happy with the match before applying anything.
Yes — most clients combine their root touch-up with a blowdry as part of the same appointment. Adding a hair treatment works well too, usually applied after the colour has processed and been rinsed, so your hair leaves conditioned and healthy rather than just freshly coloured.
Keratin and certain other chemical treatments are sometimes better scheduled separately from a colour service — your specialist will advise on timing if you want to combine services. Mention everything you’re thinking of at your free consultation and we’ll plan the appointment to deliver the best result from everything at once.
