Hair Colour Experts in Stanley, Durham
At Olive & Orchard, our approach to hair colouring is rooted in creating beautifully tailored results that feel effortlessly natural. Every shade is thoughtfully chosen to complement your complexion, suit your style and enhance the natural movement of your hair. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all colour, we craft bespoke blends that settle seamlessly, grow out softly and leave your hair looking healthy, radiant and full of dimension.
From lived-in balayage and soft root touch-ups to face-framing highlights and bolder colour transformations, we work closely with you to create a look that feels personal, polished and beautifully you. If you’re preparing for a special occasion, our in-house beauty, makeup and wedding services are also available to complete your look.
Please note: Hair colour consultations are £10, and this fee is fully redeemable against the cost of your colour service. We’re also a colour-safe salon, so if you haven’t had your hair coloured with us for the past 6 months, please pop in for a quick patch test.
To book your colour service, please book online or give us a call at 01207 237832.

Classic Hair Colours
Classic hair colours have truly stood the test of time, adding dimension, radiance, and life to your locks. These soft, wearable shades are perfect if you want to amplify your natural hair without a dramatic change. We can subtly brighten, deepen or refine your colour to create a beautiful finish that grows out gracefully. If you’re preparing for a wedding, we can also recommend beauty and makeup services that complement your chosen shade.


Beautiful Balayage
Balayage at Olive & Orchard is a freehand technique that creates soft, natural blends and sunlit dimension. Each stroke is painted with intention, giving your hair movement, brightness and a finish that feels effortless and grown-in.
Your stylist will customise the placement, tone and intensity to suit your complexion, texture and style, ensuring a seamless, low-maintenance result that’s uniquely yours.
Blonding – Highlights, Lowlights, Babylights and Toners
Whether you want soft brightness, a natural sun-kissed finish, or stronger contrast, our blonding services are fully customised. Highlights add lift and dimension, babylights give ultra-fine illumination, and lowlights create richness and depth.
Toners and glossing refine your shade and maintain clarity between appointments. We tailor each blonding service to achieve the perfect balance of brightness and tone.


Creative Hair Colours
Dreaming of a bold hair colour transformation? Our colourists specialise in creative colours, from bright, vivid shades to soft, pastel hues. Whether you’re looking for a full head of colour or hidden panels -also known as peek-a-boo highlights - we’ll work with you to create a look that feels personal and expressive.
If your hair needs lightening before applying a creative shade, we’ll advise you on how many appointments may be needed to achieve your ideal result. These vibrant colours pair beautifully with our makeup services if you’re preparing for professional photography or a special celebration.
Money Piece
A Money Piece at Olive & Orchard is a bright, face-framing highlight that instantly lifts your features and adds soft, flattering glow. Whether you prefer something subtle or statement-making, this modern technique adds contrast and freshness while keeping your overall look beautifully natural.


Hair Colour Correction
At Olive & Orchard, our colour correction service is designed to rebalance and refine your shade while keeping your hair healthy, hydrated and nourished. Whether you’re dealing with brassiness, uneven tones or a colour mishap, our specialists begin with an in-depth consultation before creating a personalised plan to achieve your desired result safely and realistically.
Using gentle techniques and premium, bond-building products, we restore beautiful, seamless colour without compromising your hair’s condition.
What to Expect From Your Hair Colour Consultation
We always recommend a colour consultation before your appointment. This allows us to chat through your ideas, explore inspiration photos, assess your current colour, and understand the level of maintenance you prefer. We will also examine the condition of your hair to ensure a safe and effective colouring plan. Glossing treatments can also be added to boost shine and refine tone, giving your colour a healthy, polished finish.
