salon color

Professional hair tint

Salon color is hair dye applied by a professional at a salon, as opposed to boxed color from a drugstore.

The term implies higher quality formulations, customized mixing, and expert application: I switched to salon color after the box dye turned my hair orange.

It's also used attributively: salon-color results at home.
