About Curly Hair Coloring & Highlights
My Approach to Curly Hair Color
I've seen so many curly folks worry about damage from coloring. I started this service because I want you to have color that actually works with your curls, not against them. My goal is always healthy hair first, but I also want you to love how your curls look and feel.
What Makes My Method Different
I don’t slap on color and hope for the best. Instead, I work with your curl pattern, painting color so every coil pops. You get dimension and movement, not flat, lifeless color. I’m all about curl-friendly hair dye and keeping your hair’s natural vibe.
No-Bleach Balayage and More
My signature move is balayage on natural curls - hand-painted highlights without bleach. This technique adds sun-kissed bits or bold pops without wrecking your curl pattern. If you want something subtle, I’ve got you. If you’re eyeing vibrant curly hair color ideas - think berry reds or even purples - I love playing with those shades too.
Color Choices & Embracing Greys
I offer warm tones like chocolate caramel, rich mocha, and sun-kissed browns for that natural look. If you want to make a statement, I’m always down for bold hues. Got greys? I blend them with highlights so they look intentional, not hidden.
The Experience
I use brands like Wella and Schwarzkopf, plus bond repair treatments to keep your hair strong. Every color session ends with a curly cut and styling, so you leave with defined, healthy curls and a routine to keep them looking fresh.

My Story
Hi, I’m Christina. You know, folks always used to say, ‘Aapke baal jhadu jaise hain’ (your hair’s like a broom), and it hurt. I got tired of seeing curly heads struggle just to fit in. That’s why I started Curl Talk. This isn’t just a salon in Mumbai – it’s where curls are celebrated, not hidden. Over 10,000 curlies have sat in our chairs, and every ‘WOW!’ I hear after a makeover keeps me going. My real joy? Watching you fall in love with your own hair.
