About Hair Coloring
My Color Funda
For me, hair coloring is more about your mood and style than copying what's trending. I believe any shade can look great as long as the tone feels right for you. I don’t just slap on hair dye - I want to help you find something that fits your personality and makes you feel like yourself, but brighter.
The Chat Comes First
Before I even mix up a color, we’ll have a proper chat about:
- What your hair’s already been through (including all those jugaad experiments)
- How you like to dress, your work, and your overall vibe
- Your skin tone and what colors you actually enjoy wearing
- How much you want to fuss with your hair every day
It’s not a grilling, just a way to make sure the color works for you, not just on Insta.
Your Color, Your Story
- Want something out-there? I love mixing up creative hair color ideas, whether that’s bright anime shades, skunk stripes, or a custom Y2K pink.
- Prefer it subtle? I’m big on balayage for Indian hair, with soft, natural highlights that blend right in and look different in every light.
- Color gone wrong? Tension mat le (don’t stress), I do color correction for hair dye fails, always putting your hair’s health first.
- Rocking greys? I offer grey hair coloring without bleach, even for bold shades.
Healthy Hair, Always
No re-bleaching already bleached hair - only new roots. I recommend a good gap between touch-ups. Scalp and hair health come before trends, always.
Why Work With Me

My Story
So, Zido started out with me, Zingranwon from Manipur, and Dodo, true Bombay style. We didn’t plan to be hair people, but here we are, 15 years and still snipping. I moved to Mumbai at 17, thought I’d clean windows, ended up loving hairdressing. Our Bandra spot is all about mixing cultures, celebrating every personality. We crack jokes, work hard, and give back—like donating sales or helping cancer patients with hair. It’s family vibes, not just a salon.
