What the shade delivers
Color Black 1b is a pure, deep black shade intended to produce a bold, classic finish. The visible result is shaped by your starting hair color and texture: on naturally dark hair the shade appears uniform and sleek, while lighter or previously colored hair will show richer contrast and may need different follow-up choices.
Clients should expect a noticeably deep black appearance without dramatic tonal shifts; the outcome emphasizes depth rather than highlights or dimension. Environmental factors such as frequent sun exposure and humid summer months in Columbus can subtly change how the black reflects light, so what you see immediately may shift with outdoor conditions.
Who it suits best
This shade is well suited for anyone seeking a sleek, polished black. Because the service is $10 and takes 5 minutes, it works very well as a quick touch-up or finishing color for clients on tight schedules — commuters, Fort Benning personnel, and local students who appreciate fast salon visits.
Our Midtown location, easy access from I-185 and Veterans Parkway, and flexible hours make single-step color updates convenient for clients combining appointments with a walk along the RiverWalk or a visit to the National Infantry Museum. Service area includes Columbus, Phenix City, Fort Benning and nearby communities.
Care and longevity factors
How long the deep black look lasts depends on washing frequency, heat styling and exposure to sun, humidity and chlorinated water. Hair porosity and prior chemical treatments also influence how the pigment sits and fades. Regular maintenance routines and avoiding abrasive detergents will help preserve a more consistent black appearance over time.
Seasonal demand peaks in January, September, October and December for reasons like autumn color transitions, holiday events, and post-holiday resets; expect higher appointment volume then. The regional humid subtropical climate in Columbus can affect styling choices and perceived shine, so plan touch-ups around your activity and local weather exposure.
