What Is an Express Mini (and Why It Might Be Perfect for You)

Sometimes your roots pop up before your next full appointment, and you just want a quick fix! That is exactly why we created the Express Mini. At Prickly Pear, we know that not every visit needs to be hours in the chair. This one-hour appointment is designed to provide fast grey coverage right where you need it most. You will leave polished and confident without the time or cost of a full service. Here is everything you need to know about Express Minis and why they might be the perfect in-between service for you.

What Exactly Is an Express Mini?

An Express Mini is a one-hour appointment that focuses on targeted grey coverage. We apply color to the areas where regrowth shows the most—your hairline, part, and t-zone. This service does not include foil work or a full blow-dry style, so it is truly a quick in-and-out visit. Think of it as a retouch for your most visible areas, designed to stretch the life of your color until your next regular service.

Who Is It For?

The Express Mini is perfect for returning guests who want to look polished between their full appointments. If you are covering greys, attending an event, or simply want your color to look fresh without waiting, this service was made for you. For the health of your hair and the best long-term results, we allow one Express Mini between regular Minis. Express Minis must be booked 4-6 weeks after your last full color appointment.
