Is it bad to use a heat dryer at a salon when coloring your hair?

my friend told me a telltale sign of a bad salon is one that uses heat dryer to spend up the coloring process, such as beauty brands. is this true?Is it bad to use a heat dryer at a salon when coloring your hair?
Not necessarily. Some color additives such as color accelerator drops require heat to activate, and the heat source should be a dryer. However, I am always leery when I see colorists use a dryer to speed up foiled highlights. While this can be done successfully, it takes special application on the stylists part to prevent the bleach or color from bleeding, which results in stripes or spots at the roots. I find heat lamps to be more predictable when processing foils (particularly when it comes to a beginner stylist), but then, it just depends on the stylist and what they have been trained to do.


Bottom line is, if you trust the stylist is experienced and you see clients leaving his/her chair with good looking haircolor, then you should trust the stylist to know which heat source will work best. Every stylist has their own way of doing things, and if the results are good, then their method is fine. However, if you are unfamiliar with the stylist, and feel uncomfortable with their practices, then it might be in your best interest to ';shop around';. The best way to find a good stylist is to ask people whose hair you like which stylist they go to.Is it bad to use a heat dryer at a salon when coloring your hair?
