Why is a colour retouch necessary?

To enhance hair shine
To apply hair color to new growth
To change the hair color completely
To strengthen the hair

The correct answer is: To apply hair color to new growth

A color retouch is necessary to maintain a consistent hair color and eliminate noticeable regrowth of new hair growth. Option A is incorrect because enhancing hair shine is not the main purpose of a color retouch. Option C is incorrect because changing the hair color completely is better achieved through a full hair color application, not just a retouch. Option D is incorrect because strengthening hair is not the primary purpose of a color retouch.
