Before you book
Gray blending softens the line between gray hair and your natural color. It does not try to cover every gray strand. Instead, colorists use fine highlights, lowlights, a sheer gloss or a soft root smudge. The gray ends up looking like part of a multi-tone color. Since there is no solid block of dye, grow-out looks softer, and many people can go longer between visits. Gray blending suits you if you are starting to see gray, want less upkeep or are moving from dyed hair to your natural silver. Before you book, ask how the colorist would handle your amount of gray, how many visits it may take and what to use at home.
- Bring photos of gray or silver hair you admire, not only photos of colored hair.
- Ask whether your plan will take more than one visit, especially on dark hair.
- Use a purple shampoo now and then if your colorist suggests it for yellow tones.
- Ask about a gloss between visits to refresh tone and shine.

Questions people ask
Will gray blending cover all of my gray?
No. It softens the contrast so gray looks like part of your color. If you want every gray strand covered, ask your colorist about full coverage instead.
Can I blend gray on dark hair?
Yes, though it often takes more than one session. Dark hair needs to be brightened carefully to sit well next to silver.
How often will I need appointments?
It depends on how much gray you have and the look you want. Many people go longer between visits than with full coverage. Your colorist can suggest a schedule.
