Greying hair is just a part of growing older, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it — there's a lot of beauty packed into those silvery strands.
Now, just because you have grey hairs, doesn't mean you have to love them. And if you choose to cover them up, you probably have a very close relationship with your hairstylist. Skilled professionals know how to blend hair colours, strategically place highlights and lowlights to make managing roots a little easier, and have methods that will make your head of hair look amazing as it grows out.
However, there is a point in everyone's hair journey where a touchup is necessary, but your favourite salon has a calendar that's booked solid. In these trying times we have to turn to other methods to help hide grey hair (or at least help it blend a little more seamlessly) between appointments.
Luckily, many haircare and hair colour brands understand that dye can be risky, especially when dealing with grey hair. If you're looking to cover your greys without using harsh chemicals, we suggest using a spray or a powder.
The most effective method for concealing grey hair depends on your natural hair colour. If your hair errs on the pale grey or white side, a lighter blonde might work best for you. Alternatively, if you have a darker hair colour you might opt for a more ashy brown shade to neutralize and blend with your greys, or add a few highlights or balayage for a seamless look.
