Lowlights and highlights combine to create a multi-tonal effect that can help hide any unpleasant colors. A mix of light and dark hair can help to distract from new gray hair growth and provide an overall more natural appearance.
A knowledgeable hairstylist will determine if you require highlights or lowlights for your gray hair. By the way, they are not your only alternatives.
Gray Hair Glossing
A hair gloss treatment is another option to blend your gray and eliminate the line of demarcation at the top of your head! Glosses are semi-permanent, meaning they fade away over four to eight weeks, depending on the brand. You could come into the salon whenever you have a special occasion and need a refresher, or you could come in every eight weeks and maintain it.
Have you noticed that your gray hair is coarser? This is because the cells that make your hair color have completed their cycle, and your hair follicles produce fewer moisturizing oils. Applying a gloss to your grays will actually soften your hair. Glosses are typically very hydrating and shiny. They do offer some dimension because they do not go all the way into the hair strand. It is more of a stain that fades with time and can cover up to 75% of gray hair.
Going Au Naturel
Growing gray hair is often not a graceful process. You either opt to go blonde after coloring your black hair for years, or you let it grow in naturally. What if I told you that there was a simpler way?
