There are things you can do to improve the look and style of your hair if it is graying.

If you are still interested in covering up the gray but want to keep your hair, there are things you can do.

  • You can dye your hair to cover up the gray.
  • You can change the color of your hair entirely by adding highlights or lowlights.
  • You can add a tint to your hair that will enhance its natural look and make it appear healthier than before.

When you go to the hair salon, tell your stylist that you want to dye your gray hair but not change its color too much.

Have your stylist pantone-color match the color you want with your favorite shade of gray, so that when the gray starts growing back in you will be able to blend it into the rest of your hair.

This is a hair styling technique called “balayage,” and it allows you to subtly color your hair without drastically changing its overall appearance. Your stylist can take a small amount of dye and apply it to sections of your head, making sure not to saturate all areas at once. The result is an even coloring job that looks like natural highlights have been added throughout all parts of your tresses.

Sometimes changing the color of your hair can make it even more noticeable, especially if you like to wear pullovers or turtlenecks. It’s often better to leave things as they are than risk making them worse.

Dying gray hair can be tricky—the dye might look uneven, and the process takes time and requires patience. There are two options that might work for you:

  • Semi-permanent coloring with a semi-transparent dye (like Manic Panic), or 2) A cream rinse, which will help brighten up your hair as well as thicken it with protein (which isn’t something we recommend doing too often). The choice depends on what look you want—some women love having gray hairs that show through their dark locks!

Your stylist might suggest a transparent coloring process for your grays, one that will match in with existing highlights in your hair.

Another option is a semi-transparent process. This gives a little more depth to the base color of your hair by adding darker tones to it and making it richer and glossier overall.

Some people have good luck with cream rinses or conditioners that are “depositing” dyes, such as Herbatint, Logona, and Sante brands of natural herbal products. These give off a subtle glow that helps hide stray grays very effectively.

Your hair doesn’t have to change dramatically for you to get the results that you want. You can dye your hair at home with help from a trusted friend or family member, or by getting a professional job done at a salon (although I would advise against doing so unless absolutely necessary). If you’ve never dyed your hair before or are nervous about doing so because of the fear of messing up, then check out these steps for an easy DIY dye job:

  • Start off by washing and conditioning your hair as usual. This will protect it while also making sure that any oil buildup has been removed from the scalp area where we’ll be applying our product next.
  • After drying off any excess water with a towel and putting on latex gloves (to prevent staining), mix together two tablespoons each of conditioner and developer product into one cup of water in a large bowl until fully blended together before adding another two tablespoons each conditioner/developer mixture into another small container containing two ounces clear shampoo (this will serve as our dye itself).
