At Home Hair Color That Won’t Make You Look Like a Grandma

When you first get a professional hair colorist to apply your color, it can be expensive. There’s no getting around that. But the results will last and you’ll look great for a long time.

If you want your new look to last, then you need to find a good stylist! A good stylist will take their time, listen carefully and make sure that everything is perfect before they give you the final product–and this is worth paying for!

Balayage

You’ve probably heard of balayage hair color, but what is it? Balayage is a french word that means to sweep or paint. In this technique, the colorist uses an angled brush and paints the highlights on your hair by hand. The result is much more natural looking than traditional foiling or cap highlighting techniques because they don’t use harsh lines of color to create dimension in your hair.

For those who want to try this look at home, there are plenty of tutorials online that show you how to do it yourself!

Ombre

Ombre is a gradual blending of one color hue to another. The roots are typically darker than the mid-shaft, which gradually lightens until you reach your desired level of blonde. It’s a good way to ease into a new color without making a big commitment.

Babylights

  • Babylights are a type of highlight that’s done with a very fine hair color brush.
  • The name comes from the fact that you’re highlighting your hair in the same way as you would highlight a baby’s hair if they were getting their first haircut.
  • This technique can be used to give a natural look, especially if you use highlights around the face and neck rather than full-on silver streaks throughout all of your locks.

Sombre

If you’re looking to get a hair color that won’t make you look like your grandma, sombre is the way to go. This style is an ombre effect with an added twist: instead of having the roots darker and fading into a lighter tone towards the ends, they just gradually get lighter. The result is a more natural-looking ombre that doesn’t scream “I am trying so hard not to look old!” when it comes time for summer vacations or important business meetings.

Color Rinse

If you’re looking for temporary color that doesn’t involve harsh chemicals or a trip to the salon, Color Rinse is an ammonia-free, low-peroxide dye that deposits color onto your hair instead of lightening it first. The result? Subtle, natural-looking highlights!

Color rinse is ideal if you want subtle tones without any commitment—and it could be just what your summer hair needs.

Root Touch Up and Grey Coverage

If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to hide your greying roots, try using a temporary root touch-up formula. It comes with a small brush or wand applicator that allows you to apply the color where it’s needed most—at the roots! You can find this type of product at most drug stores or beauty supply shops.

If your hair is naturally black or dark brown but is getting more grey by the day, there may not be much you can do except go visit your stylist every few weeks (or months). However, if you want to maintain your natural color while keeping those pesky white hairs at bay, try using one shade lighter than what actually matches your current shade of hair.

At home hair color might be the best thing to happen to moms during lockdown.
