If you’re tired of seeing gray roots pop up after just 10 days and spending every four weeks in the salon, you’re not alone! The good news? There’s a solution that gives you more time between visits while keeping your color looking seamless—gray blending!

Gray blending is a customized coloring technique that softens regrowth and extends the time between touch-ups. Unlike all-over color, which can create a stark contrast when your roots grow in, gray blending makes the transition more natural and effortless. Every client’s gray pattern is unique, which is why your blending technique should be, too!


5 Ways to Embrace Your Gray with Blending:


🌿 Lighten up your base – Gray blending doesn’t mean you have to see gray! A softer base color makes regrowth less noticeable and easier to maintain.


Add highlights – Since gray hair is naturally lighter than your previous color, adding highlights can help bridge the gap between your natural silver and your dyed hair, making the change feel more gradual.


🌑 Incorporate lowlights – If certain areas feel too light, adding darker pieces will break up the contrast and create dimension, making the transition even more seamless.


💫 Heavily highlight around your face – If you tend to notice that white strip of regrowth first, adding more highlights around your face can make it blend naturally with the rest of your hair.


💁‍♀️ Customize your transition – Whether you want subtle blending or a bolder transformation, I’ll guide you through the process every step of the way.


Why Gray Blending?


Less maintenance – Extend your touch-ups from every 4 weeks to 6–12 weeks!✔ No harsh grow-out line – Soft, natural blending means no stark contrasts.

A personalized approach – Your gray pattern is unique, and your color should be, too!


If you’re ready for more freedom between appointments and a smoother transition to embracing your gray, let’s create a customized gray-blending plan just for you!
