Embracing Your Gray—Natalie’s Story

How Natalie is Growing Out Her Gray—Gracefully and Naturally

If you’ve ever thought about growing out your gray but felt overwhelmed by the process, let me tell you about Natalie. Her journey to embracing her natural silver is something so many women can relate to.

Meet Natalie: A Journey to Natural Gray

Our first visit.

Getting lighter

Almost grown out gray.

For years, I’ve colored Natalie’s hair a rich chocolate brown with reddish undertones—a color that always suited her beautifully. But as time passed, her gray roots began showing in just 10 days!

Coloring every 10 days is exhausting, not to mention tough on your hair. So Natalie decided it was time to transition to her natural gray—without an awkward grow-out phase.

A Gradual, Blended Approach

Instead of stopping color completely (which can leave a stark contrast between the dark ends and silver roots), we took a more gentle, gradual approach:

✔ Step 1: Adding Soft Highlights – By incorporating strategic highlights, we helped blend her existing color with the new silver strands coming in.

✔ Step 2: Letting Her Gray Shine – Over time, Natalie’s natural color grew in gracefully, without a harsh grow-out line or drastic change.

The Beauty of a Thoughtful Transition

Now, Natalie doesn’t need to be in the salon every 10 days—she goes up to 6 weeks between visits and feels more confident than ever. Her silver blends seamlessly into her hair, giving her a natural, dimensional look she loves!
