Grey Coverage

 

 

As we age, the amount of hair pigment that we produce lessens, turning the hair clear or grey. As to how

grey you will become, and at what age the process begins, is all down to your genes, so take a close look at your parents for a clue about what will happen.

For optimum grey coverage, you have to choose shades that are closest to your starting color.

Within one to two levels. For the best grey coverage, choose neutral shades. The more grey you have, the

better you'll look in lighter colors. It's best to avoid bright red, burgundy and plum shades. They may be too

bright on your grey.

You can use permanent hair color, which will be needed as often or as much as your hair grows. Most

permanent hair color services need to be retouched every 6-8 weeks. On the other hand, you can use a

deposit only color, which offers no lightening of the hair's current color.

No matter which type of hair color you choose to use, I recommend you select a hair color that is a couple of

shades lighter than your natural color, but still darker than your grey.
