How To Love Your Gray Hair
The newest, attention-grabbing hair color seen on the streets of NYC and at the salon, is gray -- or more aptly named white, silver, pewter, and every shade in between. With the availability of new treatments and conditioners made to enhance gray hair's color and condition, this once-maligned hair hue has become a new style option, not just the last resort for women of a certain age. The women we see at the salon who opt to go gray say they've made the choice because they like the look or are weary of the endless fight with roots. Whatever the reason, when well- maintained and styled, gray hair can be dramatic and elegant.
How to Go Gray
The first step to a color-free future: Ask for a consultation with your colorist to discuss your hair's particular needs, and then outline a plan for graying gracefully. Your options might include gradually decreasing the processing time for your regular single process formula, allowing the gray hair to become prominent gradually, adding lowlights for definition, and adding glosses for shine. Be sure to schedule regular appointments to ensure hair looks its best every step of the way to gray.
What many women need to understand is that going gray is not your ticket to low-maintenance hair. In fact, though you may be spending less time with your colorist, your care treatment and product budget may rise. Gray hair needs constant maintenance and care from an arsenal of specific products to keep it from looking dull and drab. by Mark Garrison, Ladies Home Journal
