If you start noticing more and more gray hair popping up, you may feel the need to address it. While graying is natural, it is common to feel like you should treat it. Below, we will offer some options for dealing with, or embracing, your grays.

Highlights and Lowlights to Hide Gray Hair

Blending your gray hair or obscuring it with dyes is a common practice. For many, dyeing all of your hair may be too much. However, highlights and lowlights can help blend grays in. This is also less damaging to your hair than full-head color treatments. Add depth and dimension while treating for graying hair.

Embracing Your Gray Hair

Embracing your gray hair can be great. Many styles and cuts can help you own your silver locks. Graying hair is a natural part of aging, but it doesn’t mean it can’t be beautiful. Embracing your silver strands can help you feel more comfortable in your appearance. Overall, embracing your hair can mean doing so to your comfort level. If you are OK with a few strands but not a full head of silver, that is understandable. Your hairstylist can help you find a look that is right for you.

Caring For Graying Hair

Gray hair is generally very different from ordinary hair. Gray hair is often, but not always, more coarse than the rest of your hair. Generally, it will be thinner and more porous than you are used to. This means that your hair may require more TLc to keep it feeling healthy. There are many products that can help you treat gray hair right. Conditioners can help keep your hair moisturized and soft. Purple pigmented shampoo can help reduce yellowing or brassyiness in your grays. If you are dyeing your hair, taking care of your follicles can be even more important.
