An expert guide to going grey now it’s in fashion

Having grey hair was once a source of concern for us. We have always been trying to find ways to delay its onset.

Not anymore.

– embracing their graying or snowy or salt-and-pepper locks. Now the look is something people aspire to.

From grey to silver to pewter – figuring out which colour to choose, how to keep it looking its best, and how long everything will take to happen are all important things to think about before getting started.

No matter what your natural hair colour is, whether it's your bright blonde or your fiery red locks, as we get older, the colour starts to change and can turn white or grey.

Leading Canadian hair stylists answer the most frequently asked questions when it comes to grey haircare, providing the ultimate guide to embracing going grey.

The root cause

The point at which you see your first grey hair is largely a matter of perspective.

“At around 50 years of age, the average individual has approximately 50% of their hair turn white.”

“Some medications and medical conditions can also cause hair to become white. For example, a lack of vitamin B12, pernicious anaemia, and thyroid problems can cause early greying of the hair.”

“Stress has also been associated with early hair whitening,” notes Kingsley.

What is the typical duration involved in completing this process?

It takes a variable amount of time for someone to achieve a full head of grey, whether they're just starting out or have experience with it.

If you're keen to make a smooth transition from colour to grey, Haug suggests consulting a colour professional.

They can help remove heavy colour residue, gradually lightening your hair and reducing the contrast between your roots and ends.

If you've coloured your hair throughout your life, but are getting tired of it, there's a different path you can take when going grey.

If you've been dyeing your hair, "you can go for highlights," says Haug. "If you've had all-over colour, highlights can help soften the harsh line between your natural grey and the old colour, allowing your natural colour to blend in more smoothly as it grows in."

It's just as vital to get the cut right as choosing the right colour for your hair, because silver hair can really benefit from a strategic haircut that creates lots of definition, like a sleek bob or a crisp, edgy cut.

Determining the correct shade for your skin tone

Similar to blonde, grey comes in a variety of tints, shades, and hues to choose from.

“Folks with a cooler skin tone and light-coloured peepers will look sharp in shades of platinum and silver, whereas those with warmer skin tones and darker eye colours suit charcoal and slate better.”

“Ultimately, the colour of grey you pick will depend on whether you want a subtle look, or looking to make a strong impression,” says Henery.

She suggests choosing platinum shades that are on the lighter side if you have fine hair, as this can enhance the brightness and create the illusion of more volume.

Every person's hair is unique, and what works for someone else may not work for you. Be patient, and don't be afraid to try different methods until you find what works best for your hair.

Aging hair, particularly grey, is more prone to damage than regular hair, so it necessitates a tad more tender treatment.

“Grey hair has different demands – it often becomes dry and can pick up a yellowish tint over time,” he explains, “So hydration and toning are crucial.”

Using a weekly hair mask and cutting back on heat styling is key, as hair is at its most brittle when it's damp and more susceptible to harm.

Try skipping the blow dryer and soaking your hair for a bit, then rough-dry it, brush through with a comb, apply a heat protectant, and finally dry with the blow dryer.

One thing about greying hair is that it's best not to let it look dull. “Keune's Silver Savior Shampoo and Conditioner are excellent for eliminating brassy tones in grey or white hair, while keeping it soft and easy to manage,” says Benson.
