There’s also an amazing trick suggested by LA hairstylist Jessica Warburton who shared it in her interview for Matrix hair products:

“… Which looks better on you, silver jewellery or gold jewellery?. If they (clients) say, ‘silver jewellery washes me out,’ I tell them they’ll have the same result with silver hair colour and they probably won’t be happy with it”.

Dark grey hair colour is more versatile. It will suit any skin tone except very pale skin. It may look tired with a grey background.

How to get grey hair at home

Brunettes wishing to achieve a light grey colour would need to strip out their natural colour with hair lightener first, and then apply the Silver Grey hair dye. Bleaching may be stressful for your hair, so try to lighten your hair safely and do it in a few sessions.

Apply dry shampoo before going to the gym to skip washing your hair afterwards. When going to the shower, use a shower cap to protect your hair from water and additional sweat.

Use paraben-free hair products designed for coloured hair and find a nice purple shampoo/conditioner to maintain your silver grey hair.
