From Grey to Heyyy… By Jenna Pace
From Grey to Hey – Aurelio Salon and Spa in New Jersey
This guest came to me with 100% grey hair from roots to ends. After being all grey for a few years, she was ready for a new darker look! We had a thorough consultation and decided to make her a dark brunette with a hint of a red/copper tone. When coloring 100% grey hair it’s best to use permanent hair color to prevent fast fading. Determine what level the guest would like to achieve and make sure the color you choose together is dark enough to completely cover the grey.
Formulate using mostly from the “N” series with 20 volume developer for the best coverage possible. Always apply starting at the root first then combing through the ends if needed. Make sure to let the color process on the head for the full time needed, which is generally 30-45 minutes.
After giving her the round layered bob that she desired, I applied Goldwell’s Double Boost and Sleek Perfection. She then received a voluminous sleek style finished with Goldwell’s Big Finish.
To properly maintain colored hair an appointment for a touch up is needed about every 3-5 weeks. For best results it’s good to use color safe shampoo and conditioner for at home care between salon visits. In addition to help prevent fading, avoid excess sun exposure and chlorine water. Also using cool water to rinse your hair will help the color last longer and will add more shine. Follow these easy tips and stay looking younger for longer!
