The first white hair appears more or less early, there are no rules. Faced with this new look, women react in their own way. Some decide to let their hair whiten naturally, when others prefer to camouflage the white hair and make colorations. When deciding to stop coloring and go gray, how do you maintain a dynamic look and take care of your hair? Ludovic Berget, colorist hairdresser for L'Oréal Professionnel, from Salon Studio in Dreux, gave us his advice. "When the hair has been colored precisely to camouflage the gray hair and a woman wants to pass on its natural color - gray - we try to thin the color gradually," he explains. The idea is to move gradually from a coloring to a work of light locks, until you get a natural gray.

Two-color regrowth for beautiful gray hair

The first step, the most difficult for many of us, is to let your hair grow without coloring. One then enters a phase of bicolority, with white roots and still colored lengths. Little by little, the tips are shortened to the desired length and a nice effect pepper and salt. To speed up the process, it is possible to cut short hair, after letting a little roots grow, to get gray hair faster. For those who wish to preserve their length, it will be necessary to show a lot of patience, and to go through the enlightenment box in the colourist.

A modern cut for radiant gray hair

Gray hair does not exist as such. A gray hair is obtained with the mixture of the hair naturally brown or colored and the new white hair that is left apparent. They often have a different texture, they are harder, thicker. They are also less malleable, so they must be tamed. We opt for a structured cut, to discipline the gray hair. It is advisable to adopt a modern short cut, a pretty square or a worked half-length. Long cuts require twice as much maintenance. To obtain a nice gray color, your hairdresser can gradually discolour, lighten your hair, until you find the right gray, the shade of gray that will perfectly match your skin tone. And as going to gray is absolutely not synonymous with letting go, one can choose to give its gray beautiful reflections pearl or crystal with tone colors on tone adapted. Also, we take care of disinfectants to get rid of the yellowish reflections that tarnish all the most beautiful silver gray, and we regularly apply serums for brilliance. Ludovic Berget insists on patience: "It takes time to get a beautiful natural gray, but patience is worth it. "
