How to go gray with style

You’ve decided to let your gray hair have it’s way but you want to do it with style.

You may have been color treating your hair for years and hate the look of your gray roots.

Gray hair may be just the right decision for you – think Meryl Streep in ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ But how do you get to full on gray without looking and feeling more like the Wicked Witch of the North in ‘The Wizard of Oz’.

It’s all about managing the transition. You have to put in a little effort and give your gray locks some tender loving care as they emerge.

Here’s some great tips for getting beautiful gray hair effortlessly:

Keep your hair in tip top condition. Hair texture changes when it loses color – you may find it’s more wiry or coarse and certainly drier than it was before. Step up the deep conditioning treatments to restore gloss and shine. Use a special extra conditioning shampoo and conditioner with every wash.

Give your hair a treat – use a deep conditioning hair mask once or twice a week.

Use finishing products after you style your hair to give the appearance of gloss and shine to your gray hair.

Eat to give you hair shine and body – make sure you get plenty of vitamins and eat an antioxidant rich diet to boost hair condition from within.

Drink lots of water – 2 liters a of pure still water a day to keep your digestive system cleansed. A sluggish digestive system shows in dull hair.

Take a supplement specifically for hair health or even for hair restoration to boost essential vitamins and minerals.  Taking a natural hair restoration product can make your hair grow at a faster rate and will help you go gray more quickly.

Revamp your makeup as more gray emerges – gray hair can make you looker more pale and may lead to a washed out look. Treat yourself to some new makeup in colors that boost your complexion and strengthen your skin tone.

Pay extra attention to skin care – shiny gray hair and a younger looking skin is a great combination. If you haven’t given much tender loving care to your skin now is the time to start.

Fade to gray gradually if you have colored hair.  Visit your hair salon more regularly to cut off the old color treatment and get some lowlights to blend in the new gray as it emerges.

Get a new hair style. Stylish gray hair means a great cut so talk to your hair salon and revamp your look.

That’s it – follow these simple tips and you will be well on the way to having great looking gray hair – stylishly!
