    My trick is using at-home semi-permanent dye-just color, no peroxide or damaging chemicals. It fades gradually and just kind of softens everything as I grow out my gray. I was using a brown shade, but I may switch to silver/gray now. I also use purple shampoo.

      Same, I baby light w bleach -below- the silver/greys, then use both silver over dye and purple conditioner. The highlights blend the out growth, and it's really shiny. EMBRACE the silvers, they're beautiful

    Thanks for the tips! I applaud you for going grey as I know Indian culture doesn't always embrace greying hair. My husband is Punjabi but he never used color like most of the men we know. I have always colored but now I want to go natural and I am encouraged by women like you who took the plunge and came out looking beautiful!

      This is a fantastic idea! I have been seeing gray since I was 15. I am thirty-one and I am fed up with dying my hair black. I already tried the buzz cut and it took forever to grow out almost five years (waist length). I am ready to try your way. It is more conservative and more accessible.

    I came over from your insta to watch this. What an amazingly simple and useful video for transitioning to grey. I started going grey in my early 30s! First it was just a few strands but by late 30s it was markedly visible so I began dyeing my hair. As my hair grows fast I found myself at the hairdressers once every 5 weeks! Am 49 now and was really getting tired of the time & money I was spending on it. This pandemic made me rethink my lifestyle including who I wanted to be vs how I was expected to be. I decided to embrace my greys and not be ashamed of it! For the first time in 12 years I feel free. It's just been a month and my roots are visible! It makes me uncomfortable & anxious (years of social conditioning I suppose) but I've decided to go cold turkey. With Asian dark black hair the greys are starkly noticeable. I keep watching your insta updates for inspiration & motivation. Loved this video...on days I falter I will come back to this. Thank you. 😊

      Hey there - thank you so much and well done you for just ditching the hassle, the time waste and the chemicals! I strongly believe that once women get fed up with living up to other’s expectations and find they’re not enjoying the dying process then just ‘stop’ !
      The first few months are the most difficult, get through those and there will be no stopping you!!! The silver sister community is one of the best I’ve ever come across xx

      There are some great colour removers on the market that help you get to your natural colour sooner. I tried Zalon and it made my hair feel really healthy after stripping back the build up from dying.

  • @stephanieconte1316
    @stephanieconte1316 2 года назад +10

    The process you’re referring to in #7 is called “lowlights” but in giving you lowlights your stylist had to “fill in” your hair with the spectrum of colors that fall between “blorange” and the dark color you want. This is to ensure a natural and long-lasting result. Since bleach strips all the colors out of your hair follicle, to get back to dark you have to add or “fill” them all back in.

    I'm 43 and last year I did my transition to grey in way number 1. I got my hair cut really short and took it from there. It takes a long time to grow it back, that's a fact, but it also grows more homogeneous and healthier. I don't regret it at all, quite the opposite in fact. I love my natural hair. It's perfect as it is. Very proud of my decision. Love from Spain btw..

    You are gorgeous and such an inspiration! I have been growing out my roots since March but made a horrible mistake in June getting highlights to help the transition. It was an expensive lesson for me to learn patience. I think “filling in” or lowlights could help me for my next phase but I am going to wait longer for my hair to heal. It turns out my roots are coming in very dark and salt & pepper but the major gray is around my face like yours. Watching your videos gives me hope. Thank you 🙏.

However, it's great that you break down every option & its pros/cons. I've always been a pixie fan, but the thin crop is so edgy & fierce. Might be the perfect excuse😏 but the "filling in" trick seems perfect since I'm a very dark brown naturally. Thanks so much!🌺🙏❤

    You’re so lovely! Loved your advice as it pertains to anyone. I decided last April to stop coloring as gray is gorgeous and very IN now. I saw a pic of a woman probably younger than me at 56 who’s gray hair was gorgeous and she looked like my twin! So I quit ordering from E-Salon and just stopped everything. I bought Redken purple shampoo and conditioner and used it a couple days a week. In my profile pic I was at 5 months and you can’t tell! In the sun I still look like a blonde as my natural color is ash blonde. I’m at 9 months and I had no idea I’m only really gray in the front and side but not the back. Keeping my hair curled really helps with the demarcation lines in the back. The sides are blonde and gray and I have those really great money pieces as my gray is heavy on the front middle. I’m so excited to have the blonde gone, but I’m just trimming the bottom as the top grows to lessen the blonde length. Thank you for taking us on your journey! Your silver hair is stunning with your complexion.🙌🏻🥰

    I'm 57 and was bleached. So I filled in and dyed to as close to my natural dark brown as I could. At the moment I am cold turkey but may go with the strip dye technique if it gets to be too much. Unlike others I just cannot do a buzz or pixie because I love my long hair. I didn't really start going grey until I was 55 but I suspect I will be like my mother who at 76 STILL has dark hair underneath and at the back. Great video outlining ALL the options.

    Awesome tips! I grew few greys in my early thirties, but they were deep inside my many layers of hair, so not so visible at the time. Once I turned 35-36 they slowly became more visible on the outer layers. By 41, it was about 7% grey. I'm currently at 10% grey at 44. Funny enough, I now take better care of my hair than I ever have before. Not yet ready for cold turkey grown-out grey style, but I do color it once to twice a month (probably will try highlights/balayage). It's pricey, but I'm prepared to go cold turkey grey when the time is right. I might even opt for wigs, including funky fashion colors, since I've always had loud, flamboyant taste. For all the younger ladies out there: please don't take your hair for granted; accomplish all your hair goals before the greys make their way in : - )

    After I found out how sensitive I was to chemicals which also effected my health. I decided to go as natural as possibe. When you dye your hair it goes to you bloodstream I think is very toxicating. No wonder why many women suffers all kinds of deaseses.
    My suggestion, health is first!
    Drink plenty of water, exercise everyday, take hair vitamins and don't be shy to embrace your grey hair!
    You're all beautiful! 🥰

Another option grey/silver hair helpers, strands, scruchies, extensions. etc. In addition, my fave love sleek hair toppers letting bio darker hair down. Strands are great for lighlights or lowlights.

    What a great video showing the options. I let my gray grow out a few years ago. Some gray some dark brown. But the gray was dull and I felt drab so I started dying my hair a lot! Browns and Gingers. But I want my gray back again. I tried the decolour only one box once on the top half of my head and it took off the first layer of colour - brown, which left a vibrant orange/ginger. I worked out it would cost hundreds for me to strip the colour out so for now I'm ginger brown, with touches of gray. 😊

In any case thanks to you I shall leave it to do it’s own thing. Lol Thank you 😊 no color it would be a nightmare to keep up! Have a great day ❤.

    I'm 44 myself .....and I started transitioning to grey myself.....almost did the bleach method......but hair is very fine and would have fried my hair ......and was growing it out to shoulder length...... my hair is naturally a level two dark brown and I noticed that I was probably about 50 to 60% gray already...... I used high-level blonde hair color level 10 series the lightest I could find in an ash tone..... the rule of thumb is that color won't lift color but slowly and surely by using a 30 volume developer on it I was able to strip out the hair color going lighter to levels every time........ then I would use Redken Shades EQ on my hair..... so if I came out with a blood orange hair I was able to counteract it with a toner to get me sort of a darker blonde Sandy color...... then as the demi-permanent washed out of my hair I would use another session of high-level blonde hair dye to technically work as a slow lifting action...... I don't even have a name for it but technically I use the high-level blond series permanent hair color as like a slow slow slow process lifting bleach almost it did less damage to my hair and it was more of a six to nine-month process...... and just like when somebody bleaches their hair and they tone it out the orange with a blue based that's technically what I used to tone out with the Shades EQ ....... and I noticed that the Shades EQ is a very very light dim my permanent died that would fade and yes you can use it to cover the gray if you use it for 40 minutes...... as I said I don't even know if this is a process that people know about but I did it gradually just like a step at a time and it was a little bit easier for my hair than bleaching it all out at once..... also I did start using once I got a little bit more into the grey gravestones the fanciful Roux rinse the colors true steel and silver lining they helped me not have that yellowish tone to my Gray's or other hair

    My mother is 57 but looks 48 and she dyes her hair dark brown like every 2 weeks to hide her grey hairs, it worries me because she seems so obsessive about it, and it makes me very sad because her hair is totally fried not even olaplex helps her so much...so she is sad to have dry frizzy hair and coloring her grey roots.
    I told her to go grey and I'm wondering what are some good tips for her to transition? She has beautiful shoulder length hair, which she finally let it grow out after I've been telling her for more than 5 years, so it would be very sad to cut it short now.
    What can I do to help her transition to her grey hair? any tips I would appreciate, thank you everyone reading this

    My experience with hair stripping was that it works on dark dye as dark dye deposits colour but bleach takes pigment away. Not sure if it’s true but years ago I stripped years of box dye away and it worked quite well 🙌🏼 I’m a cold turkey girl! Like you said, once I committed to the transition I’m too scared to get it coloured or blended haha. Another great video x

    What about doing a colored hair glaze at home? I am thinking of trying this as I have very dark brown hair that I made the mistake of but I have dying for a while and now with so much gray coming in the transition line is just ridiculous looking. I’m hoping that the glaze will not completely cover the grays but will make the transition smoother and then overtime if I just stop re-applying the glaze it’ll naturally fade leaving me with only my real hair color gray and all?

    I'm 59 and currently going through chemo, which means I lost my all hair. I'm thinking of going grey when it grows out again, but I have doubts that I would look 70 instead of the age I am. I really don't need to feel worse about myself than necessary. I'm about 40% grey, at the sides and front mostly. I have olive skin tone and a diamond face shape ( this face shape doesn't age well imo). Due to the chemos I had 14 years ago ( + additional "treatments) and these ones im getting now, my skin has long lost its elasticity past than would be normal for a 59-year-old. This combined with the unattractive face shape and that although I have a lot of hair but quite thin in texture makes me doubt that it would be a good idea going grey, even though I'm sick and tired of dying my hair every 5 weeks. I see women with oval face shape and firm skin and they look great and beautiful with grey hair. I think I would just look like my own grandmother 🙂

    • @TheGreyIndian
      @TheGreyIndian  3 года назад +3

      Hi Acca, im sorry to hear of your struggle. I hope the chemo is coming along successfully for you. I know its a hassle dying the hair, but honestly you do what feels good for you and what makes you happy, maybe once the side effects have subsided and your hair has grown you can transition. For now, just feel better and do what makes you happy xxxxx sending you love xx

    You're so beautiful!
    Also, I thought you'd say that you're 29 or 30 years old.
    I opted for the highlighting option (my hair dresser is great (and he's a silver fox himself) and he loves greys so he put a bunch on teeny tiny highlights where I had more greys and barely any where I had fewer greys). They've grown out quite a bit now (even though you cannot tell at all), but people still ask how often I do my highlights. They're very surprised when I tell them I did them twice a year last year, and won't do them anymore, as the highlights just naturally grow out of my scalp now. LOL
