Which colour highlights are the best for covering grey hair

Grey hair happens to us all, and it can happen at any age! For some, it’s perfectly fine. It’s part of a natural process. They are happy to embrace it. For others, it’s an unwelcome change. They would prefer to banish grey hairs forever. If you count yourself in the latter category, read on for some great colouring tips to hide your greys.

Most of us start by just plucking the few stray greys here and there, or have our hairstylist cut them out each time we come in for a blow dry and styling. Those methods last a little while, but eventually there are just too many and it’s time for something else. Fortunately, hair highlights are an easy, effective way to cover up grey hair. They’re so natural looking you’ll forget you ever saw grey in the first place. 

Hair highlighting in Kits is available at our salon no matter what colour of hair you have. The same general tips for colouring your hair apply to grey-covering highlights too.

If your hair colour falls in the blonde to red range, opt for lighter highlights in bright shades like ash or platinum. This will help cover up grey hair and blend it in seamlessly with the surrounding hair.

If your hair falls in the brown spectrum, go for warmer tones to mimic the gorgeous natural highlights you’d get from the sun.

Conversely, instead of going brighter using highlights, you can go darker using lowlights. This is a fantastic option for darker hair colours to conceal emerging grey while adding dimension and depth at the same time.

There are a lot of options depending on the colour of your hair and the amount of grey you’d like to conceal. If you’re looking to explore your choices for hair highlighting in Kitsilano, Vancouver, come see our expert colour specialists. They’d love to talk to you!
