Dinna's Expert Hair Coloring Tips for Gray Hair
Choose a shade made for gray coverage. Our Gray Coverage Shadesare expertly formulated to cover even the most stubborn grays.
Use the right tools for gray hair coloring. Applying hair color with a bowl + brush helps ensure saturation of color which means the grays will be gone.
Think thin sections! That is, part your hair in thin sections to apply color (you should be able to see through the sections), so you don’t mistakenly skip some grays
Grays go first...apply color to your grays before the rest of your hair.
When coloring gray hair, give the grays a bit more time. Extend processing to 45 minutes, and don’t start timing until your color is fully applied.
