Enhance your natural gray hair by brightening it up with white hair dye for a super modern platinum look. Visit your colorist to lighten the areas where you aren’t naturally white. And use the L’Oreal Paris Le Color Gloss One Step In-Shower Toning Gloss in Silver to tone, neutralize and add a silver finish to naturally graying or white hair, color-treated silver hair or bleached blonde hair. If your hair doesn’t need toning, you can opt for a hydrating hair mask like the L’Oréal Paris EverPure Sulfate-Free Signature Masque, Color Care Hair Mask. This mask works to restore smoothness, enhance shine and deeply hydrate dry, color-treated strands. Trust us when we say that silver hair does not need heat styling to look fire. Your newly silver strands will seriously benefit from less heat so opt for air drying or hairstyles you can achieve sans hot tools, like beach waves or space buns. If you’re naturally a curly beauty, reach for a curl enhancer like the L’Oréal Paris Elvive Dream Lengths Curls Non-Stop Dreamy Curls Leave-in Conditioner to bring out your hair's natural wave and texture.

(F.I.L. C233724/1) description":"Did you know that our most coveted natural blonde shades are in fact the result of a chance genetic mutation? This genetic change is so tiny that it involves only one letter amongst the three billion that make up your DNA. It’s therefore not surprising that only 2% of blondes are au naturel, as even the most iconic blonde bombshells have nearly all had a helping hand from the dye bottle.

Even better news, if it turns out grey isn’t the right colour for you after all then Colorista Spray is also available in seven vibrant colours – giving you a sensational shade for every day of the week! Why we love it: Fun colored highlights are a great way to add some depth and dimension to your silver strands. Golden highlights are popular for blonde hair because the tones complement each other, so why not amp up your silver hair with complementary lavender highlights? Since silver and lavender are similar hues, you can also use your purple shampoo to preserve both colors.

As we said, your silver strands will likely experience some damage from all the bleaching and maintenance they require so using a conditioning mask to hydrate and deeply nourish is one of the best things you can do for your hair. Once a week, switch out your conditioner for a purple conditioning mask like the L’Oréal Paris EverPure Sulfate-Free Anti Brass Purple Mask Treatment. This intense treatment contains purple dye to tone brassy strands and keep your silver hair vibrant while deeply nourishing dry, colored strands. Silver hair often requires bleaching and routine touch-ups which can lead to damage like breakage and dry, brittle strands. So, once you’ve done all the work to carefully dye your hair silver, it’s time to switch up your hair care routine for products made for color-treated hair to preserve the icy, silver tone and give your strands some much-needed love. description":"Getting regular salon highlights can be a pricey business.

Editor’s tip: You’ll also want to keep a purple shampoo and conditioner handy to protect your color and prevent brassiness, which can turn your silver strands to an unwanted shade of yellow or orange. We love the L’Oréal Paris EverPure Sulfate-Free Brass Toning Purple Shampoo and the L’Oréal Paris EverPure Sulfate-Free Brass Toning Purple Conditioner because they keep your color bright and cool-toned while moisturizing the hair. Wash with the EverPure Silver Care line daily, and use the EverPure Toning Purple Shampoo one to three times a week, as needed. Editor’s tip: If your silver strands look dull, opt for a glossing treatment like the L’Oréal Paris Le Color Gloss One Step In-Shower Toning Gloss in Silver or Silver White (two-tone silver hair can opt for the Clear gloss). This at-home glossing treatment will add vibrance, enhance shine and leave your strands with a luxurious, silky feeling.Get yourself in the mood for some pampering with a playlist of your favourite songs (Okay, this one’s optional, but we highly recommend it as this is going to take some time!)

Changing your hair color isn’t always a simple decision, but once you’ve settled on a new shade, there are a few hair dye logistics you’ll want to consider. Some hair colors require more work and upkeep to achieve and maintain — silver being one of them. Anytime you decide to opt for a lighter hair color, you’ll need to bleach your hair. If you’re starting with a dark base, it may take multiple sessions of bleach to reach your desired level of silver. Then, reach for the L’Oréal Paris Colorist Semi-Permanent Hair Color in Purple to create your streaks. This semi-permanent dye lasts four to eight washes, offering a temporary pop of color that also comes in shades of Blue and Pink. To fully achieve a gorgeous shade of grey, you’ll need to first bleach your hair and then dye it. Make sure that you’re really committed to your new colour before you start. Before you go all the way gray, it might be best to consult with a professional colorist who can guide you through the process and skillfully manage your transition to silver hair. If you plan to DIY the hue, the L’Oréal Paris Hair Color Concierge is available with live experts who can help you color with confidence and ensure your desired result.But what if you’re not ready to go maximum vibrancy just yet? If this sounds like you, it could be time to dip your toe (or, more accurately, your hair strands) into the great, wild world of dip dye. Get the look : As we’ve mentioned before, dark hair that wants to go silver will need to lighten their strands with the Colorista Bleach or the Féria Hyper Platinum Advanced Lightening System Bleach in Extra Bleach Blonding. If you’re already starting with light hair, go for silver with the Féria Multi-Faceted Shimmering Permanent Hair Color in Silver and carefully follow the instructions included in the box. If your mind jumps to a dreary, dishwater color when you think of gray hair, it's time to reconsider going gray. Attaining an enviable shade of chic shimmery platinum, smoky gunmetal or stylish silvery blue might be just a bottle of hair dye away! Toner will take away any yellow undertones from your bleached hair, and is an essential part of the process to make sure your final shade of grey hair is as vibrant as possible. Once the product’s been applied, leave it on for about twenty minutes to work its magic.
