Instead of a sharp regrowth line, you get a more lived-in, dimensional finish that looks intentional between appointments. ## What Grey Blending from a Block Colour delivers Grey blending is designed to take you from a solid, all-over colour to a softer mix that works with your natural grey pattern. Your appointment may include: - A detailed consultation to agree your end goal: cooler, warmer, lighter, or a gentle salt-and-pepper look. - Lightening work (often fine highlights or babylights) to break up the block colour and reduce the stripe at the roots. - Lowlights or depth placement to keep the result natural and avoid looking overly bright. - A toner or gloss to refine the shade, add shine, and keep greys looking creamy rather than brassy. - Careful placement around the hairline and parting where regrowth shows first. - A clear plan for the next steps, because a smooth transition usually takes more than one visit. ### Best suited to you if you are growing out a solid colour and want a softer root line This service is ideal if you: - Are tired of the straight “line” that appears as your roots come through. - Want to reduce how often you feel you must colour your roots, while still looking well put-together. - Prefer a blended, elegant finish rather than an obvious highlight look. - Have stubborn darker colour through the mid-lengths and ends and need a staged approach. ### How the first Grey Blending appointment is typically structured (up to 240 minutes) Grey blending from a block colour is a process. The first longer appointment usually focuses on creating the initial break-up of the solid shade and setting the direction for your blend. Expect consultation, sectioning and placement, processing time, then toning and finishing so you leave with a polished result and a realistic plan for what improves next time. ### Follow-on visits and aftercare that keep the blend looking intentional Most clients need a few sessions to reach their goal without over-stressing the hair. Between appointments, the right home care helps keep tone and shine consistent. You will be advised on: - When to return for the next blend or toner refresh. - How to manage warmth or brassiness at home (especially on lighter pieces). - Simple habits that protect the condition of previously coloured lengths while you transition.

It is usually a staged transition, not a one-off service. Most people see a big improvement after the first visit, then need one or more follow-ups to refine the blend and tone. Will you have to strip all the old block colour out first? Not always. Often the block colour is softened by adding lighter and darker pieces plus toning, rather than removing everything in one go. Your hair history and the depth of your current colour will guide the plan. Can I keep some depth and still blend my greys? Yes. Grey blending can include lowlights and root shading so you keep dimension and a natural look. The aim is to reduce harsh contrast while still looking like you. How do I keep the colour looking nice between visits? A toner or gloss plan and the right shampoo choices make a big difference. You may be advised to use a colour-safe routine and, if needed, a targeted product to control warmth on lighter sections. What if my greys are very resistant or wiry? That is common, especially around the hairline and parting. Placement, tone choice, and finishing glosses can help greys sit more smoothly in the overall colour. Your stylist will talk you through realistic outcomes for your hair type.
