Grey Blending
Transitional Grey Hair Colour
Grey blending is a hair colouring technique designed to soften the contrast between grey strands and your natural base colour. It offers a low maintenance colour solution for grey hair coverage and unlike traditional full coverage hair colour, grey blending works with your natural greys so you won’t be left with a harsh regrowth line.
Popular methods include using colour glosses to camouflage and blend grey and white hairs, to create beautiful salt-and-pepper shades and silver fox hues. Techniques such as babylights, highlights, lowlights or a combination of all three can be used to create your perfect look.
During your consultation, our experienced team will talk you through the best options to achieve a beautiful, seamless result. Please note, depending on your desired outcome, multiple appointments may be needed to get everything just right.



Start With a Lighter Hairline
The team at The Cutting Studio recommend beginning with a lighter hairline, as this area naturally lightens with sun exposure. Adding brightness around the face helps create a soft, lived-in look that blends effortlessly.
Grey blending offers the perfect middle ground between full coverage and embracing your natural colour. More and more people are choosing to showcase their greys, whether it's a touch of salt-and-pepper or a bold white hue letting go of constant upkeep in favour of authenticity and style.
Our expert colourists can also colour the lengths of your hair to match your roots, creating a uniform, harmonious finish. And to get the best results for ageing hair, we’ll recommend the right products and treatments tailored to your hair’s type and texture.
Let’s embrace the beauty of grey - on your terms.
What Hair Colour Will Work Best to Blend My Grey?
When blending grey or white hair on lighter bases like blonde, soft and luminous tones are your best friend. Champagne, ash, pearl, and icy blondes seamlessly mix with natural greys, creating a delicate, sun-kissed effect. Warm golden hues can also add depth and vibrancy without overpowering the natural silver strands. For a cooler finish, platinum and silver-blonde shades enhance the grey, giving a modern look. These tones create a smooth, dimensional blend that looks fresh, youthful, and effortlessly natural and perfect for those embracing their greys while keeping a polished blonde glow.
For darker hair, cool blonde tones like silver or platinum work well as they complement the natural shimmer of grey. These shades can help create a striking salt-and-pepper effect that feels fresh and modern.
