Men, just like women, have the right to feel uncomfortable with gray hair. Age doesn't leave anyone unscathed, but it doesn't have to be accepted unconditionally. If the first gray or white hair appears, it is possible to use a tint or a permanent hair color. It is important that the hair color is suitable for covering gray hair. That's what it says on the packaging. A hairdresser usually automatically knows what to do to make all the gray hairs disappear. While you're at the salon, you might as well treat yourself to a new haircut.
DYE NATURALLY OR EXPERIMENTALLY?
It doesn't always have to be a natural color like black, brown or blonde; bright colors and highlights also look great on men. There are also many different shades, especially for blonde and brown. It is also possible to dye your hair completely gray if you prefer a uniform look.
If you want to bleach your hair, be aware that this can damage the hair. You should really leave bleaching to a professional, as unwanted side effects can quickly occur, such as a yellow tinge or hair breakage. If necessary, you can get rid of a yellow tint with silver shampoo. This also works with gray-colored hair, as yellow tones can also occur here.
Also be aware that black, for example, cannot be easily colored over, but has to be grown out. This is possible with short or medium-length hair, but with long hair it becomes a very tedious process.
DYE HAIR GENTLY
If you want to try out a hair color on yourself first but don't want to keep it for too long, you can tint your hair instead of dyeing it. A tint only lasts a few weeks at most and gradually washes out. In contrast to a real hair dye, a hair dye is also gentler on the hair.
THE RIGHT CARE FOR MEN’S HAIR
There are special shampoos for colored hair, for example the Color Cocktail range. The colors retain their luminosity significantly longer. The Shades of Blonde is the ideal series for bleached hair that is often particularly damaged. Monsieur Star is specially developed for men and can be used as a shampoo and shower. In principle, you should “listen” to your hair: if it is dry and brittle, give it moisture. If your scalp is irritated or your roots are oily or flaky, choose a product that addresses these problems.
