Hello: everyone, my name, is Mirza, I'm a global team member with you for international, and I'm here today to talk to you about how to cover gray hair. With light brown highlights, keeping in mind that you cannot cover gray hair unless you use permanent hair color. Using light brown highlights on gray, hair is more of a blending effect than a covering effect to really cover gray hair. You have to put on an all-over color that means roots and ends have to be covered with permanent hair color. The gray will be gone until it grows back in and that's when you'll start to see a line of demarcation. That means maintenance every three to four weeks, cuz within three to four weeks. You will see the roots come back in gray, so a great way to counter that intensity of maintenance having to go in so often is to actually add a couple different highlights and lowlights of various brown tones. So using light, brown to cover gray would actually be more like blending the gray, because you wouldn't cover 100 % of the gray hair. You would just do a heavy application of a light brown color like this model here, where you would actually just diffuse the intensity of the natural gray hair. The great thing about this is you're putting in tones like warmer tones that have left the hair and to contrast with the gray that will make it look more natural and softer the other thing too. As this grows out, it's actually going to give you a little bit more time in between services, because you won't see the line of demarcation as intensely since the gray is still naturally present in the hair. So in this case, what we did is we use a really dark tone, a level to darkest Brown and about a level, seven, eight golden blonde to kind of diffuse the gray. So you still see some of the gray, but it's completely diffused. So it looks a lot more natural. It still looks like natural tones that are in her hair, but the gray is blended in you.

Cindy Ryba: Great tutorial! I've never had it explained like this! I will show to my stylist. thank you!
mackie t: makes sense to me... I always think about it. You can't cover gray hair. What we can do is "blend" the haircolor with gray hair. thanks...this is the best tutorial so far.

Pamela Broecking: My hair is a natural 5/6. I color my hair with 8. My dark hair stays dark, my gray hair goes blonde. Makes it look like I'm getting highlights.
Handsoflightreiki: As a hairstylist my clients would hate me if I did this as it looks like a cat spotting and I get thebdiffusing but it’s not explained clearly how you did it either... did you do a root or did you just do highlights of both colors and on short hair in the back you can’t do this without it looking like a spotted cat. It’s one of the first rules of highlights.
