Grey Blending in Brooklyn
Less time covering your roots. More time loving your color.
Noticing a little more grey coming through? You don't have to choose between covering it completely and letting it all grow out.
At Gem House Salon in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, we create customized grey blending color that works with your natural hair, softens regrowth, and brings beautiful dimension to your color.
Whether you're looking to stretch the time between appointments, embrace some of your natural silver, or simply find a new approach to your color, we'll help you figure out what feels right.
A Softer Way to Grow Out Your Grey
If you've been coloring your hair for years, you know how quickly that line of regrowth can start to show.
Grey blending offers a different approach.
By working with your natural grey rather than covering every strand, we can create a softer transition between your existing color and new growth.
Depending on your hair, that might mean delicate highlights, lowlights, a root shadow, or a customized combination of techniques.
The goal isn't necessarily to make you completely grey. It's to create beautiful color that feels more natural as it grows.
And for many guests, that means a little more flexibility between salon visits.

Strategically placed highlights help soften the contrast between natural grey and your existing hair color. A beautiful option for adding brightness and dimension while making regrowth less noticeable.
Grey Blending Highlights
You don't have to become blonde to blend your greys. We can work with rich brunette tones, subtle highlights, and lowlights to create a softer, more dimensional finish.
Grey Blending for Brunettes
Grey Blending with Demi-Permanent Color
A softer approach to grey coverage without the commitment of permanent color. Demi-permanent color gently blends natural silvers into your existing shade, adding richness and shine while giving those silver strands a beautiful sparkle, almost like natural highlights.
Ready to embrace more of your natural silver? We'll help create a personalized transition plan that works with your current color, hair condition, and long-term goals. This may take multiple appointments.
Transitioning to Natural Grey
Your Grey. Your Way.
There's no one-size-fits-all approach to grey blending.
Some guests want to keep their brunette color with a few softer pieces around the face. Others want to gradually become lighter, allowing more of their natural silver to shine through.
Our colorists look at your natural grey pattern, existing color, hair condition, and the amount of maintenance you're comfortable with.
Using professional Davines hair color and customized highlighting techniques, we'll create a plan that works for your hair today and where you'd like it to go.
Beautiful color should fit your life, not the other way around.
