Dyeing grey hair requires a different approach than dyeing other hair colours. This is due to the specific structure of grey hair, which is different from pigmented hair. The hair pros at Keune answer frequently asked questions on this topic. What exactly does grey coverage mean, and which colours are suitable for dyeing grey hair? They also provide advice on the best techniques and products for optimal results when colouring grey hair.

Can you dye grey hair?

Yes, grey hair can be dyed, but the best approach varies from person to person. Not everyone with grey hair has the same hair structure. Also, not everyone has the same amount of grey hair. Therefore, grey hair requires a personalised dye treatment.

For the best hair advice, go to a Keune salon near you. 

Why is my hair turning grey?

Hair cells produce pigment. Pigment gives the hair a brown or blonde colour, for example: your natural hair colour. Grey hairs occur when these hair cells, which provide the pigment, are no longer produced. Grey hair is therefore hair without pigment.

The production of hair pigment decreases as we get older. We discover the first grey hairs when we are on average between 30 and 35 years old. But it can also happen that you discover a few grey hairs at a young age. Getting grey hair is a natural process that occurs in both men and women.

The correct grey coverage

Grey coverage is the extent to which the hair dye conceals the grey hairs. With 100% grey coverage dye, your grey hair is completely invisible after a dye treatment. Not everyone has the same amount of grey hair and the hair structure also varies from person to person, so full grey coverage is not always necessary.

Low grey volume

If you have few grey hairs (low grey volume), a dye treatment with partial grey coverage is often sufficient to disguise the grey hairs. The Keune Semi Color line is hair dye with partial grey coverage (up to 70%). Keune Semi Color is demi-permanent with a lasting colour result (up to 24 washes).

High grey volume

Keune Tinta Color is suitable for hair with a high grey volume. This is a permanent hair dye with 100% grey coverage. 

Dyeing grey hair brown or blonde

With a dark hair colour, grey locks can easily be concealed. If you go for a blonde hair colour, it may be necessary to bleach the hair first. But this is not always the case. For example, the Keune 1000 series contains a number of colours that lighten the hair up to 4 shades and cover up to 90%, without the need for bleaching.

How often do I dye grey hair?

How often you need to dye grey hair depends on your hair length and hair growth. On average, grey regrowth becomes visible between 4 and 6 weeks after dyeing. After a first dye job, keep track of when you notice regrowth yourself. Determine how often you want to dye your hair based on this. 

Are you unsure about this? Then ask your hairdresser for advice. 

The best care for dyed hair

After a dye treatment in the salon, you naturally want to keep your dyed hair radiant. Therefore, it is important to maintain your hair well with the right hair care.

Light grey coverage is best cared for with Keune Silver Savior and Keune Blonde Savior. This neutralises any yellow pigment. The products from the Blonde Savior line are perfect in combination with the Silver Savior line. Wash your hair for example twice a week and use the products alternately. 

The Silver Savior line contains a shampoo, conditioner and a foam treatment. The Blonde Savior line consists of a shampoo, mask and leave-in treatment.

Have you dyed your hair dark blonde or brown? In that case, products from the Keune Color Brillianz line are suitable. These products protect and preserve the colour of your hair. Keune Color Brillianz is enriched with silk proteins that make the hair shine beautifully. The result is radiant hair that feels wonderfully soft with a colour that does not fade. 

The Color Brillianz line consists of a shampoo, conditioner, a mask and a conditioning spray.

Dyeing grey hair in a salon

Hair dyeing is a craft that requires precision and expertise. Specific knowledge and skill are needed to achieve a beautiful and even result when dyeing grey hair. Grey hair often has a different texture and can be more resistant than pigmented hair, making it more difficult to absorb the colour evenly. 

It is important to use the right products and techniques, such as a suitable pre-treatment and the correct exposure time, to ensure that the colour covers well and looks natural. Moreover, the health of the hair and scalp must be taken into account to prevent damage and guarantee a long-lasting beautiful result. 

Professional hairdressers are trained to tackle these challenges and treat the hair in a way that is both effective and safe. The hair pros ensure that the colour is neatly applied so that it is not applied over the previous colour. This prevents so-called 'stacking' in the hair and achieves the most beautiful result. 

Therefore, find a Keune salon near you. The Keune professionals are trained to apply the best colour techniques.
