The service

What it is

Gray blending uses highlights and lowlights to soften the contrast between gray and the rest of your hair, so the gray reads as dimension rather than as regrowth.

It can be booked on its own, or within a partial highlight or a Depth and Darken service. Erin Green, one of the salon's stylists, is known for gray blending.
