Which shampoos are best to use when going grey?
‘The best shampoos are those that promote shine and have a slight toning ingredient in them. Purple shampoos such as L’Oreal Professionnel Serie Expert Shine Blonde, which is made to keep blondes clean and tone out any unwanted yellow, are just perfect. They are fantastic for keeping grey hair WHITE and shiny rather than that dull, flat look. Also brilliant are moisturising shampoos such as Kerastase Bain Satin 3 with the Kerastase Oleo Relax Masque for smoothing that rebellious and wiry grey hair’. Why does grey hair dry out much quicker? ‘t isn’t so much that grey hair dries out much quicker it is the same thing that makes it grey, and that is the dying off of the pigment in the hair. The reason we go grey is due to the hair cells called melanocytes stopping the production of the required pigment, which in turn causes the grey hair. This is all a result of aging. So when we say grey hair is coarser and drier, it is merely that it has lost much of its natural lustre, bounce and shine’
