SILVER HAIR COLOR IDEAS

SOFTLY, SOFTLY

This silver shade is so pale and pure, it looks like silk. Up the softness further by recommending INVIGO Cool Blonde Color Refreshing Conditioner as a once-a-week treat. The pigment-depositing treatment will keep the color clear and bright, while a blend of hard-working hydrators ensures the hair remains in tip-top condition.

PLATINUM PLAIT

Light, multi-tonal locks are the ideal canvas for all manner of twists and braids. Just look at this half-up, half-down ‘do for solid silver proof. Create the plait on straight hair that’s been spritzed with EIMI Dry Me for grip, then add a little EIMI Glam Mist to gloss up the final look.

VIOLET VOLUME BOOST

Using Color Fresh CREATE in Pure Violet, add bands of ultra violet through silver strands. This will give the look extra dimension and make the hair appear thicker. A deeper shade of metallic grey is a must to make the blend between purple hues seamless, so tone hair with Color Touch 7/89 before adding the CFC shade.

SHINE ON

For a silver that’s as shiny as can be, style hair super-straight and sleek. You can create the look by misting mid-lengths with EIMI Shimmer Delight, then gliding Wella Style Hair Iron Straighteners from root to tip. Easy.

SILVER BALAYAGE

Team the dark roots trend with a silver balayage to achieve this gradient effect. We spy some subtle hints of lilac through the tips, which can be added using a matte gloss, such as Instamatic by Color Touch in the shade Muted Mauve.
