To warm up white hair and combat ashiness, you can add warmth through glosses, toners, or color-correcting treatments.
Many people with white or gray hair find that it can sometimes look ashy or dull. Adding warmth can revitalize the hair and give it a more vibrant, youthful appearance. Here are some options to consider:
Professional Salon Treatments
- Glosses: A gloss is a semi-permanent color treatment that adds shine and subtle color. Your stylist can choose a gloss with warm undertones like gold or honey to counteract ashiness.
- Toners: Similar to glosses, toners can neutralize unwanted tones and introduce warmth. Consult with your stylist to determine the best toner shade for your desired result.
At-Home Color Correcting
- Color Refreshing Treatments: There are at-home products specifically designed to add temporary color and warmth to the hair. For example, a rose gold or golden blonde color refreshing crème can add warmth and combat dullness.
- Example: Better Natured Color Refreshing Crème in Rose Gold.
Tips for Choosing a Warmth Solution
- Consider Your Skin Tone: The warmth you add to your hair should complement your skin tone. If you have cool undertones, warmer shades like gold or copper might look best. If you have warm undertones, honey or caramel tones could be a better choice.
- Start Subtle: When adding warmth at home, start with a subtle color-correcting treatment. You can always add more warmth later if needed.
- Read Reviews: Before trying any at-home color product, read reviews to see what other people with white or gray hair have experienced.
