The fact that there are trends and they’re often fun to try doesn’t necessarily mean they suit all skin types so it really depends how subtle or bold you want to be with your colour. Colour combinations that work well together are colour families for example; warm tones Honey Blonde, Coffee and Caramel work well together or cool shades such as Deep Burgundies and Vibrant Reds can be combined together.”

In compliance with the growing trend of colouring hair in grey, a skilled barber of Truefitt & Hill, Jaykishan Pawar states, “Shades which come in the colour spectrum of silver, including brown-grey, silver ash blonde, ask grey, and steel grey. are emerging with time in India. These colours are more towards the natural side. Creative colours are difficult to maintain but the best thing about these shades is that as the toner begins to fade, a person will still be left with a clean shade.” In addition, expert Samantha Kochhar encourages men to accept and love their grey hair instead of trying to ward it off.

Besides colouring your hair, it’s necessary to protect them in the right way. As per the professionals, for your colour to last longer and not fade, it is important to maintain the vibrancy by using a shampoo and conditioner combination.
