How to Add Gray to Your Hair at a Salon

• 1). Speak with a stylist about the type of gray you want added to your hair. There are numerous shades of gray.
  
  
• 2). Decide whether you want highlights or an all-over dye job. Discuss this with the stylist.
  
  
• 3). Make sure the stylist bleaches your hair before applying the gray dye, especially if your hair is dark. For the dye to take and color your hair properly, your hair will need to be lightened several shades, depending on how dark it is.
  
  

How to Use Spray-on Dyes

• 1). Use a non-toxic spray-on dye. Choose a gray that will stand out against the natural color of your hair.
  
  
• 2). Use the spray-on dye in a bathroom or garage to prevent getting the dye on walls and carpets.
  
  
• 3). Depress the aerosol button and aim the dye at your hair, beginning at the part or a spot on your scalp and completely covering a section of your hair to the ends.
  
  
• 4). Bend over to expose the underside of your hair. Cover all of your hair using this spray on dye, or use it to make gray highlights.
