How to Transition to Grey Hair: Products
Sheer Gloss – Add shine & smoothness until you can get back into the salon. A sheer gloss will help the hair shaft stay sealed, so overall hair texture will be improved.
Moisturizing Shampoo & Conditioners – Professional grade moisturizing shampoo & conditioners will keep the hair hydrated & aid it in moisture absorption. Consider trying a violet based product to help neutralize & tone out any yellow or brassy tones that your natural color may have while brightening. Loma Hair Care is sulfate, gluten, soy, & paraben free & scented with vanilla bean & blood orange!
Deep Conditioning Treatments & Masks – Hydrated locks stay smooth, right on down to the ends. Take time to take care of your overall hair health. Crimson Hair Studio carries all types of hair masks for whatever your overall needs are! Read more about the Crimson team’s favorite hair masks!

Use daily to fight the fight against dry, damaged, brittle hair and to provide protection against environmental stressors, and heat damage.”
