Greys, your call.
Cover them, blend them, or wear them well — grey hair is a choice, not a problem, and each option has a different maintenance contract. Full coverage looks seamless but commits you to root touch-ups every 4–6 weeks; blended highlights soften the regrowth line and stretch visits to 8–12 weeks; embracing grey still benefits from toning to keep it silver rather than yellow. We price all three off the published menu and patch-test before any colour.
- Root touch-up from ₹1,800 — the 4–6 week full-coverage routine.
- Global colour from ₹1,600 (women's lengths from ₹5,499).
- Grey-blending highlights from ₹4,999 — softer regrowth, longer gaps between visits.
- L'Oréal and Schwarzkopf colour systems with a mandatory patch test 48 hours before first colour.
- Honest maintenance math before you commit — coverage is a routine, not a one-off.
The North Bangalore factors.
It's mostly genetics
When you grey is written in your genes; stress and deficiencies can accelerate shedding around it, but no salon service reverses grey. Anyone selling 'grey reversal' is selling pigment or plucking.
Yellowing, not just greying
Hard water, sun and product buildup turn silver hair brassy-yellow. Purple toning and clarifying keep deliberate grey looking sharp — often the better fix than coverage.
The regrowth line
Solid dark coverage shows a hard silver line within weeks. If that line bothers you more than the grey did, blending — not more colour — is the answer.
The salon-side fixes, priced.
Root touch-up
Regrowth-only colour matched to your existing shade — the standard 4–6 week coverage routine.
Global colour
Full single-shade coverage, ammonia and ammonia-free options discussed at consult.
Grey-blending highlights
Woven highlights that break up the regrowth line — visits stretch to 8–12 weeks.

Home habits that hold the result.
- Colour-protect shampoo on borewell water, or your 6-week colour fades in 3.
- Purple shampoo weekly if you wear silver — it tones the borewell yellow out.
- Book the patch test 48 hours ahead of a first colour appointment; it's mandatory, not optional.
- Photograph your colour in daylight after each visit — matching future touch-ups gets easier.
- Heat-protect before styling; heat fades pigment faster than washing does.
Grey coverage is a subscription, not a purchase — before you start, we'll walk you through what your chosen option costs per year at menu prices so the routine never surprises you. And if silver suits you, we'll say that too.
Answers, straight from the chair.
How often will I need root touch-ups?+
Every 4–6 weeks for full coverage, depending on how fast your hair grows and how sharp the contrast is. Touch-ups start at ₹1,800 on the published menu.
What's the lowest-maintenance way to deal with grey?+
Blended highlights (from ₹4,999) — they scatter the grey through deliberate lighter strands so regrowth has no hard line, stretching visits to 8–12 weeks.
Is salon colour safe for grey coverage every month?+
Regrowth-only touch-ups colour new hair each time, not the same strand repeatedly, which is what keeps monthly coverage sustainable. We patch-test before your first colour and re-test if you switch systems.
Can you colour-match my previous salon's shade?+
Usually, yes — bring a daylight photo of the colour you liked. Matching is easiest within the first 2–3 weeks of regrowth, so don't wait for a full inch of roots.
