It didn’t present itself to me as a solution naturally, it took me a while to find it. It took me a while to give up single-process coloring, a solution that worked as part of my adult life for a long time. It took me a while to grow out most of the remaining color. Getting the hair stripped of all color was a marathon of sitting in a salon chair. Not really my bag. Learning through ChatGPT, it seems that the gray blending option developed as a hair coloring technique over ...
