Gray Shatush: who is good for it and how to do it?
Shatush is one of the trends most loved by very young people, always on the hunt for original styles and novelties and chronically in love with eccentric colors and shades. Despite the cliché according to which gray hair is a bit dated and "vintage", this gray shatush color is among the most requested by teenagers and under 50s to create fairy effects or give a touch of color with simple gray tips.
For many years now, this has been the most requested coloring technique by clients of women's salons because the result is a shaded effect so natural that it is easily confused with the natural shade caused by sun and salt. Like it shatush blonde or light brown, the gray one also recreates this shaded effect that runs along the length of the hair until it becomes very light at the tips. The end result is a hair color very elegant and delicate.
The new trend is becoming popular among stars and on social networks. Curious to know more? Take a look on Instagram and Pinterest at the hashtags #greyhair and #grannyhair and let yourself be enchanted by this fairytale color.
Who is silver shatush good for?
The gray shatush, also known as "Granny Hair", does not suit everyone and the variations and shades are truly many: ranging from lead gray to silver, up to white or platinum, sometimes tending towards blond or to violet.
Depending on the shade, shatush gray is more suitable for light skin tones or dark skin tones. For those with dark complexions, the best hairdressers recommend a lead colour, while for those with light complexions a shade tending towards white, silver or platinum is highly recommended to recreate an ethereal and fairy-tale effect. Furthermore, the silver shatush, like the blond and auburn ones, can be made from any shade.
Shatush gray on black hair
The gray shatush on black or brown hair is among the most requested and is achieved by bleaching the tips and length by many tones, and then dyeing the bleached area with the chosen shade of dye.
Shatush gray on blonde hair
Gray shatush on blonde hair is the easiest to achieve because there is no need to bleach. Simply apply the chosen shade to already light ends and length.
Shatush gray on brown hair
Gray shatush on light brown hair requires less bleaching than that on dark brown hair. Discoloration begins after backcombing the area affected by the dye, thus exposing the ends and length to possible damage and stress.
