We have an amzing service called a shear shine, this grabs onto your grey hair and protects your color from fading! Not only does it make you're hair color last longer but it also gives your hair a beautiful shine and silky texture.

You can change your part, get a haircut in between hair coloring appointments or you could use a mascara wand daily with the right color to get you by.

I find that not washing hair as often in between coloring services may help and there are color sticks that are available at your local beauty supply store.

Bumble and Bumble colored hair powder!! Just spray on the roots and the greys are gone ;)

My client they use temporary suckers stick to when they go out of the house, sometimes you can use the sachet coloring, for a moment, that this depends on what color you have in your hair.

It all depends on how much grey you have. it can be as easy as styling you hair different, or using hair wond or hair powder.

There are a couple of things that you could do if you want to blend the gray roots to the ends of your hair you could try a temporary rinse closes to the color that you are using on the hair. It is only temporary though so if you perspire or get the hair wet it can drip out of the hair. The other suggestion that I would have is have your hairdresser do a partial root touch up in between your regular touch up. I offer this to my clients that have to come in before three weeks or sooner . I charge a reduce rate for that service.The last thing I would suggest is buying an over the counter hair color as close to yours and doing it yourself. just the top area and part line. good luck!

you have a few options, bumble and bumble makes dry shampoo that is colored. or there is a product that is made exactly for that, it basically looks like a tube of mascara but they have a lot of different color options, or you could just use mascara :)

Try hair mascara, its a great quick fix if not there are always other ways of styling your hair that hide the greys!

Creative parting! Never make a straight line and don't make your hair flat. Volume diffuses what the eye actually sees. If you're referring to greys in the temple area (sideburns) there are "crayons" you can rub on the greys to get you through until your next salon visit.

My clients love when I use a semi-permanent glaze in a color very close to the original base color it extends the time between permanent colors and it's not so harsh on the hair. If you are short on time and need a fix right now bangs work wonderfully.

You can try using hair mascara it is a great quick fix, and some times just styling the hair differently can help!

Hi kam17.
There isnt really anything you can do to cover your natural root imbetween colouring appointments, I wouldnt recommend colouring it yourself with a box colour if you're thinkin that because you might come out with a colour that doesnt match your ends and plus covering grey isnt as easy as normal virgin hair! a colour could come out brighter than you expected!
The only thing i can suggest is washing it and blowdrying it more often to get that fresh blow-dried look because left to go flat or greasy shows your root more!
Haylo.
