But isn’t silver toner hair dye ? While silver toner shampoo contains colour pigments, it does not permanently dye the hair. Silver hair toner is a popular option when it comes to showcasing your grey. Instead, a blue pigment is used to neutralise yellow undertones. Gradually, your hair stylist can reduce the colour pigment at each application, smoothly easing you into an all-grey look thanks to a silver toner for hair. How does a silver hair toner shampoo work? If you have a full head of blonde hair, apply the silver shampoo evenly. You may find more yellow or brassy tones at the roots of your hair; if this is the case, apply the shampoo to your roots first and leave on for three to five minutes before applying to the rest of your hair. For blonde and silver shades, stylists usually use a bleaching product to lighten the hair, followed by a toner. The bleach lifts the colour up to the desired level, while the toner gives it – literally – the tones you want. But this toner can wear off after over-washing/styling, or if not correctly applied, revealing the warmer nuances of the lifted hair beneath.

Over the years, our hair gradually turns grey due to a loss of pigment caused by our genes. The melanin-producing cells eventually stop, and when this happens the next hair to grow out of the follicle is white or grey. Once a certain follicle produces a white hair, it will never again produce a coloured hair because it no longer has the necessary colour-producing cells.
