Grey hair consultation: choose the goal before the technique
Managing grey hair can mean covering it, blending it or letting it grow. Start with what the person wants to see and maintain before proposing a colour journey.
Simulations are included in every plan: 5 images a month on Free, 30 on Basic, 200 on Standard and 400 on Pro. Each generated view uses one image. Previews are indicative.
Understand the person's relationship with grey
Ask which areas they want to keep and which they would prefer to soften. Use neutral language: grey is not a flaw to fix, and age alone does not determine the choice.
Separate three goals
Coverage, blending and a transition to natural grey answer different wishes. Show how the visual goal changes, without turning a reference photograph into a promise of results or a single appointment.
Review what has already been done
Ask about previous colour services and assess the actual hair. The history of the lengths can change the options. Formulas, technical tests and compatibility remain professional responsibilities, rather than conclusions drawn from a preview.
Discuss regrowth and return visits
Agree how much contrast at the roots is acceptable and which appointments the person can manage. Suggest stages that can be reviewed; avoid universal intervals or implying that blending means no maintenance.
Record the decision and next review
Note the goal, limits and agreed service. Saloria can support analysis, proposals and reports according to the plan; it does not certify the percentage of grey hair or replace a colourist's assessment.
How to get started
- Define the visual goal with the person.

Frequently asked questions
Does grey blending mean complete coverage?
No. Blending and coverage are different goals and need to be clarified before choosing the service.
Can a transition be completed in one appointment?
That cannot be promised in advance. Technical assessment, colour history and the goal determine the journey.
Does a simulation specify the formula to use?
No. It is an illustrative visual reference; product choice and the technical protocol require professional assessment.
