Did you know?
Grey hair is not actually grey. Pigmented hair and white hair with no pigment in the strands meld together to give an overall appearance of grey. This is the transitional state of our locks before they turn completely white.
Grey hair can often feel coarse, brittle, and dull. However, with the right professional hair care products at your disposal, you can nourish your silver crown and hydrate it so that it is kept soft, supple, shiny, and as healthy as possible. Allow us to share our secrets with you…!
The best tips for grey hair care:
Double cleanse
Double cleanse your hair with a sulphate-free shampoo. For this, we recommend our Vita Rejuvenating Shampoo. Inspired by autumn rains that revitalise the Tuscany countryside, this natural infusion stimulates the scalp, improving hair strength and elasticity.
Use your stimulating shampoo to wash your hair twice, concentrating on the roots, not the ends of your hair. The first cleanse will clean your scalp and the second will remove any build-up left on your strands. As you rinse, the sulphate-free formula will gently cleanse the rest of your locks.
Follow up with the Vita Rejuvenating Conditioner, a lightweight formula gentle enough for every day use yet highly moisturising for vibrant, energised locks!
*There is no risk of discolouration with Rossano Ferretti products.
The grey hair rinse
If your grey hair is flecked with many white strands, then you may experience yellowing and discoloration. This discoloration is often inevitable and is caused by pollution in the air or exposure to chlorinated and hard water. The result is brassy locks that are dull and lifeless.
To curb this problem, you can visit a salon to neutralise your greys and even out the colour. For example, applying the Splendido Purple Shampoo can counteract any yellowing, keeping your white strands white for a beautifully enhanced shiny grey look.
**Grey hair rinses can be requested at your salon.
Apply a leave-in treatment to the ends
The best products for grey hair are ones that deeply penetrate your strands to optimally hydrate them, locking in moisture for a long-lasting effect. For this, you want to get your hands on the best leave-in conditioner for grey hair, namely our award-winning luxury Leave In Hair Conditioner.
Applying a Leave In Conditioner to the lengths of your grey hair will soften and smooth strands, making hair frizz-free, healthy and shiny. Our naturally derived leave-in treatment has the advantage that it leaves absolutely no build-up or sticky residue. Instead, after just one application, your grey locks will feel silkier and more energised than before!
Think hair type
Use grey hair products that will complement your hair type and texture. Our range of anti-ageing hair care products are safe to use on all hair colours, including colour-treated hair, and do not discolour strands. This allows you to select products that will target other hair problems whilst enhancing the tones of your locks.
Tip: If you have thin and flat hair, then don’t go too heavy on the conditioner. However, if your hair is thick and naturally coarser, then choose a conditioner designed for heavier strands.
To optimally soften your hair for glossier strands, apply a luxury hair mask at least once a week. You can’t go wrong with our Vita Rejuvenating Mask. Lovingly made in Italy along with all Rossano Ferretti Parma products and infused with 98% rich naturally derived ingredients such as coconut oil, avocado, and shea butter; this product has been formulated to bring resilience, softness, and vitality back to fragile grey hair. The intense hair strengthening treatment can be used either as a pre-wash or post-wash mask, with effective results, every time.
