Grey-Blend Hair (10–70% Grey) in Melbourne

Would we recommend it here?

Yes — this is a sound choice for Melbourne.

Grey hair is coarser and more porous than pigmented hair, so a blended unit weathers slightly differently - greys pick up yellowing from sun, pollution and hard water faster than the dark strands beside them. Coastal salt air accelerates this in one city; unusually hard tap water does it a different way in another. Either way the fix is the same and it is routine.

Most people who come to us from Melbourne looking for grey hair patch have already tried a ready-made piece that did not sit right. Salt-and-pepper blends knotted to a specified grey percentage, so you are not forced into dyeing your own hair to match a black patch.

You see the base, the hair and the attachment method before anything is bonded to your scalp.

Lifespan: Matches the base lifespan
Service interval: Every four to eight weeks
Best for: Clients over 40 who want to keep their natural greying pattern.

Caring for a grey-blend hair (10–70% grey) in Melbourne

Winters here are cool, damp and low on UV, which is kind to colour but slows drying time on wash days, and summers can deliver genuine heatwave days in the mid-to-high 30s that dry out both scalp skin and base material fast. We build the aftercare plan around that swing rather than a single seasonal assumption, because in Melbourne the average temperature tells you almost nothing about what a system actually goes through in a given week.

Use a purple or silver toning shampoo once a fortnight to hold the greys neutral.
Re-check your grey percentage at every reorder - your own hair keeps moving and the unit does not.
Filter or bottle-rinse if your building water is very hard; mineral deposit dulls grey first.
Keep greys out of chlorinated pool water, which turns them green faster than pigmented hair.
