Getting silver hair is easy with Color By You’s wash-in, wash-out color gels. All you need is one tube of hair makeup for the ultimate metallic mane.

The easiest way to apply silver hair color is working section by section. Start by clipping up the top half of hair so you can turn the lower layers a shimmering silver hue.

STEP 2

APPLY COLOR GEL

Reach for your tube of Silver Bullet, then pull a section of hair taut, and squeeze the gel from root to tip in a zig-zag motion. Blend with fingertips.

STEP 3

SEAL WITH HEAT

Get that silver hair look on lockdown by using a hairdryer to set the color, pointing the nozzle down the hair shaft to ensure the cuticle lies flat for mirror-like shine.

STEP 4

LAYER UP

Repeat the sweep-and-set process through all sections of hair that you want to turn silver. For a bolder look, you can even layer up the color to make it pop.

STEP 5

STYLE AND GLOW

Style your hair in a braided ponytail, then squeeze a little more Silver Bullet on your fingertip, blend through the plait, and lightly blow out to complete your look. Silver hair, sorted.
