Transitioning to Grey Hair – The Natural Way

We’re so excited to help you embrace your natural beauty and transition to grey hair with confidence! Going grey can feel like a fresh start, and with Cooki’s range of eco-friendly, low-tox products, your hair will stay healthy, hydrated, and vibrant through every step of the journey.

Forget about harsh chemicals and complicated routines—here's how you can transition to gorgeous grey hair the natural way!

Why Go Grey?

Choosing to let your hair go grey is a powerful statement of self-confidence. It’s all about embracing your natural beauty and letting go of the endless cycle of hair dye. Plus, it’s a great way to cut out toxic chemicals and commit to a more sustainable lifestyle!

But as your natural grey comes in, you might notice some changes in texture or tone. Grey hair tends to be a little drier and coarser, so it's important to adjust your routine with products that nurture and hydrate your hair without any nasties.

1. Prepare Your Hair for the Transition

First, it’s crucial to phase out chemical dyes and treatments gradually. These can cause long-term damage, making your hair more fragile as you transition to grey. Switching to a low-tox shampoo and conditioner will cleanse your scalp gently, without harsh chemicals that irritate or strip your hair of its natural oils.

Our Argan Oil & Jasmine Shampoo Bar is perfect for this phase, deeply nourishing your scalp while leaving your hair soft and manageable. Pair it with our New Argan Oil Conditioner Bar, which locks in moisture and adds a protective layer, ensuring your strands stay hydrated and silky.

For the ultimate care during this transition, try our Argan Oil Bundle, featuring both the shampoo and conditioner. This bundle will give your hair a boost of moisture, protection, and shine, keeping it strong and healthy as you embrace your natural greys. Plus, it's a great way to simplify your routine with everything you need for nourished, low-tox hair in one easy bundle!

2. Focus on Moisture

As your hair transitions, you might notice that grey hair can feel drier or coarser. This is natural, but it means your routine may need an extra boost of hydration. A great way to nourish your hair between washes is with our Hinu Hair Growth Oil. Massage a few drops into your scalp to keep it healthy and stimulate hair growth. You can even use our Scalp Massager to really work the oil in and get the blood flowing, which is great for boosting hair health.

Don't forget your ends—grey hair can get dry, so finish off with a few drops of oil to keep them soft and healthy.

3. Toning and Maintenance

One common concern during the grey transition is yellow or brassy tones appearing in your hair. This can happen due to sun exposure, pollution, or even your water source. Using a purple shampoo is key for maintaining cool, ashy tones in grey hair, but balance it with hydrating products to avoid dryness. Our Purple Shampoo Bar is made to keep your grey hair bright while being gentle on your scalp. This will help tone down the brassiness and keep your silver locks looking radiant.

Use this bar a few times a week to neutralise brassiness and enhance your natural greys. The best part? It’s gentle, low-tox, and won’t dry out your hair like traditional purple shampoos can.

4. Trim Regularly

As your natural grey grows in, regular trims are essential for keeping your hair looking its best. Grey hair can be more prone to breakage, so keeping those ends neat will help maintain a healthy look. Trim every 6–8 weeks, and don’t forget to follow up with a nourishing treatment using Hinu Hair Growth Oil to help strengthen and hydrate your locks.

5. Style with Care

Heat styling can be rough on grey hair, so it's important to protect your strands. Try air drying or using low heat, and always apply a few drops of oil or conditioner to your ends before styling. Our Bamboo Hair Brush is the perfect tool to gently detangle without causing breakage.

For days when you do need a little heat, be sure to protect your hair by using our conditioner bars or Hinu Hair Growth Oil as a leave-in treatment to lock in moisture and prevent damage.
