Gents Colour Blend is a fast, low-key colour service designed to soften grey hairs so they blend into your natural colour, rather than covering them completely. It's a good fit if you're happy keeping some grey but want to reduce the contrast and freshen up your overall look, and it fits easily into a regular grooming routine at Timba in Cardiff.

## What to expect

-   A quick **consultation** to look at your grey coverage, hair condition and desired result
-   Application of a **semi- or demi-permanent colour**, focused on areas with visible grey such as the temples and hairline
-   A short **processing time**, typically around 15 minutes
-   A rinse, and finish so you can see the result before you leave

## Who it suits

-   Men with some grey who want it **softened rather than fully covered**
-   Anyone who wants a **natural, low-maintenance** result that doesn't read as obviously dyed
-   Those who prefer keeping a **salt-and-pepper look** but with less brightness and contrast
-   First-time colour clients easing into a subtle change

## Longevity and aftercare

-   Results generally last around **4 to 6 weeks** before gradually fading
-   Because the colour fades evenly, there's **no harsh regrowth line** to manage
-   Using **colour-safe, sulphate-free shampoo** and avoiding very hot water helps the colour last
-   Booking a repeat blend every 4 to 6 weeks, often alongside a haircut, keeps the look consistent

## How it compares

-   **Quicker and simpler** than full-head permanent colour, with a much shorter appointment
-   Focuses only on grey areas rather than changing your overall hair colour
-   Gives a **subtler, more natural** finish with less upkeep than full coverage
-   Our team, including Creative Director Geraint Osborne, can advise on the right shade and approach during your consultation

## Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Gents Colour Blend?

It's a quick colouring service that softens and camouflages grey hairs so they blend with your natural colour, rather than fully covering them.

How long does the appointment take?

The colour service itself takes around 15 minutes, using a fast-processing semi- or demi-permanent formula.

How much does it cost?

Gents Colour Blend at Timba costs £23.

How long does the result last?

Results typically last around 4 to 6 weeks, fading gradually with no harsh regrowth line.

Will it fully cover my grey hair?

No, it's designed to soften and reduce the contrast of greys rather than provide full coverage, keeping a natural look.

Is a patch test needed?

Many salons require a patch test 48 hours beforehand for colour services, particularly for new colour clients, so it's worth checking when you book.

How do I maintain the colour between visits?

Use a colour-safe, sulphate-free shampoo, avoid very hot water when washing, and consider a heat protectant when styling.

How does this differ from full head colour?

Gents Colour Blend is quicker, more subtle, and lower maintenance than full-head permanent colour, since it targets grey areas rather than changing your overall hair colour.

Can I combine this with a haircut?
