Grey Blending & Colour
Subtle grey blending and colour to soften the grey and take a few years off — naturally.
Grey blending is about subtlety — taking the edge off the grey so you look fresh and sharp, never dyed or unnatural. Using fast, low-commitment men’s colour, we knock back the grey at the temples and through the beard by a few shades so it blends naturally with your own colour. It takes around twenty minutes, washes in gradually over a few weeks, and is the quickest way to look a little younger and a lot more put-together without anyone quite knowing why.

Grey Blending — your questions answered
Straight answers to the questions we hear most. Still unsure? Give us a call — we are happy to help.
Will grey blending look obvious or unnatural?
No — that is the whole point. We use a fast men’s colour to soften the grey by just a few shades so it blends with your natural colour rather than masking it. The result looks fresh and natural, not dyed, and it fades in gradually over a few weeks so there is never a harsh line as it grows.
Do you take walk-ins, or do I need to book?
Both. Walk-ins are always welcome and we keep chairs free for them every day — but Saturdays and late afternoons get busy, so we recommend booking online to guarantee your slot and skip the wait. If you have a barber you prefer, booking is the surest way to get them.
How do I book an appointment?
The quickest way is to book online through our booking system — pick your service, your barber and a time that suits you, and you are set. You can also call the shop or message us, and of course you are always welcome to simply walk in.
Can I pay by card?
Yes. We take all major debit and credit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay, as well as cash. There is no minimum spend and no card surcharge.
