The fact is, though, gray isn&#8217;t contagious; and plucking a single strand shouldn&#8217;t affect any hairs nearby. All that said, plucking can damage the follicle preventing new hair from growing back. My best advice is to not touch it. You need that gray to grow length so it sits FLAT on the hair; otherwise, it will always be this short, annoying strand that is useless! Let it be colored properly in the salon and you won\u2019t see it nearly as much when it grows in.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1671482464697{margin-top: 70px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;MYTH #2: Gray hair is stubborn, so it takes hours to cover it&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:p|font_size:20px|text_align:center|line_height:1&#8243; text_transform=&#8221;cesis_text_transform_uppercase&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1672376122379{margin-bottom: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1672859750011{margin-top: 30px !important;}&#8221;]<strong>False! says Olivia\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\n\u201cWhen my client hasn\u2019t been in the salon in forever and really wants to have her gray touched up, I can get her in and out in a flash,\u201d explains Olivia, who turns to our express-service innovation, Lumi10 Permanent Cr\u00e8me Color. \u201cIt delivers 100% gray coverage and up to 2x the shine in just 10 minutes.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1663685614484{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;27103&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1671482464697{margin-top: 70px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;MYTH #3: Gray hair is the same texture as my other hair&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:p|font_size:20px|text_align:center|line_height:1&#8243; text_transform=&#8221;cesis_text_transform_uppercase&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1672376209529{margin-bottom: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1672859756461{margin-top: 30px !important;}&#8221;]<strong>False! says Olivia\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\n\u201cIf you have any gray hair and notice that your hair\u2019s become frizzier, drier, and more wiry this season, that\u2019s because it probably has. There\u2019s less pigment (melanin) in gray hair; so as the strand loses its color, it becomes significantly coarser. Believe it or not, hair color, like Lumi10, helps soften wiry hair; as do the YouthLock conditioners, which are enhanced with collagen.\u201d (See below for more deets.)[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1671482464697{margin-top: 70px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;MYTH #4: Gray is spelled grey.&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:p|font_size:20px|text_align:center|line_height:1&#8243; text_transform=&#8221;cesis_text_transform_uppercase&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1672376293913{margin-bottom: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1672859762894{margin-top: 30px !important;}&#8221;]<strong>Yes and no, says Olivia\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\n\u201cThe Merriam-Webster website states, \u201cGray and grey are both common spellings of the color between black and white. Gray is more frequent in American English, whereas grey is more common in British English.\u201d But it\u2019s not about how you spell it \u2013 it\u2019s about how you take care of it! I highly recommend the YouthLock collection for all your gray- covering needs.
