Fantasy · Level 9

Mint Gray Coverage, Honestly Rated.

Mint offers minimal gray coverage. Minimal gray coverage — a fashion shade, not a gray solution. Pair it with a base color if coverage matters.

Treat this as fashion, not camouflage: wear it over a full-coverage base, or accept visible regrowth as part of the look.

Mint Gray Coverage, Honestly Rated — FAQs.

Does Mint cover gray hair?

+

Minimal — a fashion shade, not a gray solution. Pair it over a full-coverage base if coverage matters.

Does Mint need bleach?

+

Yes — reaching level 9 usually requires pre-lightening, particularly from darker bases. Book a bond-builder with the appointment and expect a longer first session.

How often must Mint be refreshed on gray regrowth?

+

High upkeep: toning refreshes every 2–4 weeks plus cold-water washes and heat protectant every time.

Compare with similar shades.
