Grey hair appears at different ages for everyone. Some people notice it early, others much later in life. Most people choose to dye their hair when greys appear. But did you know there are also other ways to cover grey hair without dye? In this article, you will learn how to make grey strands less visible in a natural way. The alternatives to colouring may surprise you.
Can you fully reverse grey hair?
Before looking at the alternatives to hair dye, it is important to make a clear note. Scientists have studied for many years how hair loses its colour and whether this process can be influenced. At the moment, there are no treatments that can fully reverse grey hair. However, researchers see that natural factors such as healthy nutrition and avoiding stress can help slow down the process.
How to cover grey hair without dye: what works?
To slow down or cover grey hairs, Neofollics has developed a product line that supports the hair without colouring it. The Neofollics Anti Grey line is designed for everyone who wants to reduce grey hair without using dye. The products can be used together as one routine or separately. The line includes three products that work well on their own, but even better when combined:
Neofollics Anti Grey Shampoo
The Neofollics Anti Grey Shampoo visibly reduces grey hairs by gradually covering them. After about 7 to 10 washes, the hair develops a naturally deeper shade and looks more vibrant, without the effect of hair dye. Do not use this shampoo together with other shampoos. Its mild formula also cares for the scalp and helps keep it healthy, so switching to another shampoo is not needed. This shampoo is specially developed for people with dark hair.
Neofollics Anti Grey Serum
The Neofollics Anti Grey Hair Serum helps slow down early greying by stimulating the natural production of pigment in the hair. The antioxidants nourish and protect your hair, while the scalp stays hydrated. It is suitable for both men and women with light or dark hair.
Neofollics Anti Grey Tablets
The Neofollics Anti Grey Hair Tablets support the hair from within to help slow down early greying. While the shampoo covers grey hair on the outside and the serum is applied directly to the scalp, the tablets work through a two-step formula with Melanin Complex and Catalase to maintain the natural hair colour. This makes them a strong addition to the other products and helps the hair look healthier and more vibrant. The tablets are also effective without using the shampoo or serum.
What can you realistically expect?
Any care routine requires patience and consistency. On average, hair grows about one centimetre per month. This means that visible changes usually appear only after several months (around six months) of consistent use of Neofollics products. The Serum and Tablets from the Anti Grey line are designed for long-term support of hair condition. For those who want to cover grey hair without dye more quickly, the Anti Grey Shampoo is the best option. After about 10 washes, most people already notice results. Important to know: the Anti Grey Shampoo is developed for people with dark hair.
Why does hair turn grey?
The colour of your hair is determined by melanin, a pigment made in the hair root. As you get older, the pigment cells produce less melanin. As a result, the hair loses its colour and turns grey or white.
Age, however, is not the only cause. Genetics, stress, nutrition and lifestyle also play a role. Although greying is a natural process, you can limit the influence of these factors. A healthy lifestyle and balanced nutrition may help support the natural colour of your hair.

By combining these products with a healthy lifestyle, it is possible to make grey hair less visible in a natural way. It takes time and consistency, but often gives a more natural and longer-lasting result than traditional dyeing.
