What does “brassy” even mean? And why can’t going gray meanWritten byIf you’re a person of a certain age — 30ish or 40ish, or, if you’re especially ahead of the game, in your20s — you’ve likely noticed a few wily white hairs corkscrewing skyward from your part, or frosting the area above your ear, or steadily amassing into a streak at your temple. If you’ve proceeded further than that to, say, a full-on silver fox explosion, you may have tried a shampoo or two designed especially for gray hair.
Recently, I found myself wondering why. So, I decided to do a bit of digging, which only increased the gray-haired questions. If you, too, have been wondering about this stuff, join me.Gray hair can sometimes take on a rusty hue — or, in the parlance of the hair world, it can “turn brassy.” Why does this happen? The biggest reason is the sun, the UV rays of which have a tendency to strip the bluer tones in gray hair, heightening the orange ones.
