Everything about this service.

How much does men's hair colour cost in Chalandri, Athens, and how is it done? Men's hair colour at Ikonomakis Hair Atelier in Chalandri, Athens, starts from €35. It is discreet colour that reduces the intensity of grey hair, gives a fresher, more youthful look and grows out naturally, with no pigment residue and without "looking dyed". The appointment is short and can be done together with your haircut. Our team speaks English.

Men's colour or grey blending: what's the difference?

For men, the goal is rarely to erase every grey hair. The goal is to look rested and fresh, not "dyed". That's why at the atelier we mainly work with two approaches:

  • Grey blending for men: we soften the intensity of the greys so they blend with your natural colour. Some grey stays visible, but the overall look is warmer, more even and more youthful.
  • Fuller grey coverage: when you want the greys to show as little as possible, the formula is designed for more coverage, always in a shade that follows your natural colour rather than a flat, dark one.

Which of the two suits you is decided in the consultation, depending on how much grey you have, your natural colour and how often you want to come in.

How it looks natural and not dyed

The most common worry men have is that people will notice they've coloured their hair. That depends on three things:

  1. The right shade. A tone slightly lighter than your natural colour always looks more natural than a darker one. Too dark is what gives colour away.
  2. Discreet intensity. We don't "cover" greys with one solid colour; we soften them, so your hair keeps its natural dimension.
  3. Natural fade. The atelier's men's colour fades gradually and doesn't leave a harsh regrowth line or pigment residue on the skin. So as your hair grows, the change doesn't "shout".

The result we aim for is people telling you "you look rested", not "you've dyed your hair".

Who men's hair colour is for

Men's colour suits many different situations:

  • men with their first scattered greys at the temples who want to soften them before they spread,
  • men with salt-and-pepper hair who want a more even, fresher look without losing their character,
  • men with a short cut or fade, where grey on the sides really shows,
  • men who want to look more rested for work, an event or simply for themselves.

If you're thinking about going grey but want a smoother transition, grey blending is the most elegant middle ground. See also our grey blending in Athens.

How long men's colour lasts and how often you need it

Discreet men's colour usually fades gradually over a few weeks, depending on how often you wash your hair, sun exposure and how resistant your greys are. Because it doesn't leave a harsh line, there's no "I need to colour it tomorrow" pressure.

Most men refresh it usually every 3–6 weeks. The most practical rhythm is to combine it with your haircut: if you get your hair cut regularly, colour goes into the same appointment and the maintenance cycle takes care of itself.

Men's colour together with a haircut

Colour is done in a short appointment and pairs perfectly with a haircut. We usually colour first and cut afterwards, so we can see the final shape with the new colour and balance the temples, sides and top. With a fade, the transition from very short sides to the length on top is planned together with the intensity of the colour, so there's no contrast. See more about our men's haircut in Athens and the difference between a fade and a scissor cut (in Greek).

Beard and greys: what happens

Many men have more grey in their beard than on their head, and the contrast between coloured hair and a very grey beard can show. That's why we discuss the beard during the consultation, so the shade of your hair balances with your overall look and we decide together on the best approach for you.

Does men's hair colour damage the hair?

Discreet colour for greys, applied correctly, doesn't significantly stress short men's hair, which is refreshed often by haircuts. Before every application we check your scalp and the condition of your hair. If you have sensitive skin or have reacted to hair colour in the past, tell us during the consultation so we can take it into account. For extra shine and a clean tone in between, a hair gloss is a gentle option.

Care at home

A few simple steps help your colour stay fresh for longer:

  • wash with lukewarm water and a gentle shampoo for coloured hair,
  • protect your hair from strong sun and chlorine,
  • avoid very hot air close to the scalp.

If your greys tend to turn yellow, a shampoo for grey hair, used in moderation, keeps the tone clean.

Will it look like I've dyed my hair?

The whole point of men's colour is that it doesn't look dyed. We choose a shade close to, or slightly lighter than, your natural colour and soften the greys instead of covering them with a solid dark colour, so the result looks fresh and natural.

How long does men's hair colour last?

Discreet men's colour usually fades gradually over a few weeks, depending on how often you wash your hair, sun exposure and how resistant your greys are. Because it grows out naturally, it doesn't leave a harsh regrowth line.

How often should I colour my greys?

Most men refresh their colour usually every 3–6 weeks. The most practical rhythm is to do it with your haircut, so maintenance fits automatically into the same appointment.

Can I have colour and a haircut in the same appointment?

What about grey in my beard?

Beards often have more grey than the hair on your head, so balancing the two matters to avoid contrast. We discuss your beard during the consultation, together with the shade of your hair and your overall look.

Does men's hair colour damage the hair?
