Pantone's historic selection of Cloud Dancer as the 2026 Colour of the Year was a big surprise to many, but at Murphy Gozzard, the best salon Paddington offers for transformative colour work, we see Cloud Dancer as more than a trend. It's a celebration of what we've always known: pale hair, silver tones, and natural grey can be absolutely stunning.
THE ELEGANCE OF PALE HAIR
Cloud Dancer embodies serenity, sophistication, and timeless beauty and whether you're naturally greying, transitioning away from years of colour, or simply drawn to luminous silver and white tones, this is your moment to embrace these ethereal shades with confidence.
At our Paddington hair colour salon, we've guided countless clients through their pale hair journey using La Biosthetique colour systems. This premium French brand offers exceptional grey coverage, gentle formulations for sensitive scalps, and specialised products that keep white and silver hair looking brilliant rather than brassy or yellow.
HOW CAN I TRANSITION TO GREY HAIR?
Many clients come to us feeling uncertain about their grey hair. Perhaps they're tired of constant root touch-ups, or they've glimpsed their natural silver coming through and are ready for it to look intentionally beautiful rather than neglected. We are here to make it look amazing!
During your hair consultation at Murphy Gozzard, we assess your current colour, the amount and pattern of your grey, your lifestyle, and your vision for the outcome. Grey transitions aren't one-size-fits-all. Some clients prefer a gradual blend using highlights and lowlights, others embrace a shorter cut to speed the process, while some opt for strategic colour adjustments that honour their natural silver as it emerges.
OUR APPROACH: La Biosthetique Excellence
We exclusively use La Biosthetique colour systems because they deliver results that genuinely enhance hair health. Their demi-permanent colours with anti-yellow properties are specifically formulated for naturally greying hair, with targeted treatments that neutralise brassiness and enhance cool, silvery tones.
La Biosthetique's Molecular Mechanism Complex protects hair during colour treatments, strengthening structure rather than compromising it. For transitioning grey hair, which can sometimes feel coarser or drier, this protective approach makes all the difference between hair that looks damaged and hair that looks luminous.
WHY CHOOSE MURPHY GOZZARD?
As Paddington's best salon for colour transformation, we bring decades of expertise to every hair consultation. Our colourists understand the science of lifting, toning, and maintaining pale hair while prioritising integrity and shine.
Whether you're considering embracing your natural silver, transitioning from years of colour, or simply exploring what Cloud Dancer-inspired hair might look like on you, we're here to guide you through every step.
