grey like you've never seen before

the first range of multi-gradient grey hair extensions that caters to people from across the texture spectrum.

There’s no question that the very presence of grey hair commands attention. We believe it’s about time it’s given the attention it so naturally demands. Grey hair is daring, diverse and delicate all at the same time, and we’ve created this range with exactly that in mind.

Four of our cult favourite textures

The first generation of GreyScale is available in 4 of our cult favourite textures, catering to different hair types across the spectrum - Body Wave, Press’d, Spring Fling, and Four Ayye

Salt, Steel & Smoke Gradients

Grey may be a singular word, but it’s not a singular colour - and that’s why we made this range multi-gradient. Each product comes in a light coloured ‘salt’ gradient - with 90% grey hair, a medium coloured ‘steel’ gradient - with 75% grey hair, and a dark ‘smoke’ gradient - with only 40% grey hair.

Flexibility with three attachment styles

this range features 3 attachment styles within each texture to cater to whatever your styling preference may be - whether that’s bundles for a traditional sew-in, ponies for quick and simple styling, or seamless clip ins that “invisiblend” to create a sew in-effect with a fraction of the time and effort.

Choose Short, Moderate or Long

We streamlined the length options to a maximum of three lengths for most attachment styles and textures - a short length (8/10”), moderate length (12”/14”), and a longer length (16/18”). With Clip ins and Ponies available in the longer length alone. This length selection reflect the preferences of our users and help make the decision making process less “noisy” and more straightforward.

The Grey Scale

Our multi-gradient guide that breaks down the 3-core 'grey-dients' of the GreyScale range.

Smoke = 40% Grey / 60% 1B Black

Steel = 75% Grey / 25% 1B Black

Salt = 90% Grey / 10% 1B Black

We streamlined the length options

This change in lengths has been reflected across our full range to make the decision making process less “noisy” and more straightforward.

GreyScale is available in three lengths, a short length (8/10”), moderate length (12”/14”), and a longer length (16/18”). With Clip ins and Ponies available in the longer length alone. This length selection reflect the preferences of our village and helps make the decision making process more straightforward.

Developed by Black Scientists

Developed in-house by our team of leading Black Scientists.

Ruka launched in 2020 with a mission to ‘do hair’ like it has never been done before. To us, a large part of that looked to serving the overlooked and underserved. Our dedication to this goal has made Ruka synonymous with quality hair extensions for people with textured hair. 3 years into our journey and our mission remains the same.

GreyScale is the first range of multi-gradient grey hair extensions that caters to people of across the texture spectrum. There’s no question that the very presence of grey hair commands attention. We believe it’s about time it’s given the attention it so naturally demands. Grey hair is daring, diverse and delicate all at the same time, and we’ve created this range with exactly that in mind.

Grey’ may be a singular word, but it’s not a singular colour – and that’s why we made this range multi-gradient. Each product comes in a light/white grey salt’ gradient, a moderate grey ‘steel’ gradient, and a dark grey ‘smoke’ gradient.

We also made sure that this range would be able to cater to hair types across the spectrum, and so to launch we chose 4 of our cult favourite textures – BodyWave, Press’d, Spring Fling, and Four Ayye.

#AskGenR Campaign

Take a look behind the scenes of our launch campaign.

GenR flips the outdated perspective of aging on its head and moves away from ridiculous views of stagnation and irrelevance that incite fear in the privilege that is living a long and full life.

Instead R is for the risk-takers, romantics and rebellious. GenR is for the updated and real view of what the mature woman looks and lives like.

FAQs

All GreyScale extensions are made with 100% virgin remy human hair that has been lifted to create white/grey hair. That hair is then mixed with varying amounts of natural 1b hair to create the three different gradients of grey within the range.

The GreyScale range includes a light grey/white coloured gradient (salt) – with 90% grey hair to 10% black, a medium grey coloured gradient (steel) – with 75% grey hair to 25% black, and a dark grey gradient (smoke)- with only 40% grey hair.

Tighter textures will always be central to our mission and this is why we made sure to include textured hair favourites Press’d & Four Ayye. Given our GreyScale gradients are achieved by lifting colour from the hair, we are currently sampling the best methods for achieving the same gradients with even tighter textures without compromising the quality of the hair.

Bundles: 2 for a natural density look and 3 for a high density look

Clip ins: one set is more than enough for a full head

Ponytails: one ponytail will be enough for a complete look

Depending on the texture, GreyScale hair lasts between 10-12+ months with everyday use and proper care/maintenance.

Shampoo + Deep Condition the hair regularly before reuse or storage. Use products containing bond-building ingredients to help to maintain the quality and strength of the hair, and purple shampoo + conditioner to maintain the colour of the grey hair. Detangle and manipulate the hair gently (using texture appropriate brushes where necessary). Avoid excessive heat use on looser textures (Body Wave and Press’d) and avoid heat entirely on tighter/curly textures (Spring Fling and Four Ayye).

We would advise against dyeing the hair, however, if done professionally, semi-permanent tints can be used on the hair to add subtle hues to the hair.
