<p>I&#8217;ve been told repeatedly by my hairdresser not to touch my locks with a box dye kit whilst in lockdown, but the situation&#8217;s getting dire (hello, grandma). With salons not due to open for at least another month or two and my total refusal to go &#8216;natural&#8217; &#8211; I&#8217;m telling you now, I&#8217;ll fight that one to the death &#8211; I&#8217;ve been researching the best ways to erase the grey without damaging my hair and the results are in. Try one of these top non-dye toucher-uppers until you can be weepily reunited with your colourist later this summer.</p>
