ctrl+shift+Uor

cmd+shift+U (on mac)

This makes anything inside the layer you have selected, black and white, grayscale.

But there is a difference of a grayscale color mode and grayscale layer contents.

Grayscale sellected from mode window, refers to the whole document. It is different than having only a layer or two in B&W and everything else in color.

To switch to grayscale or any other color mode you can go to

image/mode/*Grayscale (RGB, CMYK...etc)
