Hey my beautiful ladies! For years we’ve been trying to cover those grays, remove any hint of possible aging. We have been crying real tears every time we look into the mirror and realize that our last dye is already growing out. But now, there’s a new beauty trend among young women!
Grey silver locks have seemed to make a place of its own in the fashion world and anyone between 18 to 81 is looking sexy with this hair color. It’s a bold hair statement and it actually looks awesome (and strange) in every type of style. Whether you have natural slate strands or stripped down to a faux foggy shade, this is the time to embrace the color fade. Lady Gaga and Dascha Polanco have already been showing off their gorgeous style in grey or gray. Also we’ve seen celebrities like Rihanna and Zosia Mamet rocking the dusty hue on the red carpet, but more importantly, the anti-hair-color trend has hit our Instagram feeds.

Carlina Ortega, Hair Colorist at Rita Hazan explains how you can achieve this look if you are already don’t have a natural grey hair. “Unless you’re already a natural ashy blonde, the trick is to lighten the hair to that perfect yellow stage, so that it will be light enough to get that gray tone you want without causing any damage.” For many, this look has existed in its blonder form, as platinum blonde. Now, we need to go just a little darker and remove any hint of blonde that might alter the hue we wish to achieve.
