HAIR UPDATES | GOING FOR GREY
It was time for a change. Albeit a small
one – I’d love to be the sort to brave dying my hair all the colours of the
rainbow, but I’m just not. I love all these out there options for hair, but I’m
someone that’s a total wimp when it comes to change… Hence why I’ve always had
hair along the ‘long and blonde’ lines. After internally debating, I decided to
change it up for a few weeks with a few grey tones!
Yup, I know grey is kind of the ‘thing’
right now, but that doesn’t really put me off – if I like it, I like it. It
seemed like a good idea for making a teeny weenie change, as it was only a case
of adding some toner to my hair. It won’t last forever - this sort of grey
rinse will probably wash up over the coming weeks, so if I had decided I didn’t
like it, it wouldn’t have been a biggie. I’m loving it right now, but over
summer it’s likely I’ll fancy that beachy blonde look again.
So, what did I ask my hairdresser for? In
the lead up I did a lot of Pinterest/Instagram stalking, mostly searching
#greyombre and compiling a folder full of screenshots featuring my favourite
styles. I find it so difficult to explain what I’m after at the hairdressers,
taking a few pictures always works much better for me! The ones below are just
a few from in my ‘Grey Hair Inspo’ pin board – I’m sure quite a few of these
are photoshopped, but they got across the look I was after. Cooler tones, with
grey ends. My Nanna totally doesn’t get why I’ve died my hair the colour she’s
trying to get rid of, but for me it’s the perfect shade for trying something
new, without feeling too out of my comfort zone!
