Instead Of Covering Grey Roots, This Hair Colorist Makes Clients Embrace It
According to trichologist Madeleine Preston, most women who are in their 30s should see a few grey hairs here and there, but by the time they get into their 50s, about half of their scalp hairs turn grey. Like wrinkles, silver flocks are part of aging. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with them.
Celebrity colorist Jack Martin is also a firm believer of that. For the past couple of years, he has been on a mission to prove that grey never goes out of style: Martin has developed a technique that allows his clients to gradually ditch the dye. He also posts before-and-after pictures of these empowering transformations to show they look badass.

She looks absolutely stunning. The new hair color and style makes her look so chic and polished. It suits her perfectly. She looks younger, effortlessly elegant and so much more confident. I love this transformation.
Pretty. More people should do this instead of covering it up
That first pic, the way the hair is presented, is shocking. I've never so clearly seen the difference posed in that fashion.
Who would have thought that going gray could make someone look YOUNGER!!
My older sister always wanted curly hair. She would be so jealous
The person who does these people's hair must be very talented
She looks like she's looking at her in surprise and she is really pleased!
Black hair colors just don't look good next to pale skin. The grey is so much better.
Love the transformation. The man in the second picture looks like he saw something scary
In the second one it looks like she has @JackMartinColorist tattooed on her neck
To me, the point of going gray is so you don't have to color your hair anymore. These transformations are gorgeous, but if these women want to keep their hair looking like this, they'll have to keep getting recolored just like they did before. Just about all of these include highlights and lowlights and unnatural silver colors, which when growing out will not look as beautiful.
When I started really showing roots in grey, I went for platinum with dark roots . The darker roots are actually my own regrowth. I like it a lot as it isn't platinum all over. So now I only have the get a touch up , maybe every 6 months or so.

I can't remember the last time I dyed my hair. More than 10 years ago. I was asked by someone why I don't do it, and my reply is; "With age comes wisdom. Why would i want to cover up my wisdom?" No one says I should color my hair anymore.
I am 40 and had blonde hair as my natural color for the first 32 years of my life. After I had my daughter it turned brown; NOW, it’s turning silver/grey, but looks like it’s turning back to blonde. I have people comment ALL THE TIME about it or question why I don’t color it. I tell them that it helps me look closer to my age; because I look like I’m in my mid to late 20s. I have a 14 year old and an 8 year old and people LOVE to clutch their pearls when they assume you had a kid when you were 13. 🙄🤣
