Celebrity Hairstyles are Going Gray!
Nicole Kidman shows gray
Celebrity hairstyles . . . to go gray or not to go gray, that’s the question!
“Celebrity Hairstyles are going Gray!”
Nicole Kidman made news when she showed up at the NYC premiere of her new film, Australia, showing the gray! Who would of thunk it? Showing her gray roots, right out there for everyone to see!! Was it intentional? Looks that way wouldn’t you say? In Hollywood, to show this much gray at her age, (a meer 41) is rather unheard of . . . or is it?
Inside Edition aired a piece this week featuring, Anne Kreamer, the author of the book, Going Gray. I think I heard something a while back about this woman who did an explicit experiment concerning the opposite sex’s true perceptions regarding women with gray hair. Somehow I forgot to write it down and forgot to pick up the book.
In short, her experiment involves joining an online dating service where she posts two identical profiles in every way excepting her hair color. She photoshopped her own picture in both gray and brown hair and took her scientific quest to a number of different cities across country.
What an interesting experiment it turned out to be! Don’t miss it . . . I’ll leave that for you to read for yourself in Anne’s own words in an article More magazine featured.
On Inside Edition they were quick to point out a handful of celebrity hairstyles that have been showing up gray as of late. Actually, I loved Meryl Streep, with her silvery locks in, Devil Wears Prada. I think this great silvery-gray color, coupled with this fabulous hairstyle on Meryl, is the best look I’ve seen on her! It was tough deciphering whether it was or wasn’t a wig.

An interesting bit Kreamer shares in her story . . . “I was appalled to find out when I did the math that I had spent, over the 25 years that I had dyed my hair, $65,000!” According to Anne, more women are sporting a bold new look and saving lots of money doing so. If you want a fun read this winter to hunker down with, check out this book!
A heads up; Not all those gray haired celebrity hairstyle beauties are wearing the natural gray hair mother nature has given them. Even gray hair can be greatly enhanced with rinses, color and bluing agents to give a brighter, more silvery shimmer!

I have about two inches of graying roots and the rest of my hair is fading, medium brown, becoming very brassy. I have read that you can get a clear toning glaze that will tone down the brassiness without changing the color, but cannot find any such thing or anyone who knows what I’m talking about…????

The clear toning glaze that you have heard about is an in salon product. You cannot purchase it over the counter and if you could it would not tone the brassiness. Only in a salon setting can we use a glaze and add to it the toner needed to reduce any unwanted tones, such as brass. It is will worth the time and money to have this service done, especially if you are growing out your haircolor.

I went grey in my 20s; am now fed up with coloring my hair and let it grow out. But trying to find products and haircuts that suit a young (ish) woman is almost impossible. Every hair stylist I go to gives me the granny style …. because my hair is GREY. Drives me crazy.
