grey hair Archives - Pretty Please Charlie

I mentioned to you last week that TOSCA Hair & Beauty will be taking care of my locks from now, so I thought I’d tell you about my experience at the Tyger Valley branch. And of course show off my gorgeous new colour.

Tosca Hair Tyger Valley – a Review

I visited the Tyger Valley branch on Women’s Day and I walked out a very happy customer.

The salon is simply gorgeous and has the most beautiful finishes. Every single person there is chatty and friendly. It is such a treat visiting such a happy place.

I think I’ve mentioned to you before how much I love the denim hair trend? Okay, I’ve mentioned it about a 100 times! I have blue-grey denim hair. I get an awkward look here and there, because let’s be honest, blue hair in the Northern Suburbs of Cape Town isn’t very common. But I love it!

I’m happy to say that my stylist loves it too. And after a consultation where I almost talked her ear off, she got to work. It was lovely being able to chat to a stylist who is so keen to get my colour ‘just right’. It is so nice to know that we are on the same page.

And the results? Love!

I have been a blonde for about 12 years. I loved being a blonde. But after 12 years, I was starting to get bored. In all honesty, I’ve been bored with blonde for quite a while, but I had no idea what I wanted. I wanted a change, but I didn’t want to go back to any of the multitude of hair colours I had before the blonde. I’ve done red. I’ve done plum. I’ve done dark brown.

I’ve been a bit obsessed with grey/silver and denim hair for a while, but I was too scared to try it. What if grey just made me look older?! I am 38 and the blonde highlights have been doing a pretty decent job of hiding the grey I already have. And denim? What if that just made me look like an ‘old tannie‘ trying too hard?!

I was on my way to Style Bar a couple of weeks ago to get my roots done, and on my way there (about 10 minutes from the salon) my sister talked me into it… I was going denim!

I was strangely calm about the decision.

My Hair Makeover: From Blonde to Denim

Before…

After…

I am in love with my hair!! It’s still a work in progress, but we’ll get to that perfect shade of blue grey that I’m after.

Thank you to Style Bar and my amazing stylist. It’s been a pleasure!

And thank you to my sister for forcing me into it ;)
