BEAUTY BAR: Silver Hair, Don't Care

August 28th, 2015 at 2:00am

Youths around the world have been recreating an old silver fox look. Who knew that a hairstyle that has been referred to as the “granny hair” trend could be so chic! From models off-the-runway to fashion bloggers, the look has been one of the biggest trends of the summer.

One thing that I have noticed about the silver hair trend is that it can be used with various different styles. Whether you are more girly or edgy, the look adds a unique and stylish vibe to any outfit.

This Fashionista took the edgy route with her recreation of the popular look. She wears a cropped gray t-shirt with black skinny trousers and ties a plaid flannel around her waist. To accessorize she adds a pair of pointed-toe ankle booties and a black gold studded bag. In addition, she layers necklaces and bracelets for a more put together version of a casual look.

What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: Recreating this silver hair look is a process. Luckily there are several options! For at-home access, there are several silver hair colors on the market right now. Protect your scalp and the nape of your neck from the color by applying Vaseline. Next, split your hair into sections and apply the color for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, rinse out the color and wash using color-safe shampoo and conditioner. The easiest, but more expensive option, is to go to a salon and endure the 3 step process of bleaching and dyeing the hair. People have found success with both methods! Remember that if you do not continue using the gray dye, your hair might begin to turn an ashy blonde color.
