"Since the pandemic, it's wonderfully more acceptable to show your natural greys, and celebrities such as Jennifer Aniston, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Sarah Jessica Parker are leading the way when it comes to incorporating their grey hairs into their iconic hair colours," Smith says. "Using a herringbone pattern of highlighting, various shades are woven in among the grey strands, giving a finely balanced mix of warm and cool tones. This really celebrates grey hair by including them in a hair-colour design as an additional highlight colour."
To get the colour, ask your stylist to mix (not nix) your greys and incorporate warm- and cool-toned highlights in an irregular way. "Not alternating each shade but scattering and diffusing the various shades around the irregular pattern of your own grey hair — since grey hairs tend to arrive sporadically and scattered — to work with this rather than fight against it for a hair-colour design that is totally tailored to you."
