Goodbye to gunmetal grey
LISA COLEMAN, 53, is married to Darren, 46. They have four children and live in the West Midlands. She says: THIS fabulous hair is part of an ongoing transformation. Four years ago, I ate for comfort and weighed over 30st.
In old pictures my hair is a terrible mousy brown. I cut and dyed it myself because I was scared of breaking chairs in the hairdressers. Today, I’ve only got another 14lb to lose and felt a revamp could give me a final boost.
NICOLA SAYS: Grey hair is hard to cover up. Lisa’s hair was stunning already and her olive skin and darker eyes mean she can carry off a strong look. She kept referring to Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada, who had a strong silvery blonde. That’s what we went for. The colour I’ve created is platinum rather than yellow. I lifted out lots of the darker grey, using bleach to freshen her look.
LISA SAYS: A wonderful experience, leaving me comfortable in my own skin. I’m proof any woman can go blonde.
