When I saw the beginning picture with the before and after, I REALLY assumed the all black was the after shot...monochrome, sleek, modern, and she wore it well. The dress she tried on was great, but the pink outfit ...oh my goodness-YIKES!!
TOP TIP to older women: if you don't want to feel invisible, STOP dressing in generic M&S clothing where you all LOOK THE SAME. It's not hard, ladies. And stop having that short 'old lady' haircut - and ditch the metal-framed glasses. You'll drop 20 years overnight. I'm nearly 70 and everyone thinks I'm mid-40's.
Mind you, can’t help thinking you might feel obliged to say, ‘I feel wonderful’ after all that care and attention! I thought she looked so nice at the beginning - just needed a splash of colour with the black.
It might be TV, but it is real, and Vanda is a real person who asked for help, and got it. She was starting to lose her confidence after retiring and wanted a revamp. She also received laser treatment, microblabding and treatment and a cut to her hair. Advertising for all the companies involved. At the end of the day, she felt so much better than at the beginning and got results she wanted.
I thought she looked rather lovely before. I would have just added a stylish necklace or earrings, a bit of make up perhaps - but she has a lovely, gentle face, and I actually liked the black! I’m afraid I find the pink quite hideous.
A nice bob, with longer front layers and a shorter back (which would still have covered her hearing aids), would’ve been nicer. Like a Vidal Sassoon 60s cut, but more modern.
No, she can't change, and why does society make us believe that looking younger is better and ageing something to be ashamed of? Has an 'older' man appeared on this show trying to look younger? Nope. Leave us women alone aging is an absolute privilege!
I'm older than her and I think the makeover is giving "The Golden Girls!" And the Dorothy Hamil haircut isn't helping. Trousers are too short and the suit needs tailoring. It's not her fault and I'm glad she's pleased with the change. Find her a better stylist!
Hmm so this is what the makeover team think aged '59' represents? 😦 I'm not really sure about that, speaking as someone not far off that. I feel this outfit has actually aged her terribly. Nicky has essentially dressed her in clothes Nicky wears , the pink suit Vanda is sporting is just like what Nicky wore at the beginning of the piece! The leg length is too short, unflattering. Her skin does look bright & her hair cut is cute, though predictable, perhaps a little colour could've helped knock a few years off as that was the intention of the makeover, but the clothes styling doesn't do her any favours, definitely doesn't lose her a decade... imho, & the look on the presenters faces kind'a says the same. That said, if Vanda is happy then that is what truly matters.
What a lovely bubbly lady. I thought she looked great before the makeover, but the makeover styling (including the haircut( did nothing for her. The black outfit before the makeover suited her more & her new haircut in my opinion ages her.
What a lovely lady, but I was disappointed at the result. I wanted something better for her, she deserved it. As some people have said, if she is happy that’s great. Personally I’m 71 and people don’t believe it, but would look older wearing that, it’s not me, but she wanted a suit so perhaps that’s her style.
As someone who is 10 years younger than the lady featured, I feel the clothes choice is appalling, very dated and very ageing rather than giving her a look 10 years younger
Agree with what your saying the dress that she chose to try on in the shop lookt alot better.. and the way she had her hair before lookt alot better it just needed styling up abit but at the same time keeping the same length.
Oh dear, that's a disappointing reveal to say the least. Not into her outfit and bag. Preferred her hair beforehand. A decade younger, sorry not for me.
The first dress made her look ten years older. The pink suit doesn’t suit her at all. The big bow looks ridiculous. She should have been in put in slimming black.
Why have you dressed her like a Tory politician?! Sorry but NHJ has always had strange style taste. This look is SO out of date and just ugh. Like the shorter hair though.
She looks great in the first dress, but its not her and she won't reach for it for everyday life. I kind of like her style in the first place. The pink suit is not what I think she would look best in. Maybe I'd have chosen something more like what the female host is wearing. I think the hair is good. Good eyebrows. Shame botox and fillers are now considered part of a glow up.
Outfit is not flattering, slacks need to be longer, haircut is frumpy looking and the fillers did not fill in the eleven lines and the lines on each side of her mouth. This was an so so makeover but she is lovely on her own
My mum had died her hair for years and during lockdown she let it grow out . She now has white hair and she loves nit having do it every few weeks she might not of wanted a different colour .
@lindseymercer7833 I know I suppose I'm a hairdresser and love what colour can do to knock off a few years and give hair a younger look x I just feel her hair still looked quite older
Don’t think it’s made her look any younger as such, but she does look so vibrant, so confident, and just amazing!
When I saw the beginning picture with the before and after, I REALLY assumed the all black was the after shot...monochrome, sleek, modern, and she wore it well. The dress she tried on was great, but the pink outfit ...oh my goodness-YIKES!!
Me too, I sort of went .......is that it when she walked out.
WOULDN'T LET ANY OF THEM MAKE ME OVER 😅
As long as the lady is happy that’s all that matters I am 71 not my taste but we all have our own style.

Beautiful skin and beautiful personality.
Oh my days - even the stylist needs help 😮
I love that for her it was jaw dropping - that’s what matters❤

I think she looks fabulous, love the colours. She looks so happy .
I really like Wanda in black! Her hair is to die for :-)
I thought she looked rather lovely before. I would have just added a stylish necklace or earrings, a bit of make up perhaps - but she has a lovely, gentle face, and I actually liked the black! I’m afraid I find the pink quite hideous.
She has a gorgeous head of hair and they gave her an awful old lady haircut!
Exactly.
A nice bob, with longer front layers and a shorter back (which would still have covered her hearing aids), would’ve been nicer. Like a Vidal Sassoon 60s cut, but more modern.
Looks more old after the makeover
Vanda looks amen and beautiful
The hairstyle could have been better
Be kind too many negative comments that lady is so happy why spoil that.
Being pampered and being the center of attention also has a lot to do with her new vibrant look.
No, she can't change, and why does society make us believe that looking younger is better and ageing something to be ashamed of? Has an 'older' man appeared on this show trying to look younger? Nope. Leave us women alone aging is an absolute privilege!
Lovely personality ❤ But agree that the suit is ill-fitting...Would have gone for longer trousers to elongate her body...Hair is beautiful 🎉
I'm older than her and I think the makeover is giving "The Golden Girls!" And the Dorothy Hamil haircut isn't helping. Trousers are too short and the suit needs tailoring. It's not her fault and I'm glad she's pleased with the change. Find her a better stylist!

Why oh why give her that haircut?!
What a lovely lady . I didn't like the dress but she looks great in the trouser suit.
You look beautiful ❤
Some makeup does make a big difference and putting clothes that makes you look younger too.
she looks beautiful
The yellow bag 😂
I think she look wonderful and the pink and animal print is so fun,
It appears as if she is wearing the stylist's suit. Not sure about that huge bow shirt either. As long as she's happy that's all that matters.
i'm glad she's happy and her skin looks better, but i can't say i like the hair or the clothes. terrible outfit.
What a lovely bubbly lady.
I thought she looked great before the makeover, but the makeover styling (including the haircut( did nothing for her.
The black outfit before the makeover suited her more & her new haircut in my opinion ages her.
Terrible blouse. Swamped in cheap leopard. Shapeless. Could have done better for her.
I think she looks great! 🥰
What a lovely lady, but I was disappointed at the result. I wanted something better for her, she deserved it.

I agree - the clothes are awful !
Docs and a leather biker jacket?
Agree with what your saying the dress that she chose to try on in the shop lookt alot better.. and the way she had her hair before lookt alot better it just needed styling up abit but at the same time keeping the same length.
Did she just put Nicki's clothes on lol
Oh dear, that's a disappointing reveal to say the least.
Not into her outfit and bag.
Preferred her hair beforehand.
A decade younger, sorry not for me.
Although I think she looks good. I think it’s poor styling when a stylist just puts their own style on someone else.
The first dress made her look ten years older. The pink suit doesn’t suit her at all. The big bow looks ridiculous. She should have been in put in slimming black.
Lovely lady, but they've made her look older
I think they’ve made her look a bit cheap and flashy, which is a pity
The hair is dreadful......she needed a colour change......hate the clothes.....😮
Well, aren't you nice.
Why have you dressed her like a Tory politician?!
Sorry but NHJ has always had strange style taste.
This look is SO out of date and just ugh.
Like the shorter hair though.
She added 10 years
no
Looks good except for the massive bow.!
I love the bow 🙏
She looks great in the first dress, but its not her and she won't reach for it for everyday life. I kind of like her style in the first place. The pink suit is not what I think she would look best in. Maybe I'd have chosen something more like what the female host is wearing.
I think the hair is good.
Good eyebrows.
Shame botox and fillers are now considered part of a glow up.
Aww sorry like but she looks older
Outfit is not flattering, slacks need to be longer, haircut is frumpy looking and the fillers did not fill in the eleven lines and the lines on each side of her mouth. This was an so so makeover but she is lovely on her own
Oh dear
I think she looks great, but it doesn't seem to "fit" her. Not size wise, but who she is. 🤷
No sorry. Darling lady but looks older
I've been wondering what happened to Nicky Hambleton-Jones. She just disappeared after her now-famous makeover show.
Probably because all the makeovers were terrible. Love Trinny Woodall more.
Poor lady. The clothes are awful.
You’ve got to remember it’s TV darling, nothing’s real.
But it was for her…
Id have changed the hair color
My mum had died her hair for years and during lockdown she let it grow out . She now has white hair and she loves nit having do it every few weeks she might not of wanted a different colour .
@lindseymercer7833 I know I suppose I'm a hairdresser and love what colour can do to knock off a few years and give hair a younger look x I just feel her hair still looked quite older
Hair colour should have been changed. Lipstick should have been far brighter. All in all, a poor attempt at making her look younger.
They made her look worse
Why did the stylist dress her in the same style of clothes that she was wearing ? Feel the stylist could have done better.
Stylist made her into a mini me. Don't think she looked any younger. Hair was an improvement imo but clothes were ill fitting.
The stylist Nicky is cringe...
Why???
And her skin is
Lovely
Where do they find these people about ?
That stylist hasn’t a clue and could do with someone taking her into hand
Awful. Just hideously awful.
Her hair was better before.
Really lovely lady but no, the hair is just appalling, the suit is basically Nicky’s, the only thing good about this is the eyebrows 🤦🏼♀️
