I think the variety of a color and skin/eye tones are as important as hair as to what flatters one most. Saying red is good now that you have grey hair doesn't say which red-tomato, cherry, fire engine, etc. And every blue will not flatter everyone.
My husband has gray hair…when he wears a gray shirt he is so handsome…
I love the pale pink
My hair grew out to silver 8 years ago. Skin is dark. So i avoid beige, cream, yellow, brown. Makes me look washed out. I wear, cobalt blue, emerald green, red, navy blue, dark purple, fuschia pink, cornflower blue, some grey, black, turquoise, coral.
Same here. My skintone is a cool/neutral. I never looked good in warm tones, and now I *really* can’t wear them with my silver. It’s okay, I didn’t have to give anything up! And jewel tones look even better than ever now!
You listed all the colors I wear! Except the coral. And I agree on the "some grey". I prefer light to light medium blue greys, not crayon or charcoal greys. It killed me that I couldn't wear my ivory/beige leather jacket. So I gave it away to a friend.
Yes yellow looks dreadful with grey hair, a cool dark aubergine looks fabulous
Agree with all of this, other than wearing red in my wardrobe. Maybe I just do not like red ? Jewelry, oh goodness mix metals ! I love wearing the both.
I just ended my three year journey. Long completely grey ! Wooohoo I made it!
I stay away from floral prints that age me with my gray hair! I’m loving the new me!
I love floral prints. I’m a gardener and a grandma and I look like one
I agree, all your color favorites are also mine with my gray hair. I also can’t were beige! 😊
69 year old with medium skin tone and a pixie for my beautiful salt & pepper hair. Favorite colors (tops) are periwinkle, black, gray, navy,, purple,fuchsia , and warm reds. I stay away from (tops) beiges, browns, or yellows.
Agree with you 100% on continuing wearing yellow gold jewelry. It’s classic and goes with everything.
i tried going back to silver and just can’t!
My hairs naturals coloring, streaking, etc is what women pay hundreds for, at salons. I’m loving it to the fullest. I’ve earned it all, every strand of silver & white and even the greys & occasional black hairs (black?? my hair was blonde 🤷🏼♀️)
My hair is white. I'm finding bright colors are good on me.. I also love Black and White. Your hair is lovely 😍
You got my hooked at the few words you mentioned, second hand ✋ 😉 😀 👏👏👏, and for that reason....new subscriber!
My best colour used to be baby blue but since I grew my hair out I find wine or burgundy is most complimentary.
I love the look of greys matching the hair with the same undertone. Like pastels too. And bright red. I think black can give a sophisticated look. I now stay away from different prints (that really looks like granny)
Lots of great tips for us silver ladies and you look absolutely lovely in all of your clothes and are an inspiration. The only tip I personally disagree with is gold jewellery. I too love, and hate to give up on wearing, my gold pieces, especially given the cost value we have spent on owning these pieces. However I do find it clashes and doesn’t add value to my look. I have to celebrate and go with my silver tones so white gold and platinum pieces can also be used as well as silver. I totally agree with the colours you have chosen and about not wearing yellow. I also find that I can wear most colours, including brown, if they have a grey rather than yellow tone.
What an inspiring message .. you said people opinion should not matter, very true , my 2nd attempt , I went white 15 years ago and because people’s comments I coloured my hair again, now I have been white for a year and learning gradually how to treat my hair, yellow is a little issue for me, but I am getting there. I find using transparent/white shampoo/ Conditioner helps , also Towel dry my hair with white towel and use hair dryer when nearly dry. I have pierced my left earlobe to 4 dainty earnings loving the look, also wear red and bottle green sunglasses. Learning daily
My hair has gone from grey to white and love, love to wear green, any shade of green but particular a bright green. As a brunette I never would wear green. I do not like dark blue but really enjoy the jeans blue with my white hair and blue eyes. I enjoyed your video.
My favorite color with my new grown out silver hair is...beige.!
I like a lot of different things. High contrast is a fav so black/ white. Navy of course. ❤️
That's a beautiful blue blazer, and is a good color for you, agreed. You look great!
Thank you!
You look fantastic in red!
I love the beige on you. I too wear the bright lip with it. My skin is warm and hair a creamy white.
I used to wear red a lot when I was younger and had my hair dyed black or dark brown. I have dyed my hair dark red for the past decade or so and stopped wearing red because it looked weird. I am now growing my hair out and it is silver and ash brown and I am so excited to wear red again!
Helpful, thank u x Love the glasses!
Oh thank you! I just lost them - so sad :(
Any blue is amazing 👌🥰
I’m a cool winter, 57yo. I’m finding the icy/pastels are washing me out now. The gemstone colours are still best for me. I love shopping second hand too…. 🥰
The red clothes hit it with the red lipstick for me. Plain colours from now on. Loved the blue. I have a navy blue mac with gold buckling on the cuffs that I love.
super thanks!
GO WITH NAVY INSTEAD OF BLACK. Will not bring out yellow on hair.
I think a nice navy blue , and deep maroon color would be gorgeous on you 😌
I love the blue on you❤
Light blue
A very precious video - thank you!
I am so happy you enjoyed it!
Thank you I enjoyed your tips. I just wish you had shown actual navy or royal blue clothing when you were talking about them instead of showing light blue clothing. And thank you for showing your spectacles, it has given me encouragement to change my frames. Your hair looks great by the way.xxxx
Thank you enjoyed the video your hair is beautiful..
You looked stunning in all of the example outfits especially the blue jacket. So happy to hear that I don't have to give up all of my beautiful gold jewellery because that has been one thing on my mind. I am 20 1/2 weeks growing out my grey. Excellent video, thank you!!
Wow, keep going! I am so happy that you liked the video. Do you also have silver jewellery or are you a gold only lover? :) I find that I gravitate more to gold and my silver jewels are abandoned haha
Cool Sustainable I do have some white gold jewellery and a lot of silver which I rarely wear. Also have some Rose gold jewellery that I like to wear.
@@dianneporter3350 Ohhhhhh rose gold! I msut try this :)
there are no rules there wear gold if you like. people have to wear what they love
My favorite colors are the very same!
white, black, navy, shades of blue, pale pink, darker grays with white.
Love the bright lipstick with the beige sweater 😊 Yes, white does look nice with gray hair. Yes, red!! Very helpful video, thank you 🙏
Thank you - I still love beige but it doesn't work for the hair, so that's why I try the lipstick. What do you think about the pale pink?
Cool Sustainable I think the pale pink works, but prefer the other colors you called out like red, white, etc. 😊
@@dorinatudisco1308 I am so glad you liked it! :)
I had a beautiful choir director inform us before a concert that red lipstick also makes the teeth appear whiter..good to know.
I agree with you there. Red and any shades of red, fushia or dark red/maroon. Aubergine and purple. Cream rather than white for me. Thank you, like your post. Looking forward to your make up video.
Super!!!! Any lipstick colours that are your favourite?
Those earrings are amazing!
thanks!!!
I love my big gold hoops too!
Depends on your season
Thank you so much for this! 😎😎😎 it was really valuable and reassured me that I was going in the right direction. I was commenting on live chat but I got cut off. Am with you on almost all your colour choices. I'm also enjoying strong saturated pinks and purples and I love red! Looking forward to the make-up video too! I also have red glasses for sun (shades) and for reading !!!
Thank you - which colour did you not agree with? Was it the pink???
@@CoolSustainable No...funnily enough it was the strong bright blue...I am good in denims of all hues and navy is a great colour on me now but strong blue makes me look really pale and cold! I have a really chilly, cool undertone so I balance it with the reds, pinks and warm purples mainly now that my hair is silver. My eyes aren't blue so that is another reason. I have a sister with blue eyes and all blues look great on her! Thank you for asking! Have a great evening.
Wow! SO interesting! Just goes to show that we are all so different with colours. My eyess are hazel but I still love blue. So fascinating!
Enjoyed this, thanks for the great tips. I also like your choice of music, it’s very relaxing. Looking forward to your upcoming video on make-up/lipstick for grey hair! 😊🌻
I am so happy and thank you for your feedback! Do you have any lipstick colours you like?
@@CoolSustainable I normally like mauves, however, I have fair skin with dark hair transitioning to grey. So lately I'm really interested in trying new lip colors that look good with grey hair. I also prefer vegan & cruelty-free, if possible. Thanks!
Super - I am doing the research now for vegan and cruelty free colours but still using up my old lipsticks, unfortunately.
Cool Sustainable Same here. I don’t like to see anything go to waste.
I have silver hair. I get the most compliments in pale or baby pink. I also love white and red. I even like winter white, not so much beige.
Thanks for wearing gold , hope it will work for me also🙂
I am champagne gray with a lot of white framing my face, fair cool skin, I am a Summer in the seasonal color analysis. Red is really good on me, blues including navy, black, white, magenta and brighter pinks. Black is a tad harsh on its own so I mostly stick with black shoes and pants with a brighter color near my face
I have grey hair, I am a cool undertoned person and I love to wear beige, but it has to be on the cool side too. l call it a "greige", combined with something bright.
Thank you for this video 👍
My grey is silvery beige. I have a fair olive complexion. I keep away from beige and white. I love brights especially magenta, Corolla, peacock , orange, and olives. I also think primary colors look good on me. I don’t wear white clothing but I love white polish on my toes.
Thank You 🙏 and Sending Love and Light and Abundant Blessings your way xoxo 💋
Thank you so much! I am happy you enjoyed it - any useful info you liked?
Cool Sustainable Yes I am looking for a Bar soap purple shampoo which I found using your link to Amazon!
I'm a guy and love fashion, no, I'm straight as an arrow. lol But I agree with the yellow and cool/winter, not good. But I do look good in a brighter gold color. I get compliments. Also, your thoughts on deep greens? Seem to work I think.
I love your stripe t. Can you advise as to here it can be purchased? It brightens you up. You have lovely hair.
I only do pale, baby yellow. Mint green. Pale, baby pink. So it prob works. Idc tho lol I love colors and I’m too old & sun damaged/wrinkled/saggy skin to be attractive. NO makeup ever but red lips never could be on my pale skin, blue eyed and dark blonde haired self. I also have mixed metals ever since I got a wedding ring with 3 twisted metals to go with whatever I wore. Just enjoying life!
You look stunning in the red glasses and blue too plus the red lips!!!!! Your hair looks perfect to me! I wish I could keep clean in white (no chance!😂😂😂😂), but it does look really great, also in combination with other colours! Just found you and am looking forward to watching more of your videos. Day off tomorrow so hopefully can make a start! Where do you live? The river and greenery around it looks really, really nice! Wish I could go for a walk with you there! 😊😊
Thank you for such positivity! Just what I needed today. I live in Poland - welcome to visit soon!
@@CoolSustainable Thank you so much for the reply! I recently watched a tv series called‘Waterways of Europe’ and one of them was recorded in Poland. It was insanely beautiful. I am sorry I can’t remember the name of the rivers they followed but maybe one of them was yours! I live in the North of England outside Manchester but am from Southern Germany originally. My home town, Augsbrg, has two rivers, they are also nice!😊. Have a lovely day!😊😊😊🍁🍁🍂🍂🌻🌻
I love soft teal . But I’m a soft autumn.
I like the black glasses more:-)
i’ve been digging them lately as well!
This is interesting to me. I've always liked grey and red on me, and khaki, I think they are flattering colours.. Black now is a no no, never really looked good in it, but now it makes me look older and sallow.. It'll be interesting to see how these colours change once my grey comes in. I'm at the very beginning and seem to be somewhere between excited and scared.. And everything in between! Watching grey hair videos is my new obsession! Lol
I do wish I could stop reading about how fashionable it is, or reading the words "granny chic".. I'm not trying to be fashionable at all, and I'm not a granny! Just a bugbear of mine I guess! Anyway, ty for this video X
Right??! I am just me - deal with it.
l agree, I don't like black.
I agree with everything you said except the beige sweater.
really???
@@CoolSustainable yes! You're so beautiful and everything looks great on you but I just think the beige doesn't do anything for you. My opinion.
While I don’t wear too many much dark brown or beige, I find wearing taupe works better now.
Less and less black - dark colours in fact. Neutrals, pastels, pink, beiges, violet, whites are great to enhance your natural colour
Love your handbag, is it Chloe? Also where are your earring from with blue blazer please? 😊
I can wear any color I want...but my hair is silvery white...I won't wear brown.
What do you use to do your brows? What color? They are beautiful.
Im watching your video now. I have the same exact coloring as you. I look great in white, black, blue but am struggling to find other options. Any suggestions?
I have warm skin tone and almost white hair that I’m just adapting too after asking hair dresser to blend in my natural white so great to come and get ideas. Loved your red glasses. And my fave colours so far are navy, dark grey coral and light blue 🙂
thanks!!!!
I'm glad to hear of someone else with warm skintone. I have both warm skintones and undertones, that hate white. It washes me out! And, black only looks good on my lower body. I purchased a salt and pepper wig to wear as the hair dye grows out. I have noticed that the new growth is actually, white. Even a few of my brow hairs are coming in completely, white. I imagine that when all of the dye is gone my hair will be white.
I love Autumn colors as I 've noticed that I get a lot of compliments. My question, will I still be able to wear, Autumn colors? I hate pale colors!
Graying brown hair with fair warm skin, green eyes. Glasses, too
I’m going through the grey journey, my hair is long, half grey and darker on the bottom. My colors are very basic, black, white, cream, grey . Very simple makeup, a color lipstick, not red , but a brown red! Not often. I have a chic boho look about me. No pastel colors at all.
No red at all either, must be a specific red and I could never find the right one. I’m warm and cool tones, I could pretty much wear any jewel color.
Black is my signature color! I love my grey hair. I have added a few blue and blush pieces lately.
I wear a strong frame eye glasses in black. I do wear mixed material all the time.
It sounds like you’ve got it! Do you still wear grey? I am so torn about it!
Cool Sustainable
Hello there, yes I do, different shades, darker lighter and even ice grey, I’m very much into monochromatic looks. I still go very light on the make when wearing of my color plates, which is a basic color plate. At this point I see my grey part of the hair, which now almost longer than the traditional bob, but I’m not cutting it until I get to the desire length. My grey outfit do compliment my hair, maybe a bit darker at times often lighter, I’m fine with that. I use purple shampoo once every 4-6 weeks with a parvana toner. I trim my hair every 3 to 6 month and have it toned professionally to have the grey stand out.
Well, I have grey hair and grey blue eyes, so I can't wear the same colors like you do. I need colors from the clear winter pallet. Cold colors ! Red doesn't suit me at all , gold neither!
I’m a bright spring ( before I let my natural hair colour grow in. I’m abit confused now with my palette. Browns and corals just don’t feel right anymore
With warm undertones in my skin and light green eyes, I am very confused about wearing cool colors. When I had auburn hair, warm tones were complimentary. I would like to know if I should now wear a cooler palette with my now white hair? I can wear teal, aqua, and navy well. Black isn’t flattering. I like your striped top in the video. I also buy second hand clothing and enjoy finding higher quality fabrics.
You are adorable! Thanks for the tips :)))))))))
aw thank you for watching :)
I'm new to your channel and I'm not sure what color,s look good with my skin tone
What about light grey? I like wearing it and white is not possible with 3 small kids 😅
My hair is white and really looks like a platinum blond. It is definitely not grey.
That’s really nice! I find myself wishing for more white in mine...
I look better in pinks and blues - but yellow is UGH!
Jewel tones!
What’s your favorite ?
Cool Sustainable -maroon, purple, and green. Red is a favorite, also!
maroon!!!! nice idea!
White, purple, red, navy, green.
deep purple or like a lighter shade?
Thanks 😊👍🙏💜✌️
Cant wear brown cream .. i.ll wear tan or brown accessories shoes handbags
Dark brown eyes, pale warm skin, light silver hair - black turns me into a vampire
Sadly, my gray is dull and does not have white or shine. Discouraging. Red gives me stress.
Did you visit Poland? Kazimierz :)
Many thanks for your video. Do u do anything to your hair to have the pepper and salt color?
Nothing - that's the beauty of the grow out process - you never know what you will get.
I wear pure hues with black and white ... but stay away from gray, tan and brown.
Depends what colour grey you are
I believe that skin tone counts to.
Indeed - cool white makes pale me look sallow
Theres about 100 different shades an tones of gray, as long as u use the right contrast. Wear what goes with skin ,not hair. To each their own. Beautiful silver.
If you have yellows in your hair, which is from sun damage or tobacco you Cann use purple shampoo and your greys/whites will be more pronounced.
Thanks! I do, but cannot escape the sun no matter how hard I try...
That is strange. I have no problem with the sun at all. On the contrary.
Do you have a link for your consignment shopping that you mentioned? Thank you.
I do- I will post it today :) Thank you for reminding me.
@@CoolSustainable thank you!
it is Vestiare Collective. us.vestiairecollective.com/
It is my absolute favourite!
black, purple, blue looks good....orange, beige and yellow not so good.
Man, you probably get this a lot but you're quite a gorgeous lady
Magenta, Red, the most saturated color
My champagne grey hair seems to be going well with my skintone. I can wear more brighter colours. Stripes are refreshing. Grey tones with white and some black looks good on me.
Colours: Red is great- green is horrible- cream is also horrible- at least on me.
Agree 100%!
What sort of green? Just curious, as I've always loved Khaki on me (I'm not yet grey all over though)... All tones of green, or just certain ones? :)
@@nnnnn1610 if they have a bit of blue in them they are Ok but otherwise all greens- I just look ill :-(
I hate red. I do love cranberry or brick.
You are battle ship salt and pepper many are natural
Blonde colour
But my hair is a lot whiter than yours .
Do you like purple ?
I do! Actually I have dabbling with purple recently and it works great!
wow, i thought for sure your jewelry was silver.
me to
i think both work but i just prefer gold - what i mean it, it probably doesn’t matter!
Beige! Bleh.
