Dia daoibh!
Even though grey hair is the 'in' colour at the moment, I'm not one for the natural salt n pepper look in my 20's, so I'm ready to conceal my greys.... at least for now!
I'm not sure if you can tell on camera, but I didn't conceal my greys in the below video, just to prove a point.... that you shouldn't feel obliged to hide your greys. It's a natural part of life and we will all go through it at different stages. It's nothing to be embarrassed of. Here are mine, up close and personal!!
But for those of you who just simply can't hack the sight of those little fellas, here are some quick and easy ways to hide them without dying your hair.

Hide your grey hairs using a mascara - for my hair, I used a dark brown mascara to match my hair colour. I prefer to use this method when my hair is tied back, as mascara tends to harden/go crunchy when dried, so it's perfect to keep the hair slicked back and hidden when up in a bun or ponytail.
Hide your grey hairs using an eyeshadow - again, obviously, use a colour to match your own hair colour. This method is better for when your hair is down as there will be no drying necessary or crunchyness that you might get from a mascara.
I recently discovered the L'Oreal Magic Retouch and I really love it to conceal the greys temporarily. It's currently on offer >HERE< if you'd like to test it out yourself. Alternatively (and cheaper!) Batiste do a range of dry shampoos with a tint for the colour of your hair. Click >HERE< to have a look.
Below is my video demo of the products along with some myths and facts about grey hair.
