Spotting your first grey hair should not be cause for self-loathing but rather embraced as a mark of coming sophistication, says mobile barbering pioneer Giuliano Dore. 

“Grey hair is a natural occurrence; however, styling is the key,” said Giuliano, founder of Get Groomed who offer corporate and individual mobile haircutting services. 

“Adopting a modern haircut can transform not only your look, but also your outlook regardless of your hair colour. So even if you have grey hair, there’s a silver lining to that.  

“You need to face the music and look for ways on how you can best wear your grey hair to your advantage.  

“After all some of the world’s most high-profile heartthrobs are silver-haired – look at George Clooney, Mark Ruffalo, and Barack Obama, or the UK’s George Lamb.

Giuliano, who founded the business with Sabrina Vjaykumar in 2017 which covers Birmingham, Manchester, London, Kent, and Guildford in West Surrey, says grey hair is currently in vogue.  

“Going over to the silver side has been considered a legitimate stylish hair colour for a while and it’s currently having a moment with the younger crowd. 

“They may be using artificial methods to get the look, but for the older guys who have it naturally, the key to rocking it is by accepting it and by being confident with it.” 

Giuliano says one way to do this is to make use of hair products that can help bring out the best features and angles of grey hair.  

“A lightweight gel or mousse will give you a more natural look and will accentuate your shine rather than mask your silver tones; but make sure your product isn't too thick.  

“A pomade will thicken nicely but remember to choose a silky finish for a more contemporary spin for this look. 

“Grey hair can look dull when neglected so don’t forget to blow dry; the more voluminous your hair, the more youthful and appealing it looks.” 

Giuliano says it is also important to dress the part to complement the look. 

“Embrace a minimalist, less-is-more style and go for classic pieces and timeless colours. And dress age-appropriately; not like you’re trying hard to be one of the boys.”
