In this episode, I'm chatting to Julie Kneafsey, AKA the Fiftyist, about her grey hair journey. And how the transition led to a new career, and a completely different attitude towards ageing.

Julie's had breast cancer twice, and when genetic testing showed that it wasn't inherited genes that were responsible, she started to investigate other possible causes. That journey led to a passion for clean beauty, culminating in the publication of her e-book Clean.

She'd had a reaction to hair dye since her teens, and because of the chemicals it contains, it's the first thing she'd recommend giving up!

In this episode I'm chatting to Emma Blaker who chose to go grey in Lockdown, and lightened her hair first to avoid a strong demarcation line during the grow out.

Emma works as a mobile barber, and one of the things we chatted about was her male clients' attitudes to going grey. And whether any of them are colouring their hair to disguise their greys.

In this week's podcast I'm chatting to Alison Monteith, who loves creating some drama with her silver hair, which is short at the sides and long on top. When she styles it up, she always get lots of compliments when she's out and about.

Alison is passionate about keeping fit and strong. And at 68 is still being set, and achieving, challenging gym goals by her PT. She loves the gym, and plans to keep going forever!
