Hi, I’m Mel, your beauty bestie and makeup mentor.

I love helping women over 40 with their hair and makeup to inspire confidence and conviction as they navigate their 40s and beyond.

Where it all started…..

Back in 2016, the year I turned 40, I began my natural silver hair transition. That’s where the name Silver Styling came from. You can read my full Going Grey transition story here.

I’m a Hair and Makeup artist, based primarily in London and the author here on Silver Styling. I love mentoring women through the hair, makeup and beauty overwhelm, so they can look and feel their best and approach midlife and beyond with confidence and conviction.

I am here to encourage you to be your best from the inside out as you approach your 40’s and beyond.

You can find more about me here.

See you there!

A slightly strange image on this square but I did $A slightly strange image on this square but I did a reel and I really didn’t love it, so here is a ‘still’ instead 🤗It was about finding time to rest and self care. More about this below…. I show up on social media to be inspiring (I hope), entertaining and to give you something to take away. Instagram is a form of escapism for many of us and a place to draw inspiration. However, lately my posts don’t get to you all. They hardly find a fraction of my followers, which I’m finding incredibly frustrating. The Instagram algorithm is a mystery. What I do know is that Instagram want us to be on here all the time and I have reduced my time on the app as I know it’s not healthy to be looking at a screen more than necessary. That’s the only change I’ve made. I still post regularly and share stories too but don’t scroll as often as I did. Whilst I love Instagram, I don’t agree that any of us should be looking at a screen more than a small portion of our day so if this is how it is, then so be it. I also refuse to post for the sake of it and regurgitate the same reels as everyone else just to get views and attention. That’s not ‘me’ and I wouldn’t be authentic if I participated in it. Saying that, I’ll keep digging deep for you guys and my hope is that I have much more to share with you going forward. I’d also like to give you a message and I hope it reaches those who need it. If you are struggling with your mental health. Please get help!!! Go to your GP as soon as possible and put everything else on hold. Tell them you need support. Read books to help you and reach out to others including your employers or colleagues and KEEP TALKING. Know that your brain may need medicine as any other organ in your body and it’s nothing to be ashamed of. Remember that despite how you feel and what you are thinking- you are loved 🥰 Have a lovely Sunday and find some time to rest. #selfcare #rest #slowdown #over40 #read #getinspired #spirit #selflove #youdoyou #beyourself #authentic$

Feelings override everything. Picture someone in
