I had let my grey hairs grow out quite a bit during lockdowns before I finally went and got them 'did'. I made sure to get Gerard to capture my natural look in the daylight, with little makeup. At the salon the hairdresser asked me if being a nude model meant I needed to be body conscious. I said yes and that I also need to be body positive. I think it's up to me as a model to present a version of myself that I love. Or as Ru Paul puts it "if you can't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love anybody else?"

Now my hair has highlights to blend away the greys, but it was good for me to learn to live with them for a while.
