#GrannyHair forever.
#GrannyHair has officially taken over the internet as the coolest hair trend.
Celebrities like Kylie Jenner and Kelly Osbourne have dyed their hair gray in the past, but recently, more and more people are hopping on the gray hair dye train. What started as a popular hair color on Pinterest grew to be one of the most sought after beauty trends on Instagram.

Women and men are choosing to go gray (before they get there naturally), resulting in a completely badass look.
But while naturally going gray requires no work besides waiting, going artificially gray calls for quite a bit of work.

We asked BuzzFeed style editor Julie Gerstein to walk through process of going gray from start to finish.
With the help of Jan-Marie Arteca, a colorist at Jeff Chastain Parlor hair salon in New York City, BuzzFeed Life learned exactly how much maintenance, time, and money the #GrannyHair trend requires.

Before you settle on gray hair, you have a few decisions to make. Namely, are you willing to put your hair through the potential damage from bleach and dye?
Unless you have a naturally light-blond hair color, going gray means bleaching your hair to strip out the color before dyeing your hair. Even when it's done by a professional, bleaching your hair means you're going to have some breakage and damage. Basically, your hair may become thinner, and you may need to cut off some length to keep it in a healthy state. To minimize the damage, Arteca suggests following the tips above.
