Author: Alex RossPublished 18th Feb 2020

Former X Factor judge Sharon Osbourne has rocked her trademark red bob hairstyle for the last two decades, but now Sharon has decided to ditch the dye and stepped out with natural white hair, looking stunning in the process!

Sharon, who is now 67-year-old, decided to strip back the colour on her hair after dying it red every single week for the past 18 years.

Hairdresser to the stars Jack Martin, shared a before and after picture of Sharon to his Instagram page, writing, 'Another great day in my career welcoming the most beautiful and elegant talk show host and entertainer @sharonosbourne for a complete transformation. Sharon has 100% white hair and she was coloring her hair once a week dark vibrant red for the past 18 years.

'She explained to me that she wanted to do this transformation long time ago but every time she attempts it ends up with a disaster. Sharon was very tired of coloring her hair once a week and she was obligated to since she is on tv almost every day hosting her popular tv show @thetalkcbs (sic)

Revealing the treatment took a massive eight hours in total, Jack continued, 'I didn’t promise Sharon anything but I told her I will try my best, it took me a total of 8 hours from start to finish to get her to a platinum blonde so she doesn’t have to be committed to coloring her hair once a week anymore.

'I had great time spending my day off with this gorgeous, humble, and sweet soul.' (sic)

Users were quick to comment on Jack's post, with many admitting how amazing they think Sharon looks. One user wrote, 'Omg!!! So amazing!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍😍', with another adding, 'Wow Sharon looks absolutely stunning! You are a master at you work. In fact she looks even younger 🙌🏻😍 x.' (sic)

A third then wrote, 'She looks so elegant!! What a beautiful transformation!' (sic)
