Queen Letizia, an elegant and stylish royal. At 51 years old, her impeccable style is making headlines around the world.
In addition to her clothes, her hair has been the focus of attention in her recent appearances.
At her most recent official engagements, Princess Leonor’s mother has proudly shown off her gray hair and then surprised everyone by sporting darker hair. But what’s the story?
Queen Letizia’s tricks to hide her gray hair
According to the portal Lectura, Queen Letizia uses a trick to show her radiant hair without damaging it and to hide her gray hair.
It is an innovative technique known as “mud baths”. These baths consist of a natural and ecological tint, composed only of plants and hot water.
Pigments from plants, woods, algae and soil are mixed with hot water to create a kind of mud that is applied to clean hair, similar to a traditional hair dye.
These plants add color to the hair, making it possible to conceal or tint gray hair.
Unlike chemical dyes, mud baths strengthen and moisturize the hair.
This natural technique may explain why Queen Letizia’s gray hair appears and disappears frequently.
With each wash, the hair loses the initial pigment from the mud bath, exposing the original base.
The only drawback is that the color from the mud bath is less permanent and with each wash, the gray hair reappears. Nevertheless, it is an excellent alternative to avoid damaging the hair.
