JOANI
JOHNSON
Johnson always dreamed of
modelling, but was considered too
short (her silver hair nearly blankets
the top half of her 164cm frame).
Fast-forward a few decades:
A video about Johnson’s hair goes
viral, and she walks her first runway
at 65. Now 68, she started going
grey in her thirties and turned to
bleach. “[My hair] was in such bad
condition,” she says, laughing. “I
met my husband, and he said, ‘You
gotta do something with that head
— it’s just not happening.’” She
loved the look of her natural grey
and hasn’t coloured her hair since.
Inspired by Johnson’s silver mane,
Violette added metallic stripes
under her eyes with nail art tape.
