Her hairdresser Jack Martin, shared a before and after picture of Sharon, and wrote on Instagram, "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 colouring her hair once a week dark vibrant red for the past 18 years.

"She explained to me that she wanted to do this transformation a long time ago but every time she attempts it ends up with a disaster."

He went on to say, "Sharon was very tired of colouring her hair once a week and she was obligated to since she is on tv almost every day hosting her popular tv show @thetalkcbs.

"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 colouring her hair once a week anymore.

"I had great time spending my day off with this gorgeous, humble, and sweet soul."
