Jilly is transformed!
Poll Age (before makeover) = 51
Poll Age (after makeover) = 30
Real Age = 31
Two years ago, morbidly obese Jilly lost a colossal 11 stone following a gastric bypass. But now size 8 Jilly is left swamped in the skin of her former size 28 body. Droopy boobs, down from a 50EE to -AA, a bum and thighs like Austrian blinds, bingo wings and a crumpled mass of hanging skin where her stomach used to be have left Jilly feeling trapped in an ageing shell. Jilly won't even wear a bikini in her back garden, but now she has to get her kit off on a beach in the Canaries for 100 sunbathers to scrutinise her body and judge her age. Read on to find out more about Jilly’s transformation.

Andrew Barton, Stylist at Saks Hair & Beauty
- Jilly’s hair was in such terrible condition due to excess bleaching and chemical straightening that Andrew took the unusual step of cutting Jilly’s hair before it was coloured.
- This meant Andrew was able to save as much of the hair as possible and cut it into more flattering layers, chopping it into a flattering bob with the existing colour toning it down to a more sophisticated blonde.
- Andrew used an intensive conditioning treatment to restore some shine to Jilly’s tired locks and to fight against her natural frizz
- Despite being a natural red head Jilly refused to go back to her roots. Jilly’s one tone brassy blonde hair was ag4ing her so Andrew worked in 3 shades of blonde to create a more sophisticated grown up look for Jilly.
- As Jilly has naturally frizzy hair Andrew blow dried her hair straight to create a sleek groomed look that still has plenty of volume.
