joked she would be ‘out of a job if I wasn’t blonde’ as she hosted a tutorial on how to dye your roots at home with Davina McCall on Tuesday.

The presenter, 39, who is a brand ambassador for Garnier, light-heartedly said she was relieved Davina, 53, would never be blonde again because she would ‘be out of a job’.

It comes after Holly returned to This Morning on Monday after taking two days off due to a scare with two of her ‘very poorly’ children. 

During the Instagram Live, Holly said as she prepared her hair-dye: ‘I’m not an expert but you don’t have to be.That’s the point of home colouring.

‘Had it not been for lockdown I’m not sure we would have done this on camera.

‘But now people know that we do actually do it at home.’

Davina showed her greying roots on camera and later spoke about her hair colour over the years.

She said: ‘When I went from blonde to brunette I felt a bit invisible but now I wouldn’t go back.’

To which Holly joked: ‘Good job you’re brunette and I am then blonde then. I would be out of a job if I wasn’t blonde.’

The This Morning star said she touches up her roots every three weeks to prevent any unwanted grey hairs. 

The live tutorial comes after Holly made her return to This Morning on Monday after taking two days off after a coronavirus scare with her children.

The presenter was back on screens for the ITV show with Phillip Schofield, but failed to mention her absence at the end of last week.

Over the weekend Holly posted an Instagram message, explaining that she took time off from the show because two of her children were displaying COVID-19 symptoms. 

The TV personality was replaced by Davina and Alison Hammond on Wednesday and Thursday as she awaited test results – which turned out to be negative.

On Monday’s show, Holly opened the show with her usual banter with Phil, as they counted down to Christmas. 

‘A month until Christmas eve that’s not far away is it?,’ Holly said before pointing out that 24 is a big day for her as ‘that’s the day my pet psychic said I’d have areally important day in work!That’s tomorrow!’

Taking to her Instagram Stories on Saturday, the star – who has daughter Belle, nine, and sons Harry, 11, and Chester, six, with husband Dan Baldwin – thanked fans for their concern, as she assured that she would be back to hosting on Monday.
