18 Women Who Got Tired of Dyes and Now Proudly Show Their Gray Hair

Not so many years ago, having gray hair was a symbol of aging and not much more. But times have changed, and today gray hair is vindicated and shown with pride. Many women wear their gray hair with a lot of self-respect and look amazing.

At Bright Side, we love that everyone shows themselves as they are, so let’s hear it for these women.

1. “Turning 47 soon and refusing to dye my gray hairs”

2. “I’ve had gray streaks since I was a child, but I’m finally letting them shine at 30. 4 months of growth so far!”

3. “Thank you all for sharing your magic and beauty to help me feel magical and beautiful!”

4. “Growing out my gray — I kind of like it.”

7. “I’m 28 years old, but I’d wager that about 1/6 or 1/5 of my hair is entirely white (not gray...white). It makes me feel very mystical.”

8. “It’s my birthday, and my grey hair is showing more than ever.”
