Women will do just about anything to improve the look of their hair. From crazy dye jobs to spunky hair cuts to unusual styles, they'll try anything once.
But what happens when your naturally beautiful hair starts to go gray? That can be a scary realization for many of us, myself included.
So what if instead of hiding your grays you embrace them instead? That's exactly what these women did and here's why they did it.
“My silver to me means embracing the aging process. It’s not for everyone and that’s totally okay."
"Letting my white shine has paralleled my winning battle with unjustified shame."
"12 months in — where I’m owning it and have a better level of confidence," she said.
"This is what makes me stand out from the crowd," said Instagram user @lukavaya_.
"I hope to encourage anyone else who has been considering embracing those silver sparkles that it’s okay if ya do and it’s okay if ya don’t," said Instagram user @melissaschellinger.
"I want to watch time paint more and more silver through my hair. It’s a slow magic but magic nonetheless," said Instagram user @baskinthegray.
"I think I'm about 2 more haircuts away from getting rid of the old dye jobs! So excited! I call this process #highhosilver," said Instagram user @puppyhsiao.
"I realized it was time to give up and let nature run its course with dignity," said Instagram user @takisha123
“Been gray a while and have completely embraced my crown of wisdom over the last couple years," she said.
"I love the journey to my natural hair, it’s so exciting to finally see my natural hair colour. My only regret is that I didn’t stop sooner!” said Instagram user @silvernaoual
"I have the salt and pepper hair that I’ve been waiting for!” said Instagram user @lisadent.
“I decided enough was enough. No more hiding behind this box of dye," said Instagram user @stagesofgrey.
"16 months later I think they are finally beginning to get used to it. I think I rock!” said Instagram user @millajewelers.
And my fiancé doesn't seem to mind it either. Hmm, should I go "grombre", too?
