[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really liked what Andie McDowell had to say on the matter. https://www.thezoereport.com/culture/andie-macdowell-maid-gray-hair-hollywood

Maye Musk (or however she spells it). She has a clunker of a son, but I covet her hair. Glenn Close’s hair in Crooked House, too.

And I’m tired of women being the ones to reinforce the double standard that men with grey hair are silver foxes but that women with grey hair are “frumpy.” You guys are part of the problem.[/quote]

If men had shoulder length hair and it was going gray, they would look frumpy too.  But they mostly don't.  They have short hair which makes incoming gray blend well and look incorporated.

It isn't so much that it makes women look old, but transition from brown to gray takes years with longer hair.  First the brown hairs might get brassy as they lose pigment.  Then gray hairs sprout up here and there.  But they don't match the rest of the length so they stick out, both in color and quite literally.  Then as more and more grow in, you have concentrated denser area of gray on the top half, while you wait for the length to catch up with the rest of your hair.  This looks not so good.  And this is natural non-dyed hair.  Dyed hair going to full gray is another story.  [/quote]
