From honey bronde to cowboy copper and buttery blonde, the last few years have been defined by a wave of trend-led hair colours (with equally trendy names). But this year, rather than reaching for the dye, more and more women seem to be ditching it altogether, proving that silver strands are a\u00a0beauty<\/a>\u00a0statement in their own right.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Yes, it’s official:\u00a0grey hair<\/a>\u00a0is in. Of course, we’ve long had our silver-haired muses (hello,\u00a0Helen Mirren<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Andie MacDowell<\/a><\/span>). But the list is getting longer by the day.<\/p>\n

Paris Fashion Week was just treated to\u00a0Olivia Colman<\/a>\u00a0showing off glossy grey curls, while New York saw\u00a0Sarah Jessica Parker<\/a><\/span>\u00a0weave strands of silver into an oversized braid (and yes, it’s as dreamy as it sounds). Closer to home, former model\u00a0Melinda Messenger<\/a>\u00a0recently shared her journey to embracing the grey on Instagram.<\/p>\n

Long gone are the days when going grey was seen as \u2018giving up\u2019. Today, silver strands are stylish, sophisticated and completely intentional. Here, we’ve rounded up 10 celebrities who are proving just that.<\/p>\n

It was only last week that Olivia Colman unveiled her move to grey, swapping her signature dark pixie cut for glossy silver curls. Already, her new look has had something of a world tour, turning heads everywhere from red carpets to the Miu Miu runway in Paris.<\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Not only does the look prove that silver hair is firmly on trend, but it also challenges the outdated idea that long grey hair is ageing. \u2018Olivia\u2019s hair is a textbook example of why the old stereotype about long grey hair no longer holds up. Her silver is striking, but it\u2019s the combination of length, natural texture and movement that makes it feel so modern,\u2019 says\u00a0Danilo Giangreco<\/u><\/a>, session stylist and artistic ambassador for Revlon Professional UK & Ireland.<\/p>\n

Andie Macdowell has championed the grey for years<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Andie<\/a>\u00a0has long been ahead of the curve. She debuted her grey in 2021 and hasn’t looked back since. Today, her silver strands are a signature part of her beauty look, whether she’s embracing her natural texture or smoothing them into soft ghost waves.<\/p>\n

Speaking with\u00a0GH<\/em>, Andie tells us, \u2018The response has been wonderful. Occasionally I\u2019ll see someone say something like, \u201cYou look older.\u201d And I just feel so sorry for them, that they feel the need to say that. I don\u2019t have a problem with it. I\u2019m embracing being my age, so I\u2019m not trying to look younger.\u2019<\/p>\n

We couldn\u2019t have said it better ourselves.<\/p>\n

Sharon Stone proudly shows off silver roots, and looks incredible doing so<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Embracing the grey doesn’t have to mean committing to one all-over shade. Sharon Stone demonstrated exactly that when she stepped out in New York last month. Wearing her bob swept back, she showed off her grey roots with pride, meanwhile her blonde lengths were tucked neatly behind the ear.The result is a beautifully multi-tonal look, where shades of silver, chocolate and honey melt effortlessly into one another.<\/p>\n

Blonde bombshell of the 90s, Melinda Messenger recently revealed she’s found \u2018joy and freedom\u2019 in embracing the grey, sharing her jaw-dropping new look on Instagram.<\/p>\n

The former model looks as glamorous as ever, with silver at the roots, falling into deeper charcoal lengths. Together, the shades create a natural ombr\u00e9 effect that adds depth and dimension.<\/p>\n
