<p>A co-worker, who is fifty, let her hair go gray probably in her mid-forties (she formerly had very dark brown hair). She has it cut in a Sharon Stone like short cut. I’m not kidding you - she gets more compliments on her hair - perfect strangers will approach her to tell her how much they like her hair. We were in Walmart on our lunch hour last week and a woman came up to us just to tell her how fabulous her hair looked. This happens all the time.</p>
<p>I think white or white-gray looks great on a lot of women but a more steel gray isn’t usually that attractive. A lot of it also has to do with the cut and texture of the hair. You don’t want it too old lady-ish looking and yet, too long, and you look like an aging hippie. I think a nice bob or very stylish short cut is the way to go.</p>
