As soon as the first gray hair becomes visible, many women want to do everything they can to get rid of it quickly. There is colored and plucked, what the stuff holds. The graying of the mane is a natural process of aging and inevitable for almost everyone. So why not embrace gray hair like these celebrity women? We show you the most inspiring role models and reveal their beauty secrets.
These celebrity women prove that gray hair is beautiful!
Women in show business do everything they can to look as young as possible for as long as possible. Some of them might even do a little too much. Demi Moore recently shocked her fans with what appears to be a new face, while Madonna is almost unrecognizable.
Prominent women who do without beauty surgeries and filters just look wonderfully refreshing. After all, wrinkles, gray hair and other signs of aging are normal - and now they're seen more often on the red carpet. We say: Finally!
1. Andi MacDowell

They thought their mother's gray streaks were cool. "So I got into it and I love it," she said in the interview. Hairstylist Jack Martin beautified the Hollywood star's natural mane with "grey blending," he revealed in an Instagram post.
2. Birgit Schrowange
In 2017, the TV presenter Birgit Schrowange caused a stir with her undyed gray hair. Never before had the German celebrity appeared so natural. Schrowange began coloring her natural hair at the age of 30. Later she only wore a wig during performances, which she then finally took off four years ago.
As the magazine "Bunte" reports, Schrowange emphasized after her decision: "I think I look much more modern and younger than before. With George Clooney everyone says: 'Wow, he looks great with his gray temples!' I find women with gray hair at least as attractive." Bravo!
3. Jane Fonda
Until the 2020 Oscars, model and actress Jane Fonda was only known with her typically blonde short hair. At the awards ceremony, she showed a whole new side of herself, proudly sporting a gray and silver pixie cut with a burgundy evening gown.
In her memoir, Fonda writes: "My hair ruled me for so long. Maybe I was hiding behind it. The men in my life liked my hair long and blond. I was blond for so long I didn't even know what my own hair color is."
4. Jodie Foster
This actress also showed how wonderful natural gray hair looks during the Cannes Film Festival. Jodi Foster was awarded a "palm of honour" for her "brilliant artistic career, her extraordinary personality and her unobtrusive and at the same time constant commitment to the major issues of our time".
She accepted the prize accompanied by her longtime wife Alexandra Hedison, who also showed how beautiful natural aging can look.
5. Iris Apfel
The fashion icon Iris Apfel wears her hair as naturally as her opulent jewellery. Not many are such a master of self-promotion as Apfel. "The freedom to express yourself is the most important thing," the 99-year-old once said in an interview.
The idiosyncratic look of the "old fashion star" is well received by many. Even in old age, the American works as a model and advertising ambassador. She continued to tell The Guardian: "I think people like me because I'm different."
