19 Celebrities With Gray Hair That Have Never Looked Better

Allison Janney

You may have noticed that Mom star Allison Janney has ditched her lengthy brunette strands for a light, silver/blonde look as of late, and we can’t get enough. A few years ago on The Ellen Show, the now 64-year-old got real about how her short new ‘do resulted from extension maintenance taking up too much time in her day-to-day life, and while she opts for a super sheer blonde look nowadays, the actress continuously lets her natural grays shine through.

Actress and model Andie MacDowell has always been known for her gorgeous mane of full curls, and while she rocked a deep brown for years, the 65-year-old has now fully embraced her natural gray, and the silver strands perfectly compliment her iconic curls.

Jamie Lee Curtis

Once known for her striking blonde pixie, Everything, Everywhere, All At Once star Jamie Lee Curtis has since ditched the dye and is letting her gray strands take center stage. A few years back, the star told Britain’s ITV about how she’s become “an advocate for natural beauty” after some hair-frying experiences, and it’s safe to say that Curtis is rocking the natural beauty look.

Back in 2022, Parker told Allure that she was shocked by the amount of people applauding her “bravery” for showing her grays.

Nope. Too much.”

Meryl Streep

The queen of Hollywood herself, Meryl Streep, could convince us to do pretty much anything, including go gray.
