Sultry and sophisticated. You may not realize it but I am talking about how gray hair will soon be viewed. Gray hair used to be seen as a problem because it reminded people that were aging. Nowadays we all live much longer and the likelihood of most of us turning gray is greater because of it.

As the world veers more towards an environmentally green future, new designs and innovations are being made to accommodate the ecological views of the people. Architecture and the ways we produce energy to fuel our homes are all changing, and so will fashion. This is because fashion dictates where money flows by picking up on trends and having the vision to see above the crowd to where we will all be headed next. The money and trends of the future will be green and not gray.

Dying hair uses nasty chemicals. They are unpleasant and cannot be good for the environment, and possibly could be detrimental to health over time.

Chemicals can also leave your hair brittle and dry. This means that it is prone to breakage, as well as loosing it’s shine at the same time.

Many advert campaigns now feature the more mature model, usually with flowing locks of gray hair. These models, far from looking decrepit, look fresh, confident and even sexy. As more and more of these adverts flood the market gray will be the color to sport along with more natural, easy going hairstyles that evoke a feeling of freedom.

Whether you personally choose to dye your hair or to leave nature to have it’s way will depend on your own personal style, and whether you are turning gray in a subtle way or not. Some of us will see our hair turn into a mass of silvery white, while for others their journey into grey hair will be marred by a dramatic clashing of black and white patches.

While this look can suit some folks, others just don’t feel right this way. The most important point about whether you dye your hair or not is that what you do is your choice alone and that you are happy with the result. An empowered woman is one who feels free to make up her own mind and who will not be bamboozled into doing as she is told! However, it is important to know that it is just as fashionable and beautiful to have gray hair as it is to have hair with color.

Now we no longer think of gray as the hair color of people close to the end of life and more as the hair color of those who are mature and sophisticated gray has gained a good reputation. I myself look forward to seeing what nature has in store for my hair as I march through time, and intend to remain stylish no matter what my hair color turns out to be.
