9 Celebrities With the Chicest White Hair

Over the past several months, celebrities and beauty lovers alike have been slowly but surely transitioning away from a full-glam aesthetic towards a refreshing, less-is-more approach for beauty, from makeup to skin care and, of course, hair. Whether it’s a preference for low-maintenance color trends or a shift towards a more undone look for the red carpet, the beauty world is stripping back, and we’re all for it.

While graying hair was once something to hide, the changing attitudes surrounding beauty as of late have paved the way for a gray and white hair renaissance, largely spearheaded by some of the hottest over-50 Hollywood icons. If you’re looking to fully embrace the white hair game regardless of your age, check out these chic white-headed celebs for inspiration.
