Men: What are your honest thoughts on women embracing their natural grey hair—even in their 30s or 40s?

r/

There’s a growing movement of women choosing to stop dyeing their hair and go grey—some as early as their 30s and 40s. Whether it’s salt and pepper or full-on silver, many are embracing the natural process instead of covering it up.

Personally, I believe women should feel empowered to do what makes them feel confident and comfortable. Our bodies, our hair—our choice.

That said, I’m curious how men genuinely feel about this trend. Do you find it attractive when a woman confidently rocks her natural grey? Do you view it differently depending on age or presentation? Does it signal something deeper to you, like confidence or wisdom?

This isn’t a debate about whether women should or shouldn’t—we’re past that. Just wondering how this choice is perceived by men from a preference standpoint.

Please keep responses respectful—this is about curiosity and not judgment.

    I love it. My wife hates it.

    So she dyes it.

    Don’t really care, honestly.

    Given the wide spectrum of ridiculous coloring out there right now, grey/white don’t seem outlandish enough to form any kind of opinions in my man brain.

    I’m not attracted to women with gray hair (I’m sure there are exceptions)

    Naturally aging will always be more attractive to me than artificially trying to look young.

    Our greys remind us that the past is real

    Natural is always better.

    Whether or not I find it attractive would be on an individual basis, but in the context of our Kardashian influenced world, with resulting prevalence of cosmetic surgery abominations, without fail I’ll admire their willingness to age naturally with grace, and view it as a positive personality trait.

    It seems to be that we’re all getting greyer a lot younger these days. Anyone who is bothered better get used to it.

    As a guy who watched his Dad dye his hair for years and thinking that looked like a major pain in the ass, I decided early on and was never going to do that. If it goes grey it does.
    It doesn’t bother me. There are a ton of attractive women with greying hair…
