On Instagram, you will find a whole community of silver sisters who will inspire you and support you through your journey to gray hair.
These are the Gray Hair Instagram Accounts Recommended by Your Silver Sisters
I polled my Facebook followers and the women of Silver Revolution to find out which gray hair accounts they follow for inspiration, and here are the results!
I was happy to be included among the Instagrammers to follow, as I relied heavily on pictures of other women to help me when I first stopped dyeing, and I’m overjoyed to find out that I’ve inspired others as well.
On that note, if you’re looking for a place to begin, there’s nowhere better to start than with @gray.and.beyond!
Terry has beautiful long gray hair and a winning personality and she likes to experiment with color, which is helpful for those who are going gray.
Nina at @Naturally-graysful is a shining light on Instagram. Her sunny personality will win you over!
@katiegoesplatinum is my account, where I try to convey how much fun I’m having during this transition. It’s been a life-changing experience for me, and I hope you have a similarly transformative experience!
@saltandpepperpixie has some of the most beautifully composed selfies on Instagram. Marci has a great eye, and her feed is a pleasure to follow!

She has a lot to say about beauty and aging in our culture, and it’s always interesting.

Her feed is inspirational not just for young women, but for women of all ages.
Pilar of @silverlocksshining was one of my first inspirations on Instagram. Such a stunner!

i had to stop coloring my hair due to an allergy to ppd this year.
You were smart to listen to your body! PPD allergic reactions generally get worse over time and can even be life-threatening, from what I understand. Yikes!
I love reading this! Currently working on transitioning myself
Btw, why is every advertisement on here for sagging skin, jowls and wrinkles?!?!? Its crazy!
Hi, J – the ads are based on the search history on your personal computer, so if someone in your family was searching “anti-aging” beauty products (for example), or “getting older” or whatever, the ads will be tailored to that (not just on my site, but in general- all over the internet). If you were searching for patio furniture recently, you’d probably mainly be seeing patio furniture ads. The only thing I can do is block pornography, etc., ads, which I do 🙂
Hey Katie! Thanks for this awesome selection! I also shared it on my FB page (#merj_oszulni) as I try to widen the acceptance of graying women in Hungary too. This gives a great inspiration to others! Diana
thank you, Diana! It’s great to spread the word :-)!
Dear Katie,
I found your blog very helpful and inspirational! And boy do I needed. I made decision to grow my greys three weeks ago and it’s been a roller coaster of emotions. As a Hair&Fashion stylist it’s so difficult to reason it, but I feel better by day, and more sure of decision I made.
I also found a new purpose in my work as a stylist, after hitting a low point last year.
Thank you sincerely,
Jasmina
Jasmina, thank you! I’m so glad the blog has helped! And I’m glad you found a new purpose as a stylist. It’s wonderful when these breakthroughs happen!
I love your blog Katie! I follow a ton of silver sisters! Each feed is so unique! Won’t you join us in the #silversisterswearwhatyouwantchallenge @dyefree2bme? Would love to see your SMILE on the challenge page! Thanks for everything you do to support this movement of SELF LOVE and ACCEPTANCE! You are the BOMB!
Smiles,

Thanks, Susan – I haven’t joined it yet because I don’t wear any especially interesting clothes :-). But if I can think of something to wear, I’ll join.
