A stunning woman strutted down a Manhattan street, silver locks flying, pointedly ignoring Jack. That woman was Cindy Joseph, a pioneer of the Grey Hair Movement.
I remember thinking that she looked confident, vibrant and like a woman who knew her own worth. It was at that moment that I first thought that growing grey might be a blessing and not a curse.
I pored over images of gorgeous silver women on Pinterest (Instagram hadn’t yet caught on as a gathering place for #silversisters to encourage and inspire one another) and pinned any images of women with similar skin tone and eye colour to me.
