White hair fashionable

Is white hair fashionable on older women? Long hair. To me it looks very old ,unattractive disdainful. I assume it is dyed or a wig. What is the purpose? Even purple hair is prettier. Your thoughts?

It's been grey hair that's been fashionable around these parts for the last few years...

Lol. Geez! Don’t hold back. Luckily I don’t care what you think but half my hair is silver. The other half is light auburn. It’s rare that I wear it down but sometimes I do. It’s butt length.

Grey hair is fashionable. Many women like to experiment with funky non hair colours and silver & white hair offers a perfect base to allow these colours to shine through.

Victor, I feel that most older women don’t give a hoot what guys like you think about their hair style, length or color. They do what they like, feels comfortable, clean, suits their lifestyle, personality, resources. With possibly a nod to what their spouse or significant other thinks.

My wife used to color her hair, but after 3 cancers, each of which involved chemotherapy, she leaves it naturally white/grey, as she does not want any chemicals on or in her body again.

Mine does the same. She has not had any cancer, but she is cautious. I fully agree with her reasoning on this and I have gotten used to it. Among other things, it might be a bit silly for her to be parading around with me in tow, a white headed 78 year old man.
I rather like it.
 
I don't know about 'fashionable' but I think that a lot of women just can't be bothered with colouring their hair ( if they ever did ) I've been dyeing my hair since I was 16yr old, the only colour that looked horrific was black, as I'm quite pale ...made me look like a Goth, long before goth became a 'thing'
I've had people say to me 'When are going to let your hair be natural" ? I just say that this is natural for me ... why should I stop just because I'm old. ( nobody looks at me anyway, these days:) )
I think silver/grey hair looks lovely if it suits them

I just buy whatever brand's on special and do it myself ...
 
I was referring to hair like Cher or singer Becky Hobbs. Okay if you like shoulder length whiteness. Long hair on ladies after a certain age looks strange to me. Especially white and gray. On men also. Of course they don't care what me and most men think about that and clothes they wear either
My hair is so so and I don't like it Salt and pepper thin and balding. I thought of a hairpiece. Expensive. Maybe it is worth it?
 
I tried to let my hair go gray but hated it. I have colored it dark auburn since I was 13 and am just used to it. Most people I know think it is my natural color. I still do not have a lot of gray coming in yet but I want to keep it auburn so have to keep coloring it. I have always wore my hair in various lengths of all one length. I recently had my hairdresser thin it out and layer it a bit around the bottom. I like it this way at just above the shoulders. A new look for me and looks good.

I think people have to go with what looks good on them and what they feel comfortable with. As we age, our hair changes, as does our ability to take care of it.

I wouldn't recommend it, obviously.
