Some people loathe gray, especially when riddled across a hairline. But from a different perspective, grayโs gorgeous. Take George Clooney, for example. Heโs been rocking the โsilver foxโ title for years. Seriously, heโs a silver-haired heartthrob. Even Steve Carellโs rocking the gray now.
As the Grateful Dead so eloquently stated in their 1987 hit โTouch of Grey,โ
โEvery silver liningโs got a touch of grey.โ
Jack Martin, a California hair stylist, has a somewhat unconventional take on gray. Instead of running from it, he embraces the gray.
