Kate Moss Debuts Intentionally Gray Hair

Here at StyleList we've been following the strange mini-trend of young women going gray on purpose.

Now Kate Moss has gone to the gray side! Moss was spotted last night at the Longchamp party (to launch her signature collection Kate Moss for Longchamp) with silver streaks running through her blonde hair (Elle UK confirms the trendy graylights), chopped and blown into a messy-glam long bob.

The look was in line with the silver streaks at Chanel Couture Spring 2010 earlier this week.

Giles Deacon and Gareth Pugh both showed matte gray hair for their Spring 2010 shows, and girl-about-London Pixie Geldof has worn the look for a few months now.

Also at the Paris Couture shows, 13 year old blogger Tavi is making a statement in the front rows with her newly blue-gray hair, which she's chronicaled on her blog, The New Girl in Town, and is in line with the grayed-out watercolor tones we saw on the spring runway at Proenza Schouler and on Ashley Olsen in December.

Now, we're all for children and 20-somethings running with this trend, and love its originality. But we're wondering if it's appropriate for Moss, who recently celebrated her 36th birthday? If you already have a natural few grays, are you too old to wear this style?

Tell us what you think, leave a comment below!

I colored my hair for years changing from one shade to the next and decided to let it go natural to find I have the prettiest combination
of silver, gray and white. I love it and I get nice comments. My hair seems thicker and shiny and healthy now. I realised the color of my hair has nothing to do with who I am.
Thanks to all those woman in the spotlight who are brave enough to just be their natural selves.
It sets a good example of what's really important. Too many young girls are destroying thier natural beauty thinking "if I only had bigger boobs" or "a smaller nose" Real beauty starts from the inside and glows on the outside.
Add a good style and the right shades for the glam!

I am a black woman, 48, with a young face. I've been coloring my hair for years and have recently begun to let the gray grow out. Each day I change my mind about coloring it--back and forth--all the time. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I don't. I'm liking it better since the gray has grown out over an inch now. It surrounds my face and actually brightens my face.

With a 30th high school reunion coming up, I want to still look youthful... but sexy and mature... and I think the gray will set me apart from all the rest who continue to color their hair.

Hopefully when I go to the salon on future visits, I'll be in my "loving the gray" mode. :)

I've decided to 'go with the flow' and let my hair go silver as well. I am only 42 and the idea of dyeing my hair for the next number of decades seems like a big waist of money and horrible for the enviornment as well as my body! Imagine how much less waste there would be if all of those boxes and plastic bottles weren't in our land fills! I wish more women would be role models of natural beauty and health to our children! Women look great with their silver hair!

Love my "silver" hair. I've received more compliments than I ever would have imagined. I'm 52, and act 32. You can wear bright clothing or soft colors, and they all look good. I'm with ya! The best part is LESS makeup!!

I have been letting my grey out for about 3 years now. I love
the look, however I don't have enough of it. I am 69 yrs old and I want MORE gray. I have dark brown hair. Is there a way I can
make more of my hair gray? Surely there is some sort of process that can do it. I LOVE the look. It is so elegant. Dyed hair on older women never looks natural and forget about all
the 60+ women with strawberry blonde locks. Not for me.
HELP

being an ancient crone, i can tell you that my bf and i dyed our hair white back in the 60's...we weren't even 18 yet. then we put different coloured rinses in our hair, a different one every week, my hair has been every colour known to man and not natural for hair but it was pretty cool. now my hair is very light blonde with caramel and often maroon or blue or pink streaks and some white , which is the only natural one. styles just go round and round in circles, don't know why everybody thinks that it is new everytime it comes back!

Last time I had my hair colored I asked my stylist to ADD more white since it wasn't turning white naturally fast enough for me! And it looks terrific! It has brightened up my entire face and I get compliments all the time. Not bad for a 60+ year old!

I always had naturally streaked blonde/dark blonde hair, and was always accused of highlighting my hair. Now that I am getting grey streaks too (50+) a hairdresser told me she could restore my hair to my natural color. I told her that it was my natural color and she didn't believe me. It makes my blonde look lighter. I think any age can still have long hair as long as it is thick and healthy. I refuse to cut my hair and wear frumpy clothes just because I am aging. I am still in shape! Jeans, tennis shoes and t-shirts are my norm (but not for the office). Be yourself and be proud of who you are.

Grey is not as bad as a brain tumor and/or other health problems that come along with chemically treated hair. Black hair products are the worst.

I love my salt and pepper gray natural look. I colored and permed it for years. When I stopped several years ago, I found the most beautiful salt and pepper look amongst the dark brown. It is beautiful still at almost 70 and it looks super with aqua, black, or teal swimwear especially with a tan.

KM's hair looks terrible. In fact, she doesn't look so good at all. Too much partying. First investment should be a comb. If she wants grey hair, have it colored to blend in, letting it grow out looks nasty. Grey hair can look beautiful, this is not the case here. Jamie Lee Curtis' hair looks great.

My hair is silver and shining. Has been for years and it is the best color with my skin and pale blue eyes. Ladies break the chains and don't be slave to coloring.

Kate should wait for the grey hair she wants, what she has looks terrible. Jamie's is beautiful.
