When it comes to gray locks, there are a few different colors you can incorporate into your wardrobe to really help the style pop — and bring a little extra dose of confidence to your day. For a classic and sophisticated look, opting for soft neutral and earthy tones is rarely a bad idea.
Things like blush tones and light greens also won’t clash with your light locks, so they’ll let your hair do all the talking. When you want to go a little more dramatic though, gray hair with a black or navy ensemble creates a gorgeous contrast. Want a little more color? Then opt for jewel tones. Rich colors like emerald greens, vibrant purples, and citrine yellows will bring a little color back to your life with a good dose of elegance.
And the colors you wear don’t have to stop with your clothes. When you go gray, it’s a good idea to bring a little more color into your makeup routine too, as gray is notorious for washing people out. Makeup artist Bobbi Brown told Katie Couric Media that a neutral eyeshadow makes a great base. “Then, you can experiment by adding a slightly darker shade on the lid up to the crease. A taupe or soft gray always looks great,” she shared. But that’s not the only way makeup can give you a confidence boost.
