Chrissy Teigen Tweeted About Her Gray Hair, and Now Other Women Are Following Suit

As was to be expected from Twitter’s resident truth bomb-dropper, Chrissy Teigen has upheld her signature no-holds-barred honesty throughout her second pregnancy. Since she and husband John Legend announced in November that they are currently expecting their second child, the supermodel/cookbook author has kept her millions of followers abreast of every pregnancy-related headache, swollen body part, and, most recently, gray hair—and the Internet is loving every second of it.

On Monday morning, she took to Twitter to share her latest development. “I have a skunk-like streak of grey hair and I’m actually very into it. My Cruella dreams are coming true!” she tweeted. In the hours since Teigen posted her ode, countless women have replied to the tweet with photos of their own gray streaks and stories about learning to embrace their grays.

“I find new grey hairs on my head every day and I LOVE THEM. I’m only 24, so I’m not sure why they’re already here but I call them my unicorn hairs. ����,” one person tweeted. “My temples are silver/white while the rest of my hair is very, very slowly getting sprinkles only. I do not mind it at all,” another added. And the replies to those replies were, surprisingly enough, equally encouraging. Other Twitter users—mainly women—replied to those who shared photos of their grays with sweet messages like, “Your hair is so pretty, wow!!!!! ��” and “You do look fantastic����������������.”

My "grey" hair is actually white and super sparkly. I hated my white hairs when there were like 2 at 25 and now at 33 there are a ton and i'm totally fine with it, though I do gasp a bit when I see one in the hairbrush.

Gray hair is expected to be one of the biggest hair trends this year. Just saying.
