Gray hair that’s fierce, not frumpy

Model Cordelia Dietrich (right), 50, first started going gray when she was 15. The line of demarcation was so dramatic that she had to color it every week. “I found myself planning events around when I could get my hair colored,” says the Upper West Sider, who is repped by Iconic Focus. When she got pregnant at 43, she wanted to avoid chemicals, so she finally stopped dyeing it — and she’s never looked back. In fact, she now believes the softer color is more flattering against aging skin. “I get way more compliments now.” And as for her modeling career? “It wasn’t until I had gray hair that I really started getting work.”
