Salma Hayek Reveals Her Natural Hair, Sends Fans Into a Frenzy
The actress is a famous natural ageing advocate.
Hollywood is notorious for demanding a great deal from women. No wrinkles, no grey hair, low body fat – these used to be the standards every starlet was expected to meet to make her way in the industry. Fortunately, things have shifted significantly towards authenticity in the past few decades. Now, actresses and musicians are encouraged to look natural.
And yet, not many actresses dare to embrace their flaws, so jaws drop when an A-lister does it. In this sense, Salma Hayek is a genuine trailblazer.
The world-famous actress recently posted a picture of herself on Instagram without first getting her hair done. Hayek's gorgeous yet unruly hair stunned her fans with natural waves that some spend hours and fortunes to obtain. 'Thank God it’s Friday!' Salma joked in the caption and we can only agree.
However amusing the joke was, the fans' attention was focused on Hayek's stunning wavy hair. Her face, without a trace of makeup, also looked fresh and gorgeous. It is no wonder the actress's followers were smitten with the image.
Salma Hayek is also a well-known advocate of natural aging. She recently uploaded another post, captioned: 'Me waking up and counting how many white hairs and wrinkles crashed the party this morning,' looking as beautiful as ever.
Hayek's been open about her stance on natural ageing for years. In a 2017 interview for the New York Times, the actress argued people should embrace ageing with everything it brings with it, including grey hair. She believes that, in the grand scheme of things, we've got too little time on this planet as it is to worry about such trivial matters.
'It’s my natural colour, and it’s my natural white hairs. One of the reasons I don’t dye my hair is because I don’t have the patience to sit through it. I don’t want to spend what’s left of my youth pretending I’m younger and then not enjoying life,' Hayek told the outlet.
Wavy or not, grey, white or dyed, Salma Hayek's hair is dazzling, and so is she.
