How to say grey hair in Spanish?

• “Pelo” and “cabello” both mean “hair” in Spanish, with “pelo” being more commonly used in Latin America and “cabello” being more commonly used in Spain.
• “Gris” means “grey” in Spanish.

So when you put it all together, “grey hair” in Spanish can be translated as either “pelo gris” or “cabello gris,” depending on personal preference or regional variation.

Grey hair is a natural part of aging, and it is caused by a reduction in the amount of melanin (the pigment that gives hair its color) that the body produces. While grey hair used to be seen as a sign of old age, more and more people are embracing their natural hair color and choosing to let their grey hair grow out. In Spanish-speaking countries, grey hair is often seen as a sign of wisdom or maturity, and it is generally accepted and respected as a natural part of the aging process.
