Christie Brinkley is staying blond despite ‘pressure’ to ‘go gray’
At 69 years old, Christie Brinkley is still stunning and still a major player in the fashion industry. Recently, the supermodel spoke out about her iconic hair and the decision to keep coloring it despite briefly sporting gray roots. Brinkley chatted with People as she attended a senior dog adoption event last week, where she serves as an ambassador for Pet Life Unlimited.
“If you don’t go gray, some people really make a big deal about it,” said Brinkley about the double standard that exists when it comes to hair coloring. “Oh, that’s so disappointing. She’s not owning it. She’s trying to do something other than who she is.” But Brinkley stood firm on her stance, saying, “It’s like, no. I believe firmly that if there’s something bothering you, take care of it.”
The Bellissima Wine entrepreneur shared some Instagram photos of her gray roots earlier this year, but she also said she was on the fence about her look. “The second you see gray hair, it raises the question, just like when you cut bangs… to keep or not to keep?” she wrote at the time. “Thank goodness both are just a personal preference or a fun change of pace.” The verdict was still out as to whether she’d dye it back, but Brinkley eventually decided that blond worked best for her.
While speaking with People, Brinkley also expressed her optimism about turning 70 next February. “I feel like the number doesn’t match my spirit, so I may as well just keep spiriting on,” she said. “I feel good. I feel strong.”
