Inspired by Meryl Streep, going for an updo is also a sophisticated way to show off your grey locks. The key to successfully donning an updo is to focus on building up volume for a more youthful look.

This updo hairstyle will give your gray hair more body and prevent it from looking too flat. Especially because flat hair can really age you so much as well.

Grey Shaggy Cut
