Grey hair signifies the onset of old age, wisdom and experience. Grey hair can also add character and depth to a person's appearance. Rather than using the often seen cliche "grey in his hair", there are alternative synonyms that can be used to describe the same characteristic. Options include "silver streaks", "salt and pepper", "ashen strands", "hoary locks" or "frosty mane". These descriptive phrases still convey the same meaning of maturity and lived experience while adding a richer and more creative flair to the language used.
