With her silky straightened locks, we couldn't curate a round-up of grey-hair celebs and not include Diane Keaton. The actress looked beyond chic with her pearly tresses which she often accentuated with some striking headwear.

Queen Letizia of Spain
Queen Letizia of Spain is paving the way for greying royals. The ever-sophisticated Spaniard has stayed clear of the hair dye, instead letting her silver strands peak through her chocolate locks.
