Hilarie Burton Says 'Going Gray Early' Has 'Been A RELIEF'

Hilarie Burton Morgan is loving her hair exactly as is! When the "One Tree Hill" alum joined the latest episode of "The View," she opened up about embracing her gray tresses. Hilarie said she was in the midst of phasing out her blonde color and going totally gray, and she explained her mindset behind it. "It's a weird thing when you were a teen drama actress, and the expectation to be 17 forever is out there. And I didn't necessarily like my younger years. I felt- I dealt with some dark stuff in my younger years. So this idea that you can level up and get to a place where you're the salty one in the room was exciting to me. My heroes were Bea Arthur and Ruth Gordon and Betty White. Like, that's who I wanted to be. And so going gray early has been a relief," she said.

I love, love, love her gray!!! She is a stunning woman and the gray accentuates that! She’s lucky though.. I’ve been wanting to let my hair go, but I have the random white pieces… COME IN ALREADY! 😂

I would say 42 is VERY early to go gray but she looks absolutely gorgeous

It’s easy to let your hair go grey when your face is already flawless and youthful

[@lolabrini3758]

the gray makes her eyes pop, and her complexion glow. Im not sure why. But it suits her perfectly to a T

I’m 38 so those grays are coming in but I take it as a blessing that I’m able to even get to this point. So many don’t get the chance.

I embrace my silver/gray hair. My hair started turning to that color in my 40’s and I love how I look. Kudos to Hilare Burton Morgan.

She can dye her hair Full Silver and she would look phenomenal with it. She is super gorgeous.
