«Cabelos Brancos» is Anne Kreamer's essay on identity and ageing, published by Estrela Polar in paperback (208 pages, in Portuguese).
Anne Kreamer recounts her decision to stop dyeing her hair after 25 years and analyses why grey hair is a stigma for many women. She reflects on the relationship between hair colour and female identity, the social and workplace pressures to look younger, and the contrast with the generation that championed natural beauty.
The Portuguese edition was published in 2008; the English original, Going Gray: What I Learned About Beauty, Sex, Work, Motherhood, appeared in 2007.
For readers interested in the social perception of ageing, female identity and decisions about one's own image.
