Once, Sarah Jessica Parker let her gray hair grow out, but her fans were very critical of her.

The response was considerably better when Parker colored her hair, but she firmly believed that others should be free to do as they feel comfortable.

While filming the “Sex and the City” revival, “And Just Like That,” Sarah Jessica Parker, then 56, took a break in July 2021 and went to Anton’s restaurant in New York City with Andy Cohen. At the moment, the actress was dressed in a chain necklace and a sleeveless blue top.

The celebrity wore her hair back in a braid during this period while it was still gray. Despite the fact that she was enjoying her natural hair, many people came out to judge and criticize her instead of offering support.

One Daily Mail reader commented on the appearance, saying that it wasn’t a “good look on her” and that only a select few could carry off gray hair without being “old.” Another Instagram user who noticed Parker’s gray haired appearance wrote:

Parker looked 70, and someone remarked that he hadn’t “aged well.” When a Daily Mail reader saw that the actress was just 56, they were taken aback, thinking that the star was 86 years old, and they wondered whether she was ill.

Despite being far younger than that, an admirer of the “Honeymoon in Vegas” actress commented that she didn’t appear like someone “in her seventies.” The reader attempted to continue praising her, noting that she doesn’t need to chisel her face; rather, it appears as though she has aged gracefully.

Another person claimed that even though Broderick’s wife turned 56 that year, she was older than 56 and that this was just more obvious now because she had always appeared older than her actual age. Before making the prediction that “that is about her real age,” the commenter thought she appeared to be in her eighties.

Despite the harsh criticism, Parker persevered with her natural hair for a while before appearing to give in. The actress was spotted recently looking like her former self, her hair colored.

What Did Sarah Look Like During Her Husband’s Outing, and How Did Fans React?
Parker, 58, made an appearance at the ATG Summer Party at Kensington Palace in London on September 13, 2023. The actress from “Sex and The City” looked stunning in a flowing green gown with cape-style chiffon sleeves that partially concealed her arms and a thigh-high split.

Her hair was permitted to fall lightly over her face, and metallic heels provided her an extra height boost. The dress also had a plunging neckline. Matthew Broderick, 61, her longtime spouse and fellow actor, escorted the celebrity to the event.

Even though she was seated next to Cohen, whose entire head was gray, the tabloids also brought up her gray hair.

Even though she was the center of attention due to her gorgeous appearance, some social media users focused on another aspect of her appearance. One person responded as follows to a Daily Mail piece that featured Parker’s ATG look:

“After she gets rid of grandma’s grey hair, she looks much better.”

Like the last reader, this one also thought the actress had “freshened up a little,” speculating that she “may have gotten rid of the grey hair along the hairline?” The social media user said that the hue of the garment was “fab on her.”

Parker’s hair is “much improved,” according to someone else, and she looks “so very old,” according to someone else. Parker discussed the public’s attention on aging and Hollywood’s current cosmetic surgery craze in an interview with “The Howard Stern Show” in June 2023.

The actress claimed that she didn’t feel “unpresentable” or dislike her appearance. The wife of Broderick explained that she could see why women felt under pressure to look a certain way, which is why she decided to have cosmetic surgery. She noted how numerous articles about aging gracefully appeared after the new season of “And Just Like That…” aired in 2021.

Even though she was seated next to Cohen, whose entire head was gray, the tabloids brought up her gray hair without mentioning Cohen’s. Parker was aware that women were judged for their actions, which is why she felt that women had to follow their own desires. Despite this, she had no position on the matter.
