I think you should ask her. Women spend more time on their appearance not because of vanity but because society judges them a lot more harshly than men. My wife generally hits her hair with henna every six months or so and it's mostly because if she doesn't, the first thing people notice about her is the gray. She'd actually be at an advantage - most of her competition is older than her - but because gray is so unusual in anyone who isn't 65 or older, the act of not dying it becomes a socially-aberrant statement.
