I know I am not young any more but I'd rather my appearance looked as though I was young. In some parts, my hair is gray and I don't want this to destroy how I look; so I have it dyed black. Many people suggest I have it dyed other color not black. What's your take regarding this?

@yanzalong you're welcome... but you know what? i have a sister whose hair is naturally white. she is now 57 years old. many people likes her hair as it is. she doesn't looks old but she is mistaken to be a senior citizen always..

I wouldn’t mind having gray or white hair. I used to dye my hair with whatever color I like but I’ve outgrown it already. Now I just let it be whatever the natural color hair is. I think there should be no problem with black dye. What other hair color was suggested to you?

@yanzalong then for me you did right. Black would be better.

I have some grey hairs but you can't really see them very well. I've got light brown hair and in the summer it bleaches in the sun, so I'm thinking the grey hair blends in. I tried to dye it once, just to see what it looked like with all the same colour. It was OK for a while but it didn't wash out (it was supposed to) and when the summer came I turned really blonde, so I'm not going there again. Grey hair is natural, so right now my plan is to let it come and see what it feels like. No wrinkles yet, I've got to show my age in some way :-)

It is true that having black hair (for Asian people) makes them look younger. This is the reason why they have to have it dyed black. It's my thought.

@yanzalong Grey hairs will much easier to spot in dark hair. But I'm thinking that this need to look young is a bit weird, once it would have been considered better to be old and wise :-)

I like black colour the most for the hair. This looks natural. I also have some gray hair at 35. But I never coloured it. Thinking of colouring but scared of side effects.

Some people do feel so--being afraid of side effect.

While my husband was alive he always dyed his hair and I dyed mine. Now that I am alone I decided to save my money on hair color and I am letting my hair go natural.

Yes, it's better that way letting your hair go natural. I hope I'll do that as well later.

@yanzalong Is black the hair color you grew up with? If so, then dye it black. I feel old inside and do not want my hair to do the same. So when white starts to creep in I color it to my natural brown hair color and look young on the outside.
