Grey Hair

It's up to you you can have or wear whatever you like or makes you happy

Several summers ago, my hair went from it's natural red hue to white. It happened very fast, it just...turned white. My Dad's did that too, but he was a lot younger than I was when it happened. I made the decision not to color it. One big reason is that I am allergic to so many chemicals, and chemicals are what hair color is made of. My hair is very fine, like baby hair, so I didn't want to turn it in to a broken up mess. The other reason was...who was I fooling, anyway, if I colored it? Me? Not hardly. Everyone knew my hair had turned white quickly. But the biggest reason was what a friend did. Her hair turned gray and she colored it bright blonde. (She had dark blonde hair before it turned). She is 66 years old, and at that age of course she has a 66 year old face. It just didn't go with bright blonde hair that you would think of a young woman having. She doesn't want to look old. But now she does, because her hair just doesn't go with her face. I am not saying that is the case for everyone, but it certainly is for her.

I think it's completely natural to have mixed feelings about letting your hair go grey. It's a personal choice that ultimately comes down to what makes you feel comfortable and confident. Some people embrace their grey hair as a symbol of wisdom and experience, while others prefer to maintain their natural color or dye their hair. I am soon turning 40 and seeing some strands of white hair. At first, I was upset with it but I don't want to dye my hair because I have heard that doing it has its disadvantages so I just let those white strands.

My hair are gray, with still some dark brown strikes, it looks good, it seems like I dyed but it's my natural color.

I find it odd that young ladies who are in the sports world dye their silver since they are fans of the Storm character of the X Men.

The first thing I did when I retired on disability was let my hair grow out. Not having to use that awful dye was great; and my hair is a very silvery gray which I like. Have a good day and holiday.

I have allowed my hair to go grey. All sorts of grey and silver. I like it. I am letting it grow long, which is contrary to what docile old ladies do, but it is happening.

I think color with a mixture of grey is nice. Mine is salt and pepper.

I have the salt and pepper look . . . I never hid the greys and now it's just that way. I don't have to deal with or pay for coloring - never have to worry about "roots" - I'm pretty happy I don't have to think about stuff like that. I do think the right haircut/style helps with the overall look.

Do what ever you want with your hair. The decision is yours.

I let mine go when I was in my 40s. By then it was getting mostly grey

After I moved to Florida I decided to not spend money on hair color anymore, I have my mom's and grandma's genes so I figured my hair would not go gray but white, I have not been coloring my hair now for six years and I have a white spot in my bangs but the rest of my hair has become the mousy brown color of my childhood, You have to deiced how you would like it and like for me perhaps it won't go gray all at once, I love the idea of looking similar to Grandmama Addams I have always been a little on the unusual side

My Mom was probably in her 80s before she quit dying her hair brown-red and let it go. Still had it permed about twice a month. I'm not fashion conscious. IF my hair doesn't totally thin out to baldness I will let it go and have let it go into streaks of white gray.

I went grey very young and never coloured it.

I'm only 44. But I had thought about getting a silver hair dye, but I haven't yet.
