I am 50 and dye my hair, my mom dyed her hair till the day she died at 84, I started going grey at 25 took after my mom and her side of the family. I dye it every 3-4 weeks. I feel old when the gray starts showing, I am married too, and I want to look good for me...lol. This spring I will try putting highlights . I normally dye my hair a reddish brown, this time I went dr. brown. I try all shades of browns and reds..lol

I've been coloring my hair for the past few months just to cover the gray. I got a glimpse of myself one day out in the sun and went OMG! Mixed with my normal hair color (dark blonde/light brown), it looked awful and mousey.
I saw my fav aunt recently and loved her pure silvery white hair... reminded me of my Dads... now if mine goes that direction I won't mind letting it be. What I can't tolerate is the mousey gray that sucks all the life out of your face. LOL

I talked with my hairdresser about letting my hair go completely gray this morning when I got my color and cut. She said I would just have to let it grow out.
That would look horrible. She said you really can't color it gray. I don't want it to be half gray and half "what ever color this is." There has got to be a better way. Anyone have any suggestions?

I don't understand why you couldn't color it gray. Seems like they could do any color.
A friend of mine has her hair dresser do a reverse frost. Her hair is all gray so she has color foiled in. Maybe your hairdresser could foil in a little color, or even use a frosting cap, instead of an overall color to slowly transition you to gray.
