My first grey hair appeared in the 4th grade. By 7th grade, I had a streak. I colored my hair until I just couldn't take the pain any more. I had seriously burned my scalp and it took years with prescription shampoos to have it not burn with just water. My hair is gorgeous, dammit.It's healthy, it shines, and it doesn't feel like straw. haven't colored my hair in 14 years. I've had a few obnoxious comments, but 100s of sincere complements. I wish finding excellent products was easier, but I'm here now and hoping for more information. And it's not gray, its platinum; and only God can do it right!

I started transitioning to gray in January – my hairdresser tried to talk me out of it since I look about 10 years younger than I am. (I’m 46). I travel a lot so I spent my time at the airport looking at gray haired women to see what makes them look old, if they do look old. It is not their hair. My hairdresser has been using semi-permanent color. Now that the permanent color has grown out, we have stopped coloring. I have a chin length layered bob, stacked in the back, so the back is 100% grown out. My hair is wavy, so I can wear it curly or straight. I am excited, but anxious to see it 100% gray. So…I have been spending time at the gym, making sure my body doesn’t look 46, and I am anxiously awaiting 100% gray – so far so good!

I was born a brunette with brown eyes and colored my hair chestnut brown until about five years ago when I moved to Southern California. Then I went blond which is something I always wanted to try. It WAS more fun being blond than being a brunette and I kept it up for about four years. Finally as my silver was growing in at the roots, I decided to see what it would be like to go natural. I got all my blond cut off and had short silvery salt and pepper hair for the last four and half months. I never liked how I looked in the photos that were taken of me and when I became single I posted my photo with the salt and pepper hair on match.com. I got a few responses but not many. Finally just for the heck of it, I posted photos of me when I was blond (and tanned). Immediately I got lots of responses. Two days ago I went back to my hair stylist and had her make me blond again. I feel so much more lively now. I am 62 and learned that I am too young in spirit to go gray. (I had a lot of dark brownish grey in my natural color and it was depressing looking)…if I had been mostly silver I would have liked my natural color a lot more…I had too much pepper in my salt and pepper and that’s what didn’t look good! Until I am in my late 70s, I will probably stay a blond and try to save money somewhere other than by not coloring my hair. As for using chemicals, I am not that worried as I am healthy otherwise.

I turned 40 this year and decided to free myself of the coloring. Graying young runs in the family. I’ve had short hair all of my life (honestly, b/c it was easier to dye that way). It now looks amazing and I’m soooo happy not to be thinking about the roots, when I need to color next, how much damage I’m doing, etc. Naturally I’m medium brown and for 15 years I have been using light brown or dark ash blond. When I decided to go gray, I went to a good colorist to find out the best way to do it. She took me very light with blond and white highlights and oh, the compliments I got! It really did the trick! When my hair grew in, my natural silver just looked amazing and blended so well! Total time for this process was less than 6 mos and it was not nearly as hard as I thought it was going to be. I thought for sure I would need two professional colorings but since I have short hair I didn’t. I’m white on the sides and the top, with more salt than pepper throughout the crown. The back is pretty brown with more pepper than salt. I’m now very tempted to grow it long now that I don’t have to dye. If you’re on the fence about doing it, seriously try it. You can always go back to coloring if you don’t like the results. Oh, and I get more compliments than ever since going gray.

I’m like Carrie … I have been dying my hair since I was 15…so, about 45 years now! I use a dark ash blonde permanent hair dye, which turns my gray hair blonde, and doesn’t change the part of my hair that’s still my natural color, medium brown. It looks really great, I get compliments on it all the time (maybe because it’s also quite long, halfway to my waist, and also naturally wavy). But now I would like to get away (finally) from hair dye…because I have become aware of the chemical hazards with haircolor and I just can’t find any company who makes a blonde haircoloring product that is rated as safe for chemical hazard on the Skin Deep website. I am maybe 60% gray on top and on the sides, much less so everywhere else. Anyone have any suggestions on how I can let it go gray without cutting my hair? It has to look good while it’s growing out, as I’m a professional woman who plans on remaining in the workforce for at least another 5 years! Thanks!
