I really hate that yellowed look - to me its the same as yellow teeth. Sorry, hope I haven't offended anyone.
I hope to love my natural hair.

My questions to all of you is:
1. Is there a way of getting through this growth period gracefully?
2. Is there a rinse to make my grey hair sparkle, rather than be dull? I hate the old and tired look. I want to have nice hair that looks and is, healthy, but I don't think I am going to have that gorgeous vibrant grey that is so pretty.
Help?
1. Not really, unless you wear a hat! When I let my grey grow out, I got my hair cut short and frequently - so it wasn't too bad.
2. My hairdresser recommends a purple shampoo, specially formulated for grey hair. It helps keep it white, not yellow, and really brings out the shine.
Keep in mind that the grey you now have is your "natural" colour and, once you get used to it, you'll realize that it's really pretty gorgeous after all. And if you want to really funky get a coloured streak put in it like I did - royal blue goes beautifully with grey!
