I let the gray grow out around the time I turned 50, and I get so many compliments on the colour of my hair. I have had complete strangers walk up to me in a Wendy's, or a Beall's, and ask if I got the colour done at a hairdresser's. I think the key is to keep a youthful haircut, and keep moisturizing your skin so your face stays youthful. My hubby and adult daughter love my hair colour, and anytime I verbalize that I'm thinking of colouring it, they say "don't you dare!". In other words - I'm staying with it. I prefer to grow old gracefully.
