I am letting it to. I am 48 and decided to stop coloring. My hair naturally is a dark ash blonde so now it looks about 25% lighter those marvelous grays act like an instant highlighter. Its not who I am its only hair. I earned every single one of those gray hairs. I had to laugh at the color it so the little one wouldnt think you were old. My own children taught me they all think we are OLD next to them. At 30 yrs old my 6 yr old son asked me if they had cars back when I was a kid (I was born in 1961). My daughter asked me when I was 34 and she was about 5.. Momma am I going to have a fuzzy face when I grow OLD LIKE YOU? Marvelous. So you are OLD off the starting line with someone who is only a handful of years.
