I stopped coloring my hair about 9 months ago--as I let the gray grow in, I had it cut very short. To my surprise, it came in silvery-white and VERY curly. I just wash it--towel dry--and that's it. I keep it short now so it curls naturally.

colored for a long time but got tired of looking like Pepe LaPew (white stripe down middle of head) so went gray and love it - feel I deaserve every one of them!

yup, been this way for a long time, went gray in my early 30's in 1995 i had brain surgery and had to let my hair go natural, my DH said he loved my silver, so I never colored it again.

me too! I have earned every one of them
I would rather spend money on other things than hair colouring

I have......

I have a one inch strip of grey off the top side of my head. It hangs to the right and it the length of my hair. I kinda like the Bride of Frankenstein look.

And a few long strands the length of my hair all over

Ther is a time and place for everything. Dyed my hair a few times when it felt right. Now thinking of streaking it either aubern or ?. Or maybe not due to the financial situation.

I caved, after 4 months of 'letting it go' I went back to the hair salon. Maybe when I turn 60 in 3 years....maybe.

Tried it once - I'm actually salt-and-pepper. Saw a picture of myself and thought it made me look 10 years older - went right back to the bottle!
