My kids talked me into coloring my hair when it first started turning gray it was kind of a icky yellow gray, got tired of coloring it and said the heck with that and let it go. I bought the blue shampoo (does anyone remember the blue shampoo)? now it is a slivery gray and shiny with the back being a dark brown (hair is short). I have had people ask me what color of dye I use and I just laugh and tell them that I have left it up to God on the color.
