Too much of a coward

[SenSationsMad]

I thought I was brave enough to go gray. I haven't coloured it for a while, and it's not pretty.

Having second thoughts cos I look like my aunty Maggie. I'm 39, (since yesterday )

So, I'm letting you all know, that I'm going back to brown tomorrow. I'll let you know how it turns out..........

Ooo Happy Birthday for yesterday!

I was thinking about exactly the same today too, but i'm 9 years older then you, and i have no idea how grey i actually am (because i've been dying it for soooo long) but i can periodically see a fair few of the buggers at the roots.

I guess we'll have to bite the bullet sometime (me sooner then you that's for sure).. but you can carry it off for a good few years yet, so yes i completely agree - go back to brown!

The grey thing will have to happen one day, but not just yet eh?

I've got about 4 inches of real colour, which is according to the hairdresser 20% grey. My maths must be up the spout - looks like more to me.

On sunshiney days it looks great and I feel fine with it. On dull days thats exactly how I feel with it.

I've got an emergency dye in the cupboard in case I crack one day but I'm fighting the urge for the moment. If I can get through the winter then I'll feel I've achieved.

Whenever I see someone with nice grey hair I compliment them. Its my pathetic attempt to manipulate karma.

oh no I don't want to read this as I was thinking of trying the au natruelle greying colour & not dying mine anymore,am mid 40s & thought I might give it a go

but am now scared that others have tried & no likey

I've done it and feel much much better! Feel shallow for saying it but there you go!

I will now commit to colour my hair, at home, every four/five weeks (again) until whenever.

Now if I could only commit to losing 3 stone I'd be where I want to be

Off now to start a thread on education, where the root of my white hair lies.......

Congratulations SSM

Whitecat I bow in admiration to your willpower!

Maybe the rest of us should reconvene in say 5 years, and start a support thread.. I could start knitting an assortment of bobble hats tomorrow in preparation

If I was a fan of LOL , I'd LOL, but I'm not so
