I did it. I went grey.

[Cocolapew]

I'm growing it in from shaving it,I have no bleach left in it now.
It looks different colours depending on the light.

Looks great! I shaved mine to go grey as well. It's long amd grey now and a massive relief to be off tedious dyeing treadmill.

It looks great!

Looking good! I’ve just done it too and the feeling of freedom from having regrowth is fantastic. I quite like my new silver do!

Thank you!
I'm more grey than silver on top so I'm interested in seeing what it looks like a bit longer, I usually have my hair short like this.

Coco you just have to resist bleaching it again.

I shaved my head to go grey way back in 2017. I had no inclination on how my grey would turn out when it grew. I do love being grey.

Before and after photos.

Coco Your hair is a lovely clear white colour. I envy that.

That's lovely Era, really pretty colour.
I'm silver/white at the sides and front then it gets darker towards the back.
I went grey before then tried to bleach the dark bit and ended up doing the lot again. I won't be making that mistake again!

Looks great! I'm loving this new trend for embracing grey. I'm naturally very dark but now going very grey. I'm so sick of dying the roots every couple of weeks. I'm starting to use light toners now instead to try and fade it out gradually, I'm not brave enough to go short

Brill to see you bleach free @Cocolapew Your hair looks gorgeous!!

@EraOfTheGrey Did you have a thread re: shaving your hair off?

Thank you Boo and Bees

Your hair looks stunning! I stopped dying my hair four years ago and it's been liberating. It's not the gorgeous bright white that yours is but I've never had so many compliments on my hair since I went grey!

Coco you look hot! I love it.

There must be something in the air as I posted my shaved hair to go grey naturally and am currently braving it out....

Can we have more pictures to see the variation in tones ?

Loving the grombre instagram page for inspiration.....

@PaulHollywoodsleftbollockhair can’t wait to see what it looks like as it grows, the colour is looking good already!

Thanks for the compliments. Everyone looks great.
Here's some where you can see the darker bits.

The Head shave to go Grey thread from 2017. I braved the head shave through winter and it was HARSH.

indication not inclination. First post correction.

Thanks boo - me too ! Am very happy with the colour mine is and looking forward to see how it changes as it grows. The top bit has loads more white than is showing owing to it all going forward.

I am powering through this tricky stage with hippy hair bands. I cannot do the skunk line thing and after trying to dye it grey and that turning green I BIT THE BULLET. :)

Lovely colour coco :) I think the darker bit is a lovely shade too.

Anyone got any before/after photos they wish to share or hair goals pics?

Coco the darker bits look good as a contrast. My hair colour pattern is similar, darker at the back. Like you my eyebrows are still predominately dark.

I honestly really enjoy being grey, wish I'd embraced it earlier. I was 46 in my head shave picture. What age did everyone else dump the dye?

Sorry I was 45.

Era how beautiful does your colour look? ENVIOUS here.

I'm thinking of trying to grow mine. I always have a pixie cut and never manage to grow it because I prefer it short and used to keep it short to try to lessen the damage from bleach.

I'm 50 now but have done it before about 3 years ago.
