So at 28 and after two babies I've got grey streak and just at a loss! Was a natural dark blonde before dying my hair dark brown for past 10 years! Tried to get it blonde last year and stopped at this mess and had to get it all cut off!

At a loss! Dh wants me to go back dark but I'm ageing and with grey and light eyebrows it's quite hard to maintain dark hair especially with bright blonde roots come through!

Any help/advice would be appreciated!

no advice but just an opinion: you look healthy, young and beautiful, and so does your hair.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 11/07/2021 00:14

You look young and vibrant and bonny and are nobbut a bairn.

Rejoice in your loveliness. Any greys are merely sparkles.

What @SheldonesqueTheBstard said.

OP - im the same age as you. You shouldn't be thinking too much about 'ageing'. I just got my hair and now resemble Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson's character) - or so I like to think Grin

Do whatever you want to it. The blonde highlights are nice. I can tell you that no bloke's opinion would decide what I did with my hair...

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 11/07/2021 00:26

I just bloody knew you were glamorous maireas 😘

Love, madam mim (yes really I am!) x

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 11/07/2021 00:28

Oops - maria. Got you muddled with my mate!

I’m tired and haven’t slept for about 36 hours…. I hadn’t even noticed the age bit. 😳

As you were!

But bet you look amazing!!!! 🤗

Frownette · 11/07/2021 00:35

36 hours?! Aren't you seeing things?

OP you just look gorgeous so no advice sorry

IdblowJonSnow · 11/07/2021 00:42

You look lovely and I cant see any greys.
I think you'd probably suit fairer hair than darker - and agree it sounds like it would be high maintenance, so tell your partner to wind his neck in! Wink

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 11/07/2021 00:45

frownette. Not yet but my reading skills seem to be somewhat diminished!

Still doesn’t change what I said about you OP. I can’t give advice though either as I think you are beautiful as you are. Smile

rainsometimes · 11/07/2021 00:56

Thank you all for your kind comments! Made me smile. Put on 4 stone over the last two years so I guess that needs more attention than hair but these are the few compliments I've received In a very long time DaffodilBlushSmile

My dear, you’ve grown two babies. Some extra curves are a small price to pay.

Have a bit of a twirl and a preen. Wink

Monty27 · 11/07/2021 01:26

You're gorgeous!
What about some highlights?

Monty27 · 11/07/2021 01:28

And there's eyebrow dye that takes a few minutes. Lucky you ☺️

QueenJulian · 11/07/2021 01:31

Your hair looks gorgeous and that colour really suits you. You don’t look old at all!! It will be much easier to blend that little bit of grey in with blonde hair rather than dark hair so I’d keep it blonde.

Frownette · 11/07/2021 01:36

As @SheldonesqueTheBstard says it is just a bit of sparkle. Perhaps go back to your natural colour as it blends in better, boyfriend be damned. He's not the one who has to put chemicals on his head.

Congrats on babies!

On a side note Sheldon I think 48+ hours was my longest, I definitely had to whip around quickly as I thought I'd seen a spider out of the corner of my eye. Hope you get some rest soon!!

WaltzingBetty · 11/07/2021 08:18

The colour suits you so I'd keep it natural - it will be much easier to maintain.

Speak to you hairdresser about balayage to blend through the greys (not foil highlights where your roots will need more upkeep)

Miseryisabutterfly · 11/07/2021 09:36

You are so pretty op, you look lovely as you are. I wouldn’t worry about your hair.
