Is 34 too early to embrace the grey?!

34 years old with curly hair - I love my hair, it’s very ringlet curls that I’ve fought my entire life and decided to recently embrace and it feels much more “me”. I started going grey at 21 and am mousy with a lot of grey now, especially on my temples. I grew out my balayage and got my hair cut in a short bob, then stupidly decided to go back to box dye after vowing to never do it again!
I used the Garnier Auburn Hibiscus Brown twice now and it fades nicely a week or so after application - but I’m not sure if I want something a bit more natural. I keep my hair quite short so whatever I don’t like I can grow out relatively quickly.

Is 34 too early to use hair dye remover and go back to my natural grey mouse with very grey root and embrace it? It is that a bit like giving up on myself?
Should I still remove the box dye and go back to a salon?
Or crack back on with more box dye?!

Maybe see how you feel when it's grey? You can always go back. I am older than you and felt ancient when I let the grey
through, so I've gone back to highlights. But grey on some people looks amazing.

I was going to say you're too young but as you've been fighting it a while already, what shout a rose gold tint. Might be easier than trying to maintain a hair colour
