I'll be 50 next year, and while I'm not in "model shape," I look fine and I try to exercise.
I don't understand this desperate need to regain youth. I can only imagine that women try to recapture that moment in time when they really "blossomed."
Get over it.
- proud of my age and of my gray hair!
50 is way too young to accept gray hair!
No, it's not. It's healthy and the shades - a light gray sprinkled with white (white!) - are incredible! I love it. I don't mind getting older, and I'm the mom of two young kids - 11 and 7.
I'm curious how long you've been lightening your hair. If you started at 13, how old are you now?
It's all good, ladies. I can't even tell you to stop being selfish b/c these quick fixes AREN'T about you. They're all about societal pressures. My daughter loves my hair, and once, when I teased her and said I'd color it, she laughed and said, "You'd look horrible with fake color."
Love yourself and be secure role models for your kids. I don't feel old, and my friends range in age from 80 (Mom) to 30. No friend is judging me. And anyone who does - "50 is way too young to accept gray hair." - is not worth my time.
