[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can dye your hair your natural color to hid grays as well.  It isn’t necessary to go lighter. [/quote]

This gets harder and harder, more expensive and time consuming, the more grey you get. That’s why most people realize, as OP has, that it’s easier to go lighter. [/quote]

OP here.  Yes, I agree with PP's statement.  That said the other important factor is that as we age those of us with fair skin and dark hair start to look like the walking dead, crypt-keeper with that pasty skin and &quot;old face, young hair&quot; look.  Every time I see a woman or man (who has fair skin) with dark hair and they're 70+, it reminds me to be aware of my own hair color as I get older.  Right now I'm mid-50's and need to go to the salon for root touch up every 3 weeks - so the grey is creeping in fast!  Each salon visit is $90.

Going grey is not an option for me personally. Not everyone looks good grey, and I'm one of those.

thanks again! [/quote]

I get you.  I’m a medium brunette, 38.  I get a demi gloss every 6 weeks to blend grays to my natural color.  For now it works fine and is very natural looking.  But I’m also &lt;5% gray.  As more and more gray comes in and I age, this will no longer look look good.  I plan to go lighter then too.

From what I know based on salon chit chat, to go more than a shade or two lighter, you need time.  It takes multiple visits over several months to lighten hair in a way what will keep it as healthy as possible.  [/quote]
