[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am like you.  Naturally dark hair like Alyssa Milano/Monica Belucci/Salma Hayek.  (I wish I look like any of those women but I digress).

I was going dark brown and doing it at home every time.  I did go to a more medium brown (Level 5 brown, according to my salon, which still shows pretty dark) on my hair.  I have a fair but olive complexion.

my hair grows fast too, so greys show up in 4 weeks.  What I do is, color it every 8 weeks along with a haircut at a salon, but do Clariol root touch up at the top and the temples for less than $10 at home.  So I go salon, at home, salon, at home, evrey 4 weeks, to balance out the cost with the quality.

I was coloring it myself every time at home, but my hair is shoulder-length so it was getting hard to do the back and it was looking two-toned.  I don't have the money or the time to go to the salon every 4 weeks though.

Also you probably have as many grey hairs as blonds/lighter haired people, there just isn't as much contrast with other people.

I am with others who said I will dye my hair until i'm 90.  Also I'm almost 40 and got carded last night, and I feel and look about 5 years younger than I am.   Can't say I would feel or look the same with grey hair. My DH has not gotten carded since he was 28 because he has a babyface but is all grey now.  Just do it.[/quote]
