[quote=Anonymous]When I got a few strands, I would just snip them out. And NO, contrary to popular belief, it didn't make them grow in worse!

Then gradually with age, I got more salt + pepper and started coloring more on a regular basis, but still let the gray show and only colored about every few months or so. Then I noticed that people, friends and strangers alike, would always look at the top of my head when conversing with me or make comments about my hair so I got self-conscious about my grays and now I color my hair every 3-4 weeks.

I would prefer to get it done professionally because it is a bummer doing it at home. It is time-consuming and I hate how the hair dye gets on the walls, the sink, tub, etc.

But since I would need to hit the salon every few weeks, my wallet would take a huge hit and I am not that rich.

I notice now when a little bit of root shows, I am about 90% gray so if I actually let it go gray, I would probably add 15 years which wouldn't make any sense. I want to enjoy what youth I can.

My natural hair color is black, and when I was younger it was tough to color it because the browns and reds I used never used to show. Now however with my hair being lighter and whiter, the good thing is that the colors actually show up much prettier.

So go figure.

I highly recommend anyone who has dark hair to color it if they are more than 30% gray.
Nothing ages you more than gray hair.
You can buy a box of hair color these days for less than ten bucks and it can prolong your youth for decades.

Only a fool would not take full advantage of this..... [/quote]
