[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I am also 41 and was thinking about going fully silver. But I tried it in one of those hair color aps and it did not flatter me. Blue gray look better with my skin but does not look natural. I decided on brown instead.

I agree with PP that the women who pull it off are slender; I'd add that they tend to have straight hair or very orderly curls. I am plump with extravagant curls and silver hair just makes me look like a good natured witch.[/quote]

This made me laugh out loud because I can totally picture it. Same for me, unfortunately. [/quote]

I’m plump and have a kind face and a head of shoulder length gray curls. I do laugh that some days I look like a good natured witch. But it can also look dramatic, or project expertise at work depending on how I style it and what I wear. I’m just totally done with trying to care about societal norms of female beauty- they alway struck me as BS, but now I’m totally over it. So I make myself happy with my hair and clothes, and my husband seems to like me fine. It’s not like he’s fussing about whether I like his newly shaved head. I do, for the record, and he likes his good natured witch.[/quote]
