    Your hair looks beautiful. In my family the women don't gray, the men do. But guess who saw their first gray at 27...I never even considered plucking. That sounds painful. I started coloring my hair in my mid thirties. By 50 I was sick of it. Ten years later I stopped dying my hair and never looked back. Gray ladies just look boss to me and I get so many compliments. My husband loved it and was so encouraging. I waited untill I retired to take the plunge and I love it. Thank you for your inspiration and beauty.

  • @maoconn7
    @maoconn7 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Going gray was one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. My grandmother had beautiful gray hair but it was my big sister who was the catalyst for my changed outlook. She told me that she was tired of fighting the inevitable and was just going to go 100% natural (she had stopped perming her hair years before and so have I). I saw how that one decision to embrace her God given beauty transformed her in such an inspiring way. She now has thick long beautiful salt and pepper hair that people compliment everywhere she goes. This made me realize that embracing my gray hair was embracing my own natural beauty and let me tell you it is LIBERATING!!!! No more dyes, damaged hair and frustration trying to fight the inevitable. Ladies if you’re on the fence as to whether you should do it I say just go for it. Your beautiful gray hair is waiting to further enhance the beautiful woman you already are.

    Your Salt & Pepper is soo beautiful on you, soo glad you embraced it! I will be 63 yrs young in November, I started greying when I was 16yrs younger ☺ I bever put straight dye in my hair I was too young to have grey was my thoughts so I put Rinses in it, and it begain to be too much through the years, when I turned 25 yrs young It was coming in pretty good and I began to like what I was seeing even though all of my friend had beautiful blk hair, I embraced my grey and love it so here I am now soon to turn 63 and I am loving it and i have very, very little strings of pepper, i have cut it all off im rocking my short Silver hair.. My mom is 85 this year and I am fully whit comepared to her even my 84 yr old sister is not even grey,... Im soo glad I didnt mess my hair up with the rinses even though the rinse is not as harsh on your hair than the rinse... I love seeing the women and the men embracing their Silver hair... You got ppl younger than me in their 20s paying for grey hair while Im rocking my Natural Silver Strands.. I love my stands,, Loving who GOD intended me to be . Now I dont even see the black strings... You Look beautiful....

This must be a sign, to go for it. I am also a hair stylist but work in administration too. So I change often, like your beloved mom, I sport my other hair too. I also love your story and the way you present. Grey hair, don't care!! I grew mine out during Covid and everyday it became more salt than pepper, but the texture changed due to pressure meds, it became extremely course and fell out. Changed meds, still not working well, but I am here. The hair stopped falling out as much and working on diet and getting the right HBP formula. God bless u. U look fabulous!!! Loved the video too.

    Thanks for sharing! Just got my natural hair cut about an inch (on top) shorter than usual! The barber got a little happy with the shears and my sides and back are lay flat shaved. My kids and their friends loves it! Husband in shock since I have been growing it out mostly on top. My sides and front are the more gray areas. I am not sure of the back as I can't see it. I have been pondering about stop coloring and decided this is the perfect time to do so. So, I will be cutting the color off as my roots grows out. No more coloring as it not only damages hair bu,t penetrates into our brain. Going to be 66 in November and 40 years married in December. I have earned every single strand of gray hair on my head and not only from age. I will embrace the wisdom that it represents, personal growth and love myself even more.

    Love your hair. I’ve been grey for four years. Love the time I have now that I’m not coloring my hair. No more putting poison on my head or going to the salon and spending a fortune. My grandmother plucked and eventually it stopped growing and she had bald patches. I consider you a late grayer. I started at 14. My cousins were born with grey patches.

    Yaaas Girl! I noticed gray strands when I was a teenager. I would pluck, cover up with the asymmetrical bob style, dye & wear wigs until my son offered to pay to have my hair done so he & his sister could see how long it was during the covid season. Now I've embraced being a Silver Diva & get more compliments more than ever. Because I like big hair, I rock my afro puff & other styles to enhance the look😉

    I went nto sandwich shop yesterday to pick up a sub, and within 15 minutes got three compliments inside and outside the store on my way to car. It kind of caught me off guard for a minute because I've been covering my hair with hair peices and scarves for about a year. A little encouragement never hurts. 😊

    I also naturally have/had black hair and can totally relate to how unhappy you felt with that extreme contrast in color just 2 weeks after dyeing. And I went blonde too! But yes, the damage. Well, you look fantastic now. Maybe it’s precisely because you’re quite young that the s&p looks so good on you. I’m in my 60s but am hoping I can rock it with a bit of red lip and style. Thanks for this!

Got tired of the transition so I chopped off a full 8 inches. People were so used to me with long black hair and I look totally different. Nothing but compliments especially from stangers. Lol I cant wait to be all white as well. I dont even call my hair gray...I call it Platinum Plus 😂 and learning to love it!!! Love yours too.

    I appreciate this post! Your gray, your silver looks great! I just colored my hair yesterday and I’m tired of using hair color approximately every two or three months - ugh! My grays have been coming in across my front edges and sometimes I find one or two strands within my hair which I pluck! oh no! When the Clairol starts fading out, I use the Quick Cover (mascara-like concealer) especially at work - my first stop is the ladies room mirror to cover up the gray. Although the gray, ah, the silver, looks beautiful; and the salt and pepper looks great on men, (no shame in their game huh), I’m in my 50s and I'm not quite ready to go gray - especially in patches; however I have been thinking about it though. I’ll have to revisit this post when I decide to let the gray, ah the silver, grow in. Thank you!

    I love your story! I turned 70 in July and I kept saying I wasn't ready over the past few years. I am so tired of coloring... so tired, but my hair isn't pretty like my late mother's was. Her hair was evenly grayed. Unfortunately, I have grayed like my paternal grandmother...all around the top and sides with mostly black in the back. I look like a skunk, so with that said, I'm still coloring. I wonder can a professional color the back to make it look like the front and the sides? Oh, well, I'll get there soon , hopefully. Your hair is beautiful. I wear a very low natural which I love. Your story is encouraging. Thank you.
