    Starting the journey, my last roots touch was 3 weeks ago. I have a long way to go but ready for it. The roots are already showing. I am 53 and I don’t want to hurt my scalp anymore. I am not a very patient person but I want to go cold turkey and I have long brown hair that I want to keep. Please wish me good luck, I will need it 😂

      Good luck - you can do it! You might want to watch the video I did about the dye trip technique - that’s a good hybrid technique if you want to keep your length but you don’t want an obvious skunk stripe.

I was criticized by others and friends and decided to religious color. I feel done and feel I need to do this. Thank you for all the tips!

    I feel so much more relaxed now that I cut off the blonde layer. I didnt relish a short cut but I waited 9 months with no dye and the stubborn blonde layer concealed all new grey hair! I am excited to see my hair long but for now I am thrilled to feel my silver hair growing out and looking so much healthier.

    I totally get where your viewers are coming from with their list of cons. However, if you don’t care what others think you’re good to go from the start!
    Other opinions don’t bother me.

    Katie,
    I hope you are well, and all the best to you and your family.
    My experience was about 6-8 months behind you. I could not
    tolerate the dyed blond ends with the gray roots. I spent way too
    much $ on wigs...then eventually cut it into a sort bob. Three year later
    now and have medium length hair and growing. Do I love it? Yes I
    do! Never have been tempted to color my hair again. Thank you,
    once again for email that encouraged me. You were my inspiration,
    and may I say, you look lovely.
    Suzanna

    @casieblevins7253 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This might be a strange question but what does your hair look like in a side part with your underside so dark in comparison? I'd love to see it. I agree that one of the best bonuses is how unique everyone's color pattern is. It's almost like a fingerprint!

    • @KatieGoesPlatinum
      @KatieGoesPlatinum  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'll try to show that in a future video. But when I do a side part, my hair actually looks MORE white, which is not what I expected. I'd like to wear my hair back in a way to show off the dark underside, but I can't find a style that suits me :-)

    The last hair color I got was on June 2020, my transition lasted about a year and a half. I think because I was having some hair loss I used good vitamins for hair loss and medications that I believe helped me grow it faster. Best decision ever, I love it and I get lots of compliments on my hair color.

Since Nutrafol is kind of pricey, with Kerotin I get a 6 month supply for the same price of a 3 month supply of the Viviscal Professional and I think it is as good. I have both Nutrafol and Kerotin in subscription and that way you save a little. Good luck.

  • @denisewellenstein9291
    @denisewellenstein9291 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am curious about the thought of going gray (or being gray) being more difficult for introverts. I have always been an introvert, but I have also always been an artist who believes strongly in being authentic to myself. I understand the push-pull of wanting remaining invisible (undercover) while also wanting to “shine”. The thought that a shy person may not have the fortitude to thrive as a silver-haired person the way an extroverted person might makes me feel sad. I’ll have to sort out how I feel about that. In the meantime, looking forward to your videos that discuss the best ways ti handle unsolicited comments!

    • @KatieGoesPlatinum
      @KatieGoesPlatinum  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi! I certainly didn’t mean to imply that introverts might not have the fortitude. I come from a family of introverts, so I thought I had a little insight (maybe not!) into how introverts might feel about the constant unsolicited comments, since they made even me (an extrovert) uncomfortable at times. It’s just a thought I had, feel free to ignore. Xoxo

      Hi, you don’t need to use a purple shampoo, unless you’re experiencing problems with yellowing on your naturally gray or (dyed blonde) hair. But if that’s the case, the one I prefer is Bold Uniq. But there are a lot of good options out there. ❤️

    Educating myself on going gray has me thinking 1.) Gray/Silver is GORGEOUS!! I love it so much!! 2.) the fact that people are going to have their own personal issues with this (constant comments) really shows us where we're at collectively when it comes to aging. THAT is sad.

    • @KatieGoesPlatinum
      @KatieGoesPlatinum  ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree with you on both counts!
      Definitely be prepared for the comments. It is sad - and what’s really sad, is a lot of the rude comments come from other women.
      The good news is that if we can put up with that and show it doesn’t bother us, it will help the younger generation, so that maybe they won’t have to go through this too. Maybe they will be more accepting of aging, gray hair , etc!
