    I love the different shades of silver in your hair. It is absolutely beautiful

    We definitely need to normalize grey hair (as well as any other signs of ageing). Grey and silver hair is so beautiful and completely normal. Some people grow grey hair sooner than others, some really late or only grow strands of grey hair. It's a natural thing to happen❤

      I knew a black family that had grey hair very early in age, even their teens had grey hair, i used to find it beautiful and mesmerizing, especially with their younger children. And I have a white coworker who has white turning blue gorgeous hair too.

    Anyone thinking about ditching dye, seriously just try it!
    It looks stunning. I stopped using dye 7 years ago when I was 23 and had a fair few greys. I did it so I could let it transition much more subtly and I'm glad I did. 7 years later at 30 I have a ton of greys, even a couple of white stripes now and it's actually the happiest I've ever been with it. It's a gorgeous colour, I've always had almost black hair and blonde never suited me, but this grey/white is perfect and I don't look any older at all, that's a myth.
    My husband is also 28 and going grey like me, it's nice to literally see we are growing older together and sharing life ♥️.

    I feel like me seing your video was meant to be, I was born with grey hair. But they started showing a lot when I was 10 and they started bothering me when I was 13 so I started dying my hair to hide the grey. Now I’m 18 I’m slowly accepting my grey hair and finding it beautiful.
    And your video is making me accepting more.

    Sam, you saved the day & stopped the tears... I've given up coloring but today I looked at my hair & just cried. It doesn't style or look pretty the way it used to. I did the big chop from almost waist length to a tapered cut like you did, now it's Bob length... Your video encouraged me to hold tight, this too will change. I might have to watch it a few times today...lol

      @@Ap-mh4lc You can't buy boxed henna. Order online from an all natural place that does not add salts and chemicals. Get just the pure henna (only comes in red from nature, other "henna" colors are actually other plants, not henna) and add pure indigo (only comes in black/purple) to get different shades of black and brown. You have to mix the henna with something acidic (like orange juice or red wine) and let it sit overnight so the plant releases the color. Henna from Yemen covers gray, if that's what you're going for. Most others don't. Mehandi.com is the best resource for it. I've been ordering from them for years, even now that I no longer live in the U.S. They ship all over the world. I've written about natural beauty products for magazines for many years, so I've researched this a lot.

    Your silver hair is really amazing - seriously, and you are gorgeous. I totally get it when you said you felt in your spirit it was time to let the dye go. I've felt like this and and been dye-free for about 10 years and get a lot of compliments on my silver hair - best decision. I really enjoyed this video - NEW SUB!

    Very beautiful and an inspiring story. A friend shared this video with me because your thumbnail made her think of me. I had breast cancer in 2017 and went through chemo and all of that. When my hair came back it was predominantly silver all over. I rocked the silver until my hair got longer and then I didn’t like that in between stage as it got thicker. But this year I turned 55 and decided to embrace it 100% ... and go beyond. I crochet braid half of it silver the other half black… Curly. People stop me on the streets to tell me how much they love my hair. I laugh because it’s crochet hair however it really is very similar to what my real hair looks like... my natural hair is not as long. And my mother is 70… Hardly any gray hair🤷🏽‍♀️ Again, BEAUTIFUL… Your spirit, your hair, and you. Thanks for doing this video, blessing🙏🏾💗

    I have a baby face which didn't help because people would stare and still stare to this day.
    My Mother said she started going grey at 15 and so I believe it was because of the genes.
    I decided last year I am sick and tired of dying and punishing my hair, I feel free, I feel natural and feel good that my routine is minimal.

    I am going to grow it to a high top.
