Description

gray hair -- gray hair -- you thought you hated it but maybe you could learn to love it? -- will you continue to color or stop? -- will you decide to go gray? This group is for women of a certain age who are deciding to go back to their roots and discover what comes through after years of coloring their hair. It is meant to encourage and share alternatives about how to go from colored hair to a dye-free mane. Glorious gray hair awaits us!

She is a natural silver... is this a new twist on the old 'natural blonde' standard? Maybe you want to find out for yourself...

Buzz up!The Silver Tsunami: Is Gray the New Power Hair Color for Women?

Meryl Streep as the quintessential powerbabe Miranda Priestly in "The Devil Wears Prada" ©
This is not a beauty story about glamour. It’s a beauty story about power.

And how somehow, suddenly, women are showing up in boardrooms and on red carpets with the most unexpectedly fierce fashion accessory of all: the Power-Gray head of hair. It’s a watershed moment in the popular culture, a reminder of our aging population and a baby boomer generation that’s not about to stop changing and breaking the rules.

Power Gray: It’s not your mother’s soft, silvery tresses.
It’s a fashion statement with a purpose.

It takes the ultimate symbol of aging — gray hair — and literally stands it on its head, declaring it an asset rather than something to be colored away. It allows the wearer, when walking into the room, to subliminally convey the notion:

“You think growing older is a bad thing? Think again.”

Someday I may post decent looking photos, but today is not that day. You can still get a good idea of how my hair's looking, though. --- Anita, in Dallas
