I decided to go gray in December 2007 and I'm finally there. But I am still
having a problem seeing myself as gray haired. Wondering if anyone else is
experiencing the same?
In my mind's eye, when I envision myself doing something in the future, or
reliving something in the recent past, I see myself as a red head. Not the gray
head I have become. I am still startled when I catch a glimpse of myself
accidently in a mirror.
Don't get me wrong--I love being gray. Love the freedom, love the look, love not
having too vivid hair which looked bizarre at my age. BUT....I just can't seem
to get used to the real me. I kind of feel like a stranger in my own body. Very
weird...
