Roe, you made my day! My hair is shoulder length right now and I continue to get primarily positive feedback. Still working to get the ponytail back. I am...
Hi Kathy, That would be me who tints her eyebrows :-) I just started a couple of months ago. I have tried a couple of salons so far. You just need to ask ...
Hi Laydeebird! Damn I know how tough it can be. Again I lurked and read all the posts and was so jealous. I decided that was it...I couldnt stand the waiting...
Thank you! I'd love to be in the winners circle. I have virtually imperceptible tips of color left in only a couple of places that will be gone next...
Hello, After two years with no color, I have decided to go back to the fakery. I really didn't get a lot of negative comments (to my face, anyway) when I was...
Mary Kay, I am SO close to backing down and doing what you just did. I'm also (almost) 47, and since letting my hair "go", people have mistaken me for my son's...
Anita, I think your idea about splurging on a great haircut is very good. Any time I have had a great one it did wonders for my state of mind. As far as the...
For some needing encouragement--truly you will be surprised at the compliments you will receive. I have gotten so many more compliments on my hair since it is...
I agree. Just when you start thinking maybe you look older or feel a bit unsure someone gives you a compliment. I don't think people realize how much the...
Since my last haircut, I've gotten a lot of compliments on my hair. Maybe people were just happy to see the last of my bizaare two-tone...but I'd like to think...

Anita, I have a neighbor who went gray involuntarily (medical reasons) and she gets her hair "clear glazed" about every 2 months. She is Italian with thick,...
I attended an Open House at Va's Longwood University this weekend. One of the speakers was a very attractive, thin, chic mid-century woman (Sally McMullin?)...
It's so true! I get compliments several times a week, even college students have stopped me to tell me how beautiful my hair is. I'm not all white, but the...
Hi Anita I had this and other issues, like growing out long hair, but I had a few enhancements in order to get my white in good balance with the rest of my...
Anita and Anne, Thanks for your comments. Anne I love the way your hair is growing out it is very elegant. Anyway, I think no matter what our hair color is...
Hi Roe, You are so right. There are days that it just doesn't seem like anything is right. I had more of those days when I colored my hair than now though....
Great point about the negative messages we get from hair color ads. Let's face it...per the ads, unless you color your hair, you are not all that you can be....
You are so right! I colored my hair at home, so you just reminded me of all the times that I colored my hair and didn't get the exact same color as the time...
This is like my 3rd attempt at doing this, and I'm going to REALLY try and stick it out this time. I'm one of those who is growing out from dark brown hair, so...
Laughing....how true! I went to the salon and my hair was never the same color twice. I caught the bug when I went to Sea World for spring break this...
lol I found myself coloring at home *because* I wanted to have a consistent color each time. The women I knew who went to salons were the ones who showed up...
Oh, do! You can do it. ;-) I promise, the worst time is where you are now. That first three months where it looks like you haven't bothered to take the time...
So....today I got asked if I colored my hair. Seriously....she wanted to know if I was getting my hair dyed white---- because...roll the drums....it just...
Just wanted to post a comment to Terri, You are brave to do this in the corporate world. I'm home with my 4 little ones and some days enjoy just hiding at...
I have to admit to being full of trepidation while waiting for tomorow to arrive - the plan is to have all (or as much as possible) of my coloured hair to be...
Hi Diane, Best to you on the big day tommorrow. What color highlights are you going to have put in? Just curious because the white that you have is so pretty....
Hi Diane, The photos of you are great! So many colors so little time!! Ha Ha! I think your silvery coming in is amazing. Once you get it cut it will awesome....
I dunno, Diane. I think I'd rethink getting any highlights at all. Your natural color is beautiful and shiny and striking! Since you're willing to get most,...
