    Default Will you dye your hair when it starts turning gray?

    When your hair starts to turn gray, will you dye it or let it be?

    I hope mine comes in a few strands at a time and not all at once so I don't have a weird color line as it grows out.

    I reckon I'll let it be (I have the Beatles in my head now ). I've a long time to decide though.

    I'm sure yours will look lovely, however it comes in.

    I don't really qualify, as I've been "turning gray" for about 10 years, and nope - no dye for me. I love the silvery-blonde color I'm getting. It definitely showed up a few threads at a time. Now I have thousands. I have quite a few mid-to-dark blonde hairs still sprouting out of my scalp, too.

    I won't cover my greys. I don't plan to color anymore, anyway. I saw a lady in a store today. She had beautiful brown hair with individual grey hairs through out. It was breath-taking. I want that!

    I colored it for 25 years. Now I'm delighted with having let my natural color come out.

    I have no idea what I will do! I think it depends on if it suits me or not. If it doesn't I'd dye it with natural dye.

    I am going through this now. I colored first and couldnt stand the demarcation and fade and chemicals and damage. Now I have switched to henna and love the highlighted grays and that is helping me get use to seeing them there. Now I am going to transition to cassia because as I get grayer the hennaed gray hair will be oranger and thats not going to look right. So it is a gradual process for me. Right now its coming in in streaks with more at the temples.

    I'm about 10% gray, but right now I'm into having indigo'd black hair. When I get to have 50% or more gray I might let it grow out.
