    I’m pleased to be friends with my first ex, though post-COVID we rarely get together anymore. She recently decided to stop coloring her hair after 40-some years, so now I have no idea what she looks like. I asked her to send a pic but she finds excuses not to as she waits for the old color to grow out.

    When we moved to Canada the hair color in the store was so much more money than it was in Michigan so I decided to let my gray hair grow out. I had been coloring it for about 15 years so I didn’t know how gray it had gotten or if there was any blonde left. There wasn’t! Oh well, but I found I liked it and never went back to coloring it.

    I would never color my hair. I love each gray hair I have and would love to have more. Back when I was in my 30s, I dyed my hair with silver dye for Halloween. It looked real good on me.

    It is why I never started down that road. “Just for Men” never entered my life. But then again, I never had grey, I had silver.

    I tried coloring mine when my near-black hair changed to sun-lightend brown in my 30s. I didn’t like it, and never tried again. I wish the white hairs didn’t fall out, because I used to have a lot more hair than I do now that it’s grey

    My husband suggested I stop coloring my hair deep auburn and since I got tired of dying my hair every six weeks I did. I like my grey hair. It’s white around the temples and since it’s long it looks great, plus my hubby loves it too!

    I had been coloring my hair for a long long time. For a while I was doing it at home. I started having issues with my scalp so onto the salon. My kids noticed my salt and pepper roots and commented I should be graying gracefully. I decided to just start highlighting. When Covid hit and salons shut down that’s when I had the perfect excuse to stop coloring. OMG I love my natural salt and pepper color. It can in so evenly. I get compliments on my color. :)

    A former GF decided to let her hair grow out as she had forgotten the original color. She’s fairly certain it wasn’t grey. Her husband’s hair is still red.

    It took me 15 years to convince my wife to stop coloring her hair. About the only good thing about covid lockdown is that she stopped then. I kept telling her and telling her that naturally grey hair looked hot on a good looking woman.It’s a dual edged sword though, now she gets complimented and hit on by other men even more.

    In 2019, I used the spray-on color (that you use to hide roots) and colored my hair, beard, and mustache back to brown for April Fools Day. The reactions I got at work were hilarious. It was even better when I got home because my wife (who had left for work before me) had no idea. She was quite surprised and laughed.

    My wife who is 71 still dyes her hair a nice burnished red. I have never seen her natural colour on her head in the 34 years we have been together. I tell her i really don’t care what colour her hairs is, but, she will dye her hair the day before her funeral I think. I’m salt and pepper at 71.

    The wife(yeah she is now), used to color her hair, during covid her Mom(now 91) stopped doing hers and it was a great color…that convinced her that I was right and she should stop coloring….somewhat. So now she colors from the shoulders down but leaves the top her natural color with the beautiful silver threads through it….

    Wife had been coloring her hair blonde forever. Turns out her natural color was that white that was so popular a few years ago. So she colored it once, that color, and never had to color it again. I’m a little gray now but very thankful I still have my hair. Never wore a hat and that may have helped. I’ve always thought, for women, healthy hair was most attractive regardless of color. I’ve always felt the ones that did the most to their hair, color, hairspray, chemicals for fullness, chemicals for curls or waves, chemicals for hold, tended to make their hair frizzy and thin. I remember working with a woman from China many years ago. She was quite up in age but her hair was so thick and healthy looking. She said that she would, from time to time, soak a towel in whiskey and wrap it around her head and let the alcohol clean out her pores and follicles. Healthy scalp was the key she said.

    I never remember my mother NOT dying her hair… the only way I knew what her “natural” color was came from old photos… which were mostly all B&W, so not much help. I think because of this, I never have and never will dye my own. I am quite content to have silver highlights.

    There was one woman I regularly used to encounter once a week at a volunteer activity. She dyed her hair, but I didn’t know it….until at some point she just abruptly decided to stop dying it. She went from dark brown to white, and the following week when I saw her for the first time since the change….I was walking into the building and saw her from a long way across the room – and from a distance, before I got close enough to to be able to tell what was really going on, I actually thought she had for some reason put on a white bathing cap. I was thinking “Why in the world is she wearing a bathing cap?!”

    Oh oh….. JJ is going to have Janis go “natural gray”?

    That will seem very….. different.

    Even though I know it doesn’t happen as drastically for blonde folks….. if he does have Janis go gray….. wouldn’t it be fair and appropriate for him to do so for Arlo as well.

    IMO, keeping the consistent hair color they currently have for both seems the wisest choice…. just for continuity.

    While my grandmother, who lived with her, was alive, my Mom turned silver grey early. When Grandma died, Mom begam dying her hair a mousy brown. I called her a painted lady…but it did no good; she kept on dying it until she developed Alzheimer’s, and then, without dye, her hair was a glorious white. Meanwhile, Carol has never dyed her hair and it’s just a nice greyish white, that a permanent every once in a while sets it off just wonderfully. Me? Hair left before I retired, so just a grey fringe is all that’s left.

    I had a coworker who told me she started dyeing her hair in her late 20’s. Decades later she had to start a medical procedure due serious issues. Her Doctor told her that she had to stop dyeing her hair. Like today strip she told several of us she was very nervous about what she would look like.In the end she was about 90% grey. After the medical treatment concluded, after over a year, she decided not to return to dyeing her hair.
