To dye or not to dye...and why??
I've coloured my hair since i was 13. I used to enjoy experimenting with different shades. There were lots of great semi permenant products back then so i was never stuck with a shade for long. Over the years, i've found what i like and in general have stuck with the same colour for the last 20 years or so. Its a tad darkers and redder than my natural shade of mousey brown.
I bumped into a friend today. She said.....'ooh you've coloured yr hair?' 'Yes' i reply ' i only did it yesterday, it will take a day or two to calm down a bit...lol'
She then started to lecture me telling me I should stop colouring it and 'grow old gracefully...stop trying to look younger....it looks harsh and ages you more' she tuts.
Wohoa!! I say ' i colour it coz i like it this colour. I dont do it to look younger or even to hide the grey...i do it simply coz I like it'
'If you say so. You should just embrace the grey. Its incredebly freeing' she replies.
Well!!
Those of you who do colour your hair... what are your reasons for doing so?
Do you intend to stop at any point to 'embrace the grey?? '
