    I went gray this year after coloring for the last 15 years I just got tired of doing it and the husband doesn't like the new me of course his is white now but that makes no difference. Have any of you given up coloring and do you like the gray and the freedom of not coloring every couple months

    Being a hairdress, I hate the grey in my hair, but I'm spending way to much money trying to get things to make quilts and havent gotten my hair done in a while and I just hate it salt and pepper look...But with summer coming and being outside more I'm going to highlite it again soon! LOL did I mention I hate my gray? LOL

    I didn't color much, but I did quit coloring at all. My DIL was a hairdresser and she said people will kill to get the color of my hair as it looks streaked and not just an all over gray. It is a lot cheaper and less trouble!

    I'm too young to let the grey show. I'm fighting it.

    I have never colored my hair. Immediately after my last child was born I got a grey streak right up front on my cow-lick. I have gotten more grey over the years (yes each hair has a name for the person who turned it). My kids want me to color my hair but it doesn't bother me....

    Never coloured my hair and never will. I like it just the way it is.

    I color mine as soon as the white starts showing. If it was pretty like my late DH I would leave it. He had beautiful silver hair, but mine turns white and it is not pretty!!!
