How many of you dye your hair?

As we get older with gray hair is it a good idea to dye your hair? I have not died mine in 20 years, now that I'm getting gray I'm thinking twice about it.

I hate my natural 'colour' so I've dyed or bleached my hair ever since my 20s. It grows in such a watery-looking desaturated almost-blonde/almost-brown that I can't tell if I'm going grey or not.

I have had few gray hairs since I was 16. Now that I'm older I have mostly gray hair and would never dye it. It's just a color and I'm in better shape now than when I was 16 so who cares. It"s not for me but some people do it, if it makes you feel better go for it.

Surprisingly, I have very few gray hairs. I have not colored my hair in many years, and have no plans to start any time soon. My sisters have tons more gray than I do. I'm rather pleased about that.

I'll have more gray than both of my parents. It sucks being the young one with more gray.

Holy crap! It's just hair!!

I've found the perfect solution for that problem...... go bold

I’m grey and loving it!

I have never dyed my hair. I am going grey, and I could not give a paramecium's follicle about it!

What hair? I cut all mine off for charity a couple of years ago and now have a No 1 once a month. I was also starting to look like Ken Barlow from Coronation St (UK TV program) which needs to be avoided at all costs so cutting it all off was a win/win situation, raised money for charity and didn't look like ken 🙂

I just did mine today!

HA! I started coloring my hair when I was 16....I've been dark auburn, red, strawberry blonde, beige blonde and now silver. I say - have some fun with it. 😉

I mean I'm 28 and I'm already getting gray hairs myself mind you it's like one that I've seen out of like maybe three in my whole life. So I think it's perfectly fine if someone wishes to dye their hair. ?

I do. Not really needed but we do what ever makes us feel good.

While I don't dye my hair and am definitely of the "to each their own" mindset, I find people that allow themselves to age gracefully, very attractive.

I acknowledge that I am probably in the minority in this opinion.

No dye yet. I don't know how I'll feel if the gray starts to come in.

Natural blonde but the first grey came in when I was 19. Since I live in Florida and spend a lot of time in the sun my hair is light blonde in the summer and darker blonde in the winter. Then I got a job in the entertainment industry. I let one of our hair guys add mango lowlights a few years ago. since then it's been fire engine red, purple, blue, blue red and purple all at the same time. Currently it's blonde with a touch of teal as I went royal blue for New Years and it's taking forever to fade out. I let it go natural in the summer.

I don't anymore. Its salt and pepper and I lo e it. A lot of people think I pay to have it look like this! I think its funny. I love not messing with having to color it anymore!

I don’t dye mine. Hell, I hardly ever brush it.

My hair has been various colors over the years. I gave up on that because my natural color, dark brown with some grey is the real me.

I remember in cosmetology the teacher would say "It's color not dye because we don't kill our hair." I hate the chemicals and smell so I try to avoid it.

1

I'm considering a bright color, like bubble gum pink or teal. My hair is dark, so hopefully it will look like highlights.

Just sayin. You really can tell if it's been dyed. For myself I like natural color, no fake eye lashes, just natural tasteful makeup and no silicon. Somewhat low maintenance. Shouldn't take an hour to get ready should it. The First Lady does nothing for me.

@Sheannutt There's so much more in life than vanity. We celebrate the wonder of life.

Not me.

I used to experiment a lot with my hair in my younger days, but then I faced massive hair loss. It was a real wake-up call for me, and I started doing research on hair restoration options.
That's when I came across the Miami Hair Transplant Clinic. They specialize in hair restoration. I've been thinking about getting a consultation with them myself, but I wanted to hear from others who may have gone through the process first.
If anyone has any feedback on their experience with hair loss, I would greatly appreciate it. Here's the link to the place I found: [miamihairtransplantclinic.com]

I'm one of those people who has dabbled with hair dye over the years. I'm a natural brunette but I've gone with pretty much every color you can think of! I think the decision to dye your hair is a very personal one - it depends on what you feel comfortable with and what look you want to achieve. It's totally fine to go gray, but if you feel like you want to keep your color, there are lots of options available. I'd recommend checking out hairfolli.com - they have some awesome masks that nourish your hair while adding color.

My hair is too weak. I can't dye it, although I'd really like to bleach my hair and see how I will look.
