Hi, thanks for the new posts, Bitsy and Kris - what great writers. So here's the thing. I've been coloring my hair since I saw those first stiff and nasty grays when I was 25. So if I do the math - which I don't do - I've spent about $1000 a year - OHMYGOD that's $25,000! I could have had a nice eyelift and microderm for that. So I'm going to try to ditch the dye. My hair is totally gray. Scratch that. My hair is white. Penny, my stylist said it has no color and gray is a color. But the question is, can I live through the unattractive prospect of half gray -half white hair? My ten year old son said he's opposed. Let's face it. If I let the natural hair come through the dirty little secret that his mom is the age of most of his friend's grandmothers will  be readily apparent. I'm about to dive into the internet to see how I can make this transition a little easier. I've already read about women who have done everything from wearing humongo headbands to putting low lights in the gray. I'm hoping for an Emmy Lou Harris thing, but I'm afraid I might end up with a Grandma Moses thing instead. Advice from others of you out there
