I have noticed that I am going greyer by the day and am fed-up with having to dye it the colour nature intended every 5 weeks, so I recently discussed the options with my colourist:

Option 1: Grow out all the colour and dye it white blonde/grey.

Option 2: Carry on dying it.

Option 3: Stop dying it altogether and grow old gracefully.

Wow, I am spoilt for choice. That is apparently a fact of life for those of us born with dark brown hair, there are few options open to us.

The thought of growing out my colour and looking hideous for 6 months didn't sound too appealing especially in light of the fact that you do not know whether the lighter look will suit you!! So I tried on a couple of wigs and a few hairpieces, and here is a photo of me in my favourite "blonde".

You either love it or hate it - I could get used to it but think I am not quite grey enough, or old enough yet!!
