No dye for me.....I just let it come in naturally....a lot of it comes in more white than grey.  :o :o

I still dye my hair.  I have gray at the temples.  I'm not ready to go gray.
I'll be 61 in June.

I don't dye my hair, and why should anyone want to dye their grey hair. It's wonderful to see the beauty of especially someone who is up in age to have grey hair, my Pastor's wife's hair is grey and she looks beautiful, she not even in her 60's.

I always color my hair once the gray stats showing, even if it's a little bit of gray. :)

I never dyed my hair because once you start you have to keep it going and I can't afford that

I let my hair get gray naturally for a time.  But I didn't like so I get it colored.  In the immortal words of Martha Stewart, "If I don't like it, I fix it."

Drink Lemon juice,eat liver,bananas and all these other foods and drinks that are great for your hair plus water  and let nature take over instead of a box. It's ridiculous how ppl go for the fast fix instead of the right fix,hair goes grey or white for specific reasons.

What are the reasons it goes gray ??  Like getting scared ?? if that was the case I'd have been gray as a child, but i did go gray very early in life...

I started coloring my hair when the gray first appeared.  I probably will continue to do it for the rest of my life.

Well I will be 75 soon.  My hair started getting silver strands in it when I was in my early 30's and  have always just let it be. People always liked it shining. At that time my was dark brown. So I just never died it and when my youngest son passed at 19 it really started showing more. Now it is mostly a silver with some white in it. Since I don't buy the dye or have it done I buy really great hair products that make it shine. A lot of women I have met want to know who does my hair, just tell them it is natural. Now  my sister is a bottle blond and has been since she was 15 and her hair always looks dull.

I have a small amount of gray hair, but I don't like it.  I color my hair when needed.

                                  Trauma is one reason  as well as vitamin/mineral deficiencies,pollution too . My hair  has white in it because  I stopped eating healthy for a decade plus,pollution factors too, but over the last year plus I've been drinking Lemon  Juice concentrate,apple cider vinegar and livers  as well as cutting out all red flag foods and drinks (junk/sugar/greasy../soda/sweet tea) it takes time but it works. I went from 2 years ago looking like a  60 plus year old with my hair/beard/mustache to in my 30's even though I'm 45.  When ppl thought that me and my dad were brothers(he's 72 and I'm 45) really got to me,so healthy is the way for me,plus he had a stroke and I'm not having one.  Also make sure you cut away at the old gray or white hair as the new comes along.

I think it's more of a personal decision, I dye because I just don't like the gray but I have seen some women with full grey hair and it looks great on them so go with how you personally feel about it for you; can't go wrong that way.

   I do. My hair stylist dyes my gray hair around my face
   because it does have not "even" gray color. She says:
   "Face looks matter". The first thing people are going to
   look at is "your face".
