I used to love to dye my hair, it was fun to make subtle changes. But now that I have grey, and feel the need to dye, it's not fun. It's tedious! I am still only slightly gray, but I am noticing it more and more.
Anne Kreamer wrote a book about the transition to gray.
She talks about the different perceptions and attitudes toward women and aging.
She notes that fewer than 10 percent of American women colored their hair in the 1950s, compared with up to 75 percent today.
There are some really interesting
surveys she conducts for this book. Check out the photos and perceptions of those surveyed.
I wonder at what point will I decide to go natural and let my gray take over. I am not ready to give up the dye yet.
