I have colored my hair.  I used to switch it up and try different colors.   I prefer to use the non-ammonia type of hair colors.

I've always liked my natural brown hair.  Whenever I vaguely considered dying it, I was too afraid whatever color I'd choose just wouldn't look as nice as my natural color.  During the summer, when I do a lot of hiking outdoors, I get nice sun-bleached highlights.  Didn't think any dye job would compare.  I started getting some stray grey hairs in my 20's, and now at 41 I'm seeing a few more, but I kind of like it - (1) my hair is naturally straight - no body - talking permanents go straight days after "straight" hair...the consistency of the greys coming in are actually giving my hair natural body and I love it, and (2) the way the greys are scattered, it almost gives my hair a sparkly quality - like glitter - which I think is kind of a neat effect at the moment.

Not sure if I'll ever decide to dye - maybe check back with me in another 10 years.   ;D

Unfortunately, if I were to color my head, it'd end up looking like this:



 ;D    :D    ;D

When I was sporting a goatee, I tried to color that, since the hair above my upper lip was very fair but darkened to a brown as it moved down to my chin.

Yes, I color my hair a lot. I have a lot of gray, well, white hair and I do not look good in white hair. Getting old is harsh.

I am 53 years old and have never had my had colored but recently started using the non permanent type on my hair .... starting to see some grey!!!  When I was in my 20's I put a little wash in color and it turned
orange so I have always been afaid of color since then.

Tigerlilly, if you are just now seeing a little grey at 53, you are very lucky!


My brothers have a LOT of grey.....they had grey showing in their 30's

I am not ready to be grey, so I do color my hair.

I'm 56 years old and have colored my hair a number of times to cover the gray. When used properly it doesn't damage your hair. When I first started I used Henna which brought out the red high lights that were already in my hair and just made it more noticeable.

I started to have gray hairs showing in my late 20's. 
Have been dying it for years.

The Clairol lady and me are best buddies ... LOL

I tried to do it at home once and it turned out badly so I always get it colored in a salon. Very expensive though.

I had it dyed bright red once, then completely black, and then it turned orangish to blondish.  It was cool.

I'm a dude BTW  8)

I get highlights in my hair only maybe twice a year. I have naturally blonde hair and in the summer I don't have to get highlights the sun lightens it, Guess I just lucked out.
