I dye mine and luckily had purchased what I needed before the stay at home went into effect because we suppose to attend a wedding at the end of March.  Have enough for two more but waiting longer to do it since we are home now.

I quit trying to cover up the gray a few months ago.  I was fighting a losing battle.  Time to accept this stage of life and carry on...

Was coloring mine blonde for a while to blend in with the white.  Now, I just let the white grow out.  I like it.  i'm turning 70 soon.

I'm leaving it gray at the roots til I can go somewhere. I have home hair dyes but no reason to use it while staying home.

I dye it.  I have had a lot of gray hair since I was 17.  Sure did not want it them or now.  Just makes me feel better.  I have always got it done once at the hairdresser and then twice myself before going back in for a color and cut.

I'm lucky on the hair thing,,,  my hair is completely white and not the dirty white,,,  both my mom and dad had white hair so I now have it also.  won't dye it for anything.

I never colored my hair until my grown children talked me into it.  My mother had beautiful white hair.  My gray has grown out a lot, but I will probably color it again when this is over.  What has grown out, gives me a good idea of what I'd look like totally gray.  I'm not sure I'm ready for that, but I guess I should be accepting my gray hair more gracefully.

Technically it's not "gray" hair, but silver mixed in with dark or pigmented hair.  Not to sound like a smarty pants but my Mom always corrected me on that.   Personally I have more dark than silver or "gray" in my hair.  Not bad for a 62 year old.  When I was a teen I would sometimes dye my hair pitch black bc I thought it looked cool, LOL.   Now I just let it all hang out.    :turkey:

I use L'oreal hair dying kit at home. It's relatively affordable and is easy to apply.

Just let it grow. I'm dealing with my grays and will go to the salon when I feel it's safe.

Years ago, I always got my hair permed.  But the chemicals in the cream was causing sores in head.  2013 was the last time I permed my hair.  in 2014 I did a BC on my hair and it was the best thing I could have done. I am all natural now and loving it.  Don't know why it took so long to make the right decision.
