Embracing the gray

I have colored my hair since I was in my late teens. I have had all ranges of blond – medium, highlighted, totally platinum blond – I’ve done it. And I was still doing it on 3/14/20. Then all of the salons closed. And remain closed today 6 weeks later.

I’d been considering letting my hair go to gray but I wasn’t sure how to do it or even if I really, really wanted to. I am taking this opportunity to do it. I’m tired of spending every 4th Saturday at the salon. Tired of the upkeep in general. Tired of spending a lot of money to maintain my hair.

So…I’m going to let it grow out. And I’m documenting the journey.

First,  a picture of me with my blond hair and then a couple of pictures taken yesterday morning showing the beginnings of the growing out process:

I’m on my way…
