I might be okay with letting mine go grey if it hadn't receded so much in the front hairline. It got really bad in about 10 years ago and has been slowly filling back in since, but it will probably never be as full as it was. Like, one of those things I could deal with, but that's TWO things that make me look older than I feel I am.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

So ... I'll let it go white and see how it looks.
It was white when I met you at the DC F2F and you looked magnificent.

DC F2F? that would have been in 2004 and it was GOING white, but hadn't achieved the full effect!

I just remember you looking particularly splendid then.

(blush) Thank you! I remember I'd bought a fancy top for the event.

To add to the irony, at my last hair appointment, I'd set up the next for April 25. I received a text message - obviously automatically generated - reminding me of it. sigh ... if only it were true ... the stylist messaged me that they hope to re-open May 15.

If you don't want to order color remover, AND if your hair is not too far off your natural color, you can also make a hair mask with Vitamin C tablets (about 3) and shampoo or dish soap. Crush up the tablets, mix it with the soap, put it in your hair, put a cap over your hair, and wait 45 minutes. It's worked very well for me with both permanent and semi-perm dye.
Condition the hell out of it if you do this.

Right, sorry, should have mentioned that. I condition the hell out of my hair any time I do anything to it, so I forget to tell people that. I condition with deep conditioner, rinse it, and then put an overnight conditioner on.

I was shocked at how badly it fucked up the wefts that I left in too long! I mean, it's treated hair to start with, but wow. The last time I had hair melt like that (on my head) it was a perm on top of hair that had gone through two boxes of color remover and a box of bleach. (Look, I was 14.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
