I stopped trying to hide my gray years ago because it just got too expensive. And the roots grow in so fast, the upkeep is just a pain.

Odd, but I get MORE compliments on my salt and pepper hair than my dyed reddish/brown hair. People under 30 call me "ma'am" and are very polite, even giving up their seat on the bus for me.

That didn't happen with my dyed hair, LOL.

I'll be 60 in a few months, but even with gray hair people say I don't look it.

Yeah, Trav, that gray hair shows all the life wisdom we have right?

And so do those crows feet around my eyes.
