gray hair is an accomplishment that not all will achieve.

I keep mine short so it doesn't show under my wigs

I blame my kids as I had no grey hair before they came along

All my grey hair slipped to face. I use wish the hardest spot to shave would hurry up and turn grey.

So here's my question. Am I the only girl to think about getting a wig with some grey to be more reflective of my age? I don't think that many women my age are without grey.

I purposely chose a wig the same grey as my hair. My feeling is that it looks more natural. Nancy doesn't like it, though. She says it makes me look too much like my mother. My real hair is "getting" bald on top.

Many women your age, however, color their hair to hide the gray.

Does Grecian Formula color the hair black or does it bring out one's natural pre-gray color?

I have a wig that more or less matches my proportions of grey, but I admit that I prefer the new one that is more blond than my own hair, but still - erm age appropriate. It was commented on the other day "How clever to make a wig that looks like the roots need doing" now that's realism.

Grey or white hair is disctinctive. Mione ahs been grey/white since my mid-30s but I still have it. Not blue-tinted though

My one wig has quite a bit of gray in it. I feel it matches my persona, even though my persona is a girl and not a woman, probably because my biological hair has a lot of gray in it.

I dated a woman for a long time who began to aquire gray hair at the age of 16, although that is a tangential comment.

Well my wife has been after me for a long time to get a gray or salt and pepper wig but my heart tells me no.

She is the one who keeps Carol in line and tells me at 72 you need gray hair when you go out which is far a few between anymore.

I don't want to look like and old lady

I'm with you Carol Ann, but one day I think I will just look odd with more wrinkles than a raisin and not have the grey hair to go with them. In the mean time, I'm still just thinking about getting some grey.

Y'all have made the decision easier once I commit.

They keep peeking out, and I keep plucking them out. If I have to resort to the "bottle", then so be it! I will not go down without a fight!
