I have an idea.

Is it time to embrace the gray hair that I have been hiding all these years? It is true, my hair is colored. Now, don't act shocked. I've been doing this since I was 17. I've been going prematurely gray all these years. My hair started out a rich, near-black hue naturally...when I was born. Now, it's probably about 50-75% white. Salt and pepper they call it. Granny hair.

But can I handle it? Should I take the risk and grow it out? Through all the awkwardness? Endue months if not years of partially dyed, partially-natural hair. To finally get my hair to the same place it is today (same cut) with my natural color?

And what if, when it is all grown out...still in a sexy bob-ish cut with short bangs...I end up looking years older than I really am? To be honest, I adore getting comments that I don't look my age. I never want to look my age. But I am tired of dying my hair monthly. It is a pain. Yes, I like the look. I do not like the expense or the havoc it has on my head. And then I have this horrible dry scalp that never seems to want to go away now that I've moved to Colorado.
