Hair colours these days

People should do whatever makes them happy. Some people color their hair to hide the gray. Others color it as a way to express themselves. Hair color doesn't matter, it doesn't hurt anyone. What kind of person you are is what matters. 🙂

moonstone rainbow hair color
 

My DIL started with one color, blue,in a streak. She went thru a red streak next. Then she had a full head of rainbow colors.

Now her hair is short, about chin length, with one side shaved back. This is apparently very in style. She is beautiful no matter what she does, she could even pull off a shaved head. I do however miss her long dark hair, it was so stunning.

The description of the hair colour on the box states: "Kick-Ass Red."
And does it just not do that? My lovely lady said that she just
does not want to be a sweet little old, silver, grey haired woman,
who gets patronising remarks about her age. "The hell with that,"
she says. This was taken a couple of years ago, I do so love her hair,
but the photo below shows how auburn her hair was before the
grey effect of old age, the red just sits perfectly with her character.

The last time I colored my hair was several years ago. I thought a nice auburn tint to the grey streaks would be lovely. So, I bought a temporary color kit that promised to wash out in eight washings.

Liar, liar box on fire! My whole head turned a glow-in-the-dark burgundy and it didn't wash out. Ever. I had to live with it until enough grew out that I could go to a salon on one of our stops (we were touring the country for five months) and say, "Cut everything off that's not black or silver". I looked like Zippy the Pinhead but at least I didn't keep anyone up at night. Thank goodness for hats!

Different hair colors on people (of any age) don't bother me at all ... Let them have fun!

When my own hair all turned too white for my tastes, I found it the perfect time to go platinum.
This was after a lifetime of very dark brown hair.

I must say that is a beautiful colour.

About ten years ago the pastor of my Episcopalian church dyed her hair purple. It matched her robes and looked pretty good.

She was always trying to loosen us all up and wanted us to clap our hands and sway with the music. We weren't very good at it. Trying to get middle aged Episcopalians to rock out just wasn't happening. She moved on to a big city church where I'm sure she had better results.

I would be the same. I like traditional church, I really don't want to be made to dance and clap hands and all that. It's not me!

What a nightmare for you. I've heard people can react badly to home colouring. I would always leave it to professional handling, if you must do it at all.

I once had a very bad perm, all dried out and frizzed, I was dreadfully upset. But the local hairdresser who had done this refused to help me. I never forgave her. I booked an excellent but expensive hairdressers in town and they restored my hair to respectable again. I stuck with them since. Our hair is very important to us, both men and women. To have a good hairdresser is vital.
