To DYE or Not to DYE

When you reach my age
the big question is
to dye or not to dye...
the hair, since dying
of old age is a given.

As a child I was blond,
brunette as an adult
then gray hairs appeared
during my sons' teen years
revealing the aging process.

BEFORE-platinum blonde-frowning
So, I hit the bottle
Clairol's Nice and Easy
that is...to become blond
again, but it was too light.

Now I'm trying a darker
color with more brown 
not just platinum hues
because my son said to me:
Your  hair is white, mother dear.

AFTER-natural light blonde-notice the smile!

  2. Not to dye. I prefer not to mess with any of that. My hair is gray and that's fine because I've earned it.

  6. Oh yes! Very lovely Lin. It's nice to be blond because your roots don't show as much. If I were to dye my hair, you'd see the roots sprouting too quickly and I'm too lazy to keep it up. You look fabulous!
