should I just go gray?

OK, I'm over 50 now and really sick of the time/expense of hair coloring. Judging by my roots, I am probably 50% gray now. My original color, back in the day was blonde, so the gray is not so noticible growing out. should I just bite the bullet and give it up?

    Yeah! Go for it!

    I read this article that was saying that older men prefered woman with naturally gray hair more then them dying their hair. I'll try to find it and just ask if you want me to send it to you :)

    It depends? If you look as cute with total gray, go for it and if it blends well with your blond no problem, do it and see? And if you don't like it or the way it makes you look then try the color thing again. The nice thing about being over 50 is being the YOU that you always wanted to be. You go!

    Yeah go gray! Gray is hot these days...when I get gray, Im just going to let it go. It suites the person....and looks really good and natural. I would try it out and if you hate it, color it again. Thats the great part about coloring hair, you can always change it.

    Try it, see if you are comfortable, and if not you can always go back. You say it is not so noticeable.

    I tried it I have been battling with my grays for 12 years and there are times I just chop my hair off and let the natural color grow out. Once I am fed up with that too I die it again.

    Much luck!

    Its up to you, my mom has the same things she dyes it mostly but also somtimes since it is not as noticeable she just does highlights. But in the end it really is up to you good luck.
