Is My Hair Dyed or Not
Hair is such a funny thing.  I have decided it can be quite controversial.  A couple of years ago I decided to stop dying my hair.  I started in my early twenties as I had a lot of gray hair.  I did it myself for a long time. Then when I couldn't keep up, I decided to have it done professionally.  I did that for a long time as well.  Then I decided it was expensive and a pain.  When my hairdresser told me she could no longer get some spots to color I thought, that is it.  So I stopped.  My best friends asked me not to stop and said they didn't understand why I wanted to look old.  But I went gray.  When I asked my darling Don what he thought he smiled and said "I am in love with you not your hair so it really doesn't matter what color it is." Then I did acupuncture for my thyroid.  Surprise my hair started to go dark again. HMMMMM.  I started out in this world as a blond, not sure why it couldn't have gone that way again.  It can't seem to make up it's mind. In fact, in high school I had reddish hair.  No I didn't dye it.  In my senior picture my hair is red.  Then it went dark again.  O.K. I digress.  Anyway my hair is dark underneath.  When I pull my hair up in a ponytail or barrettes it looks dark. When I wear it down it looks more gray (except my bangs always seem to look dark).  My right side is a lot more gray then the left side. In fact,  it looks like before and after,  that is how drastically different it is.  So to those who are convinced I dye my hair.....sorry you are so wrong.  To those who are wondering...now you know.  To those who realize it has a mind of it's own ........you are right, it is NOT dyed.  Now it has stopped growing........that is another story for another post.

Now you know why in my perfect world everyone would be bald! :) Not sure that Doctor will ever be convinced, he doesn't know you as well as I.
I can certainly relate to hair being a topic of conversation...I can believe everything you say about the color and changes, and I say it might be too good to be true about the not growing thing...you could save a lot of money on haircuts!!!! I like your hair no matter the color, style, or length....
