It's a feminist issue and we need to take back our power to define what we think is beautiful. I personally like gray hair and I have a bunch but I'm not going to dye it to make other people have the illusion that I'm better looking. --LauraThe Imperfect Mother's Practical Advice Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13643442199954332652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414320155191227033.post-18923201152122153632008-05-21T11:42:00.000-04:002008-05-21T11:42:00.000-04:00Tasha, I so admire your courage.

Funny how I have to use the word courage, and yet, in this day it is unfortunate that a woman has to actually have courage to be who she naturally is. I dye my hair, obsess about my weight and constantly compare myself to beautiful women. It is a horrible way to live and I am so sick of it. I am in the process of trying to leave all that garbage behind and for once in my life, love the real me. I am believing that your stand is going to be a wonderful turning point for us women.

I've tried letting the gray grow out and hate the way the roots look as they grown out because my hair is very dark.

Often, I think about cutting all my hair off and starting over - it would definitely save me a lot of money - but again - I don't have the courage yet. <BR/><BR/>You are beautiful with or without gray hair.Periwinkle Pass Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02819118744639835412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414320155191227033.post-65112549069901369272008-05-21T09:11:00.000-04:002008-05-21T09:11:00.000-04:00Hi Tascha....I love your honesty..I too am gray......Hi Tascha....I love your honesty..I too am gray...started turning when I was 20 and was almost totally gray at 27..I did the dye thing for a number of years, but it was so much work, never looked natural, and on and on and on. Decided to stop dying, for alot of the reasons you mentioned and have never regretted it. Find yourself a purple-based shampoo..it will make the gray really shine!Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00264736159036979065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414320155191227033.post-60066077486514926522008-05-21T09:06:00.000-04:002008-05-21T09:06:00.000-04:00I have not been brave enough to take this leap!

Not that I'm against wanting to look nice, but I don't think 'wearing your age well' is a bad thing! Our western culture is so youth obsessed... but I wouldn't go back to my twenties if you paid me! My 30's and now my early 40's have been the best years of my life!<BR/><BR/>Yay Tascha! You should paint one of your ladies with sparkling silver hair to celebrate!Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15197079377878890152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414320155191227033.post-77874096728797644922008-05-21T08:12:00.000-04:002008-05-21T08:12:00.000-04:00This is a beautiful post, and I absolutely agree w...This is a beautiful post, and I absolutely agree with you. I welcome gray hair...bring it on. It's mine and I love it. It's really discouraging to see our culture obsess about youth, when aging is part of life and should be embraced and adored, not resisted.

Constantly working with chemicals that made me sick and 50% of the clients were more concerned with altering the shape of their nose, rather than spending the time improving their attitude which equals no inner beauty. You have made a wise decision and believe me when I say that those that mock you for your ' natural platnium blonde' streaks have issues of their own they do not want to address.

I think grey hair can be so beautiful, expecially when the person inside is beautiful. And from what I've seen on youtube and read here at your blog the last couple of weeks, I think you are a beautiful woman.<BR/><BR/>xo<BR/>Ishthya<BR/><BR/>Oh and I like your art very much!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414320155191227033.post-12545220159968812732008-05-21T03:21:00.000-04:002008-05-21T03:21:00.000-04:00Naturally grey hair, beautifully cut, is both stri...Naturally grey hair, beautifully cut, is both striking and rare.

Good for you! I live in San Diego, CA and I feel like there is so much pressure to look a certain way or BE a certain way. It can be really tough sometimes, but the older I get the more I am realizing that I just need to be me and not worry so much what other people think. Great post...thanks!-ShonnaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15277818737631498725noreply@blogger.com
