And I have not regretted it once! If anything, I've become very proud of my gray mane and am now much more aware of how fake dyed hair looks on other people. I have never been more convinced that I made the right decision :)
I'm not going to lie, not everyone around me is being supportive (not to my face of course, although...) and I've heard second hand feedback that a few of my close friends actually do not like it. But you know what? I do! I like it! And aside from those few people, most of my entourage is really encouraging and gives me compliments. This feels good.
One thing is for sure though: I am in the middle of an extremely awkward transition. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I don't intend to cut my hair short while I grow out my grays. I'd say at that rate my hair is growing, I'm about a third in. I do get semi-regular trims (an inch off every two months or so), so in about a year I might consider chopping off the ends (the grays should be below the shoulders by then).
We'll see how that goes!
I'll be back in 6 months for an 18 months update and I'll leave you with update pictures of the past few months :)
Don't hesitate to ask me questions and leave me comments!
Steph
