Below the waist but I wear it up for the most part.

Still trying to decide if I want to give in and go gray. I think I’m still going to fight that for a while, yet. ;)

Mine isn’t to my waist yet, middle of my back, and I don’t feel old enough to go for all the gray I really have (does she, or doesn’t she? only her hairdresser knows for sure). So yeah, I’m fighting it for now.

Last year, I was introduced to a family friend of our daughter’s in-laws. He said to our daughter just a few minutes later, “how young ARE your parents?”. That made my year! Mission accomplished!

I gave in some years ago & let my hair go ‘gray’. Pre-gray, it was dark brown, almost black. Trying to keep the ‘skunk stripe’ away (gray stripe along the part where growing out) got to be a pain. Anyway, BEST thing I could have done for my hair - no more dye & currently in a very healthy state. My hair was naturally curly & liked to ‘frizz’ in humidity & we have plenty of that. The gray is much straighter & not as frizzy. It’s also a ‘silver’/white gray & I have people tell me it’s a beautiful color (I got lucky!). My paternal grandmother was silver/white in her mid-thirties ... 7 kids, making life work on a farm, some of it during Depression years. I’d like to think my hair is a throwback to her.
