I first met Tarla in my favorite Facebook Group Silver Revolution, where she mentioned in passing that she used wigs to help her transition to silver hair.
Like many women, I always wanted to dye my hair. Everyone was like, “Oh, don’t go gray. It’s going to make you look old”…and I never had any intention of doing that.
I went from dyeing every four weeks to every three weeks, then every two weeks, until I ended up finally having to dye it myself every Saturday…doing my roots.
I dyed my hair blonde for about a year, and then the same thing started happening. It was the itching, and I’ve seen a lot of women have that reaction. They think they’re just itching, but it’s actually an allergic reaction.
