I was in my early 30’s when I first noticed a silver crown framing my face. I panicked and immediately ran out and bought my first box of hair dye.

Growing up I watched my Mom, Aunts and my Mom’s friends all dyeing their hair, and I said,  “Hell!” – they sometimes would dedicate a Friday night just for coloring each other’s hair.

I was not happy with my color and my grays (which now I refer to as “my silver sparkles”) were showing after two weeks.

Looking into the mirror I said to myself, “What if I just stop? Why not just be me?” It was like a lightbulb went off in my head.  I was so excited.

About 2 months in, I received a call from my stylist, who seemed concerned. I had not been in for my 3-week routine, I assured him I was fine, but no longer felt the need to dye my hair – I would see him soon for a healthy trim.

I am a member of the Silver Revolution and follow many sisters on Instagram. This is how I met Katie. I am so appreciative of her blog!

WHAT SHADE OF EYEBROW LOOKS BEST ON YOU?

I plan on keeping my hair long, and as it changes I will be looking for advice.  I know I can count on my sisters.

Every day is an adventure. I wake up with the joy of discovering me.  I feel confident…beautiful…. and mostly blessed.  Thank you for letting me share my journey.
