I tried to put up with the skunk line for a little while but ended up getting a pixie cut about 2-1/2 months in.

My last color was 5/23/2017. My first (shorter) haircut was July, and then I went straight-up pixie cut sometime in August.

I’m VERY happy, but it has taken a very long time to grow back my hair. The biggest challenge has been getting haircuts while I’m trying to grow out at the same time.

I’m fully gray, but I feel like I’m still transitioning because I’m not yet at the length I want.

Again, I think a LOT Of this is the confidence I’ve gained and it’s oozing out of me now, but I do think it is also the fact that I’m still young and VERY gray…and that’s something shocking and exciting for people to see.
