A silver sister is so much more than just a woman with gray hair. She’s part of an international sisterhood of women who are bucking societal pressures and doing her own thing.
All these years, Mother Nature has been spinning my hair into beautiful silver strands, and I had no idea because I was covering it up with dye. What a revelation!
To think that I spent all those years avoiding the “dreaded” skunk line, only to find out that it didn’t bother me once it started growing out for real.
It’s like being a science experiment AND being the scientist at the same time! I’m in no rush to cut off the dye – I want to keep this experiment going.
Knowing how people are, when I decided to go gray, I prepared myself for some rude or intrusive remarks from people who wouldn’t understand this journey.
It takes balls to grow your hair gray in the first place, and I feel like it takes extra big balls to walk around with a stark demarcation line for months.
I don’t care how you transition: whether you cut your hair short, or wear it long… Whether you get it blended or highlighted or opt for the cold-turkey route. Heck, I wouldn’t judge you if decided to go back to dyeing!
