I started going grey at 17, was naturally brunette, changed to blonde at 35 to hide my grey, just turned 41 and I’m done with dying my hair 😂 I have 2” of growth and I’m hoping it grows out faster. People have also said, you’re going to look old...🤦🏼‍♀️ I really don’t care what anyone says now, and I’m excited to see my final grey pattern when it’s grown out. Glad I found your channel 👩🏻‍🦳🤍

[@renellepenney1886]

This is my situation too !! I'm excited :)

[@crystalzacarias1829]

Did you stick with it?

[@jojorey6886]

My only regret about growing out my gray/silver was that I didn’t do it sooner because I listened to hairdressers tell me it would make me look older. Not true. Once I made my mind up about letting the dye go it didn’t matter to me what anyone had to say about it. I love my silver hair.

[@MrKongsMom]

I'm so glad it brings you joy! It should

[@cinma4890]

My hairdresser keeps telling me the same thing. You are too young. But when I see Grey on others I am like look how pretty and she insists on not for me. And you know what I realized that it’s actually best to go Grey early in life. Just my opinion Bc you can adjust to it and enjoy it and style it and do many things to it.

[@medicclasses2994]

Something is true, oldy is an attitude, if your spirit is young, you will look young. Grey is just a colour!!

People with light eyes pull Grey hair off so well.

[@jillarnold8638]

You're hair looks great and you don't look old. Some people don't feel good about themselves, and they want others to feel bad about themselves.

[@ImViviTors]

The gray hair complements your eyes so well! I also love how you did "duo palette" look with your eyes being naturally gray, your natural gray hair is on the lighter side and you matched them with gray shade eyebrows. In contrast your make up is nude bronze?.. You did put some thought into it and it works great for you! This is a great example of how someone should evaluate what they naturally have and come up with low maintenance look that works best for them!

[@MrKongsMom]

Thanks so much!

Just starting my gray journey. I flew to California to have my cousin, who is crazy awesome with hair color, lift my colored hair to platinum. I have around 4 inches of natural gray growth, and the platinum looks better with my gray growth than the brown/blond that it was before. Appreciate your video. You look fantastic!

You tube friend, you totally rock your hair. Your channel has changed a lot of things for me! My home smells amazing, I have started to take care of my skin again. I am blond and never did anything to my hair till my mid 30’s. I do have it done now but I am 57. I love how our YT family lifts each other up and is supportive of trying new things💜

I quit coloring my hair 3 yrs ago. I really agree with everything you've said! And my attitude is like yours. I've cut people & some family off for my well being. To the point of having only 1 bff & she passed last March. I don't regret losing people who I thought were my friends. So now I'm focusing as I've always done on raising my teen daughter alone. You really are beautiful!! And I love your attitude that I see!!

PREACH👋Great video and thanks for sharing your journey. I'm 43 and just started letting mine grow out once it got cold. Indoors more so I can get a sense of whether or not I'm going to be comfortable with it....we shall see...My dilemma is my hair is curly and long and only half gray. Yours is GORGEOUS!

[@ibelieveinangelsyesido7436]

Oh, Heather, it'll be glorious! My hair is wavy/curly & the new texture fits right in with that. We're already *used to* dealing with thirsty strands. I let mine grow out quite a few years ago. A tiny bit of coconut oil scrunched into curls makes any silver strands sparkle like crazy. Enjoy your hair! Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY

Haters are going to hate! I'm in the process of growing out my hair and going grey. I've bought a wig so if I have a special occasion I can make my hair presentable till I get through this process. But I'm tired of paying to have my very resistant grey colored. So cheers to us! I've made the decision and plan to follow through!

I love your attitude! Beyond how you deal with the grey ... you approach negative, non-supportive people (even if it's family), just like I do! That can be hard to do. I like how you put your own peace as a top priority.

[@MrKongsMom]

Yes! You have to. I believe that everyone can live their own life without others always needing to put their two cents in. Don't like gray hair, then keep coloring YOURS. It is no one's business to tell me what to do with my hair lol.

Hello, your hair looks great. Very well said, I love your advice thank you for sharing your pros and cons. I'm on my silver grey journey, 6 months so far and I love it! So far I haven't gotten any negative feedback, I guess it's because I have light brown hair and the colors are blending together, now I have silver, medium brown and light brown hair all dancing simultaneously with each other, it's truly beautiful and it feels healthier as well. I can't wait to see my hair when it all grows out.🤗❤

Congratulations on your gray hair journey!

[@Fluidx808]

"I don't have to color my hair anymore" - this is the biggest advantage! After years of dealing with roots/whole hair dying, it gets so tiresome. Plus the healthy aspect. You look very young for grey hair and I think it looks fab. I absolutely love grey on young women (those that do it on purpose - with a young face it looks so good). I went grey at 56 and haven't regretted it at all. Embrace the grey! One great tip!!!: I followed one woman on UTube who only colored the roots as the rest of the hair turned grey, such an easy, great transition. Even my hairstylist said it was the best way to go natural and recos this method to other clients I wear my grey proudly - at my age I think it's just fine to be your age and not be ashamed. Plus I have a young spirit and cute groovy haircuts really help.

[@theworldisavampire3346]

I'm 56 now and into my 2nd yr natural. your natural color is so much more flattering to your face and I didn't realize that until people started asking me if I had gotten cosmetic work done because my skin was glowing. it actually had nothing to do with my skin it had more to do with using unnatural hair dye when my age and face needed my softer and natural gray hair.

[@laurencemattioli2277]

Fluidx808 May I ask who you followed on utube who only coloured their hair at the roots to make the transition easier? Because I've decided to go gray at 48! Thanks so much.

[@Fluidx808]

@@laurencemattioli2277 It was a couple of years ago and now I can’t find the vid anywhere! Ugh! Anyway the concept is pretty easy. You can do it yourself or go to a stylist and ask them to do it. First off I was dying all of my hair, since most of it was already going grey, and would touch up the roots as need. I stopped dying all the hair and started just doing the roots… as the roots grow out, keep colouring them. In the meantime, the rest of the dyed hair will start washing out. There will at some point be a bit of a transition line between freshly dyed roots and the natural hair below. However it looks much, much better than having grey roots to deal with and the dyed roots do wash out. Also note I have medium to shortish layered haircuts so that helped to make it look interesting. As I said, my stylist thought it was an awesome way to go! She wouldn’t dye all of my hair grey due to the damage it would cause, so this was the best option. Good luck! I have absolutely no regrets going grey :).

I decided to grow my (90%) grey hair out about 3 years ago and it's the best thing I've ever done for myself as well! It is so freeing! I'm older than you, 53, and I started going grey at 17, pregnant with my first child, but I'm still kind of young to be this grey. Lily you, I get compliments every day! I have very short hair and people like that also. I especially get compliments when I use the joico purple shampoo and let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing, it leaves the white part of my hair a light lavender color. I get told at least 3 times a week that I look like jaime lee curtis! I wish! Lol

[@MrKongsMom]

That's fantastic! I think Jaime Lee Curtis is absolutely beautiful!

[@gwenbush6184]

I’ve decided to own my grey. Thinking of having salon help but scared to death of it getting messed up. So still flipping back and forth on letting it grow or walking in a salon dark brown and out silver. PS you’re beautiful and I love your hair.

[@MrKongsMom]

Good luck with your decision and transition! Whichever you choose. It's a very personal decision. But I love that you are willing to give gray a go! I hope you love it as much as I do.

I've also had a lot of people say not to let my hair go grey, that it will make me look old, including my hairstylist. I'm 55 and still get carded occasionally buying wine. My daughter is constantly telling me to go for it. I'm gonna go for it. I've been thinking about it for 5 years. You look GREAT, AND youthful. I notice when women take care of their health, keep their weight down and keep their hair healthy, the grey is not aging, it just looks really interesting. Thanks for sharing your journey!

[@georgiarn3915]

Thank you for sharing your journey. I started getting grey in my teens and have colored my hair for 26 years! I've considered letting it grow out for several years, but the social distancing die to Covid-19 has given me the courage to stop coloring and give my grey a chance to grow out. I'm about 3 months since my last coloring and have about 2 inches of new growth.

I also got tired of my skunk stripe , and decided to go grey. I had my hair coloured for years an auburn shade. My stylist and I thought about it and she put white highlights in my hair using the old method of a cap and crochet needle, and cut it real short. I loved it !!!! Felt like a punk rock star.... my grey would poke through and gradually it's all grey . I still get it cut quite short as I love the no nonsense about it, but....i think the bright white looks better than the grey on me....this washout colour you use has a platinum colour, would love to give that a go to see if more white would show up....i have a pink colour but haven't been brave enough to try it...lol ..love your hai and makeup

I am 62 and just made the decision in the last 2 weeks to grow out my hair. I am scared of what my natural color will be. It use to be mousy and now i fear salt and pepper. But i am going to do it.

I know my hair is going to be gross but thankfully i love hats and hair wraps etc. I can do it. Thank you for such a positive video...it really helps make the decision easier. Thanks again

I colored my hair for nearly 20 years. I'd gotten to a medium brown color. I did DIY colors from Sally's. I decided to grow out my silver hair after Hurricane Harvey. Best decision ever! I did go ahead and use a color remover product first. It said that it didn't have any bleach in it. It still gave me hot roots. I toned it with some demi that was silver/gray color. Nothing ever since then. My hair looks like an ashy light brown/dark blonde. I like the different streaks of pure silver that have appeared! I'm super lucky that mine stays ashy naturally. I don't need any purple shampoo or toner. Recently, I've thought of trying some fun colors from Guy Tang via his demi products. They don't leave a bad line of demarkation. He has so many options!

[@burgermister7580]

[@Pamela-hr9zi]

I checked out all your products they are not available right now. They must be good. Everyone must be buying.

[@swood2603]

I am on board with this. I am about 75% grey on top and front, and 35% underneath. I have medium brown hair. I have colored my grey hair for 20+ years. It is very obvious after a month of grow out, as I have a harsh line of silver on one side and brown on the other at the top of my head. And I am short, so everyone can see it. With such a high percentage of grey, box color medium and light browns make me have reddish roots now (not a problem when I had less than 50% grey). I got blonde highlights twice within the last year. Then I got silver highlights. So, it will not be as obvious when my hair grows out. It is hard on the hair to bleach down to white when you have colored it brown so frequently, so I do have some damage to my hair now (not too bad because we bleached it a little more every few months and I deep condition). I use the purple shampoo and condition weekly. It will take 3 years to completely grow out, as my hair is medium-long. I will probably get a temporary toner when I get my hair cut every 2-3 months, just to keep the brassiness of the growing out highlights down for the 3 years. Since I had to get roots done at the salon (to prevent brassiness), it was very time consuming and expensive. I was SO tired of all of that. I do not have the beautiful full silver that you have. But I cannot wait to have my natural color and no longer have to color my hair.

You may very well be my new best friend! You are delightful! I’m a film actor and have colored my hair for ages in keeping with the roles I get. I’ve considered leaving my hair alone for quite some time, but then would get a film and need to high light for the role. I have hardly any grey at all but my natural hair color is suddenly quite a bit darker than the blond I’ve been doing. I seem to have a bit of grey primarily at my temples. My hair seems to “eat” the blond color and ends up dry and lifeless. So - I’m taking the plunge - I’m going to cut a few inches off and just leave it the heck alone. I enjoyed your video and would love to have coffee with you!

Thx for this video - it shocks me that some people are so funny about giving opinions and advice on how someone else SHOULD look to make themselves comfortable or happy - or sometimes we just have certain people comment that are not self aware and say rude things or just those poor miserables that try to feel better by tearing someone else down . And that can never truly be happiness - but you know this . I wish THEY did but life's a journey lol. God bless them poor dearies- because love doesnt treat others like this ! So lol this is my honest opinion - I agree with all your content in this video , I totally love your look and color of hair ! Nature is pretty awesome all on it's own. And your hair compliments your eyes and skin tone ! Yeah ! You are young and beautiful . 😁 and how we win isnt stepping on someone's head - we all win by bringing eachother up - do you know the brain cant differentiate who's talking ? So if someone said something bad about another person - well the brain internalize's and always think it's being said about its self . So everytime a person compliments you - that person releases dopamine & serotonin - unlike the person who cuts down a person gets a dose of cortisol , and other stress harmones and a bad sense of self - truly sad .

You look gorgeous!! And make your eye color pop!! You are beautiful, those people criticize because they are jealous!! They know they have to bleach their head to look like yours!! ✨💖 It's beautiful. I'm looking forward to have it like yours

[@MrKongsMom]

Thank you so much for your sweet compliment

[@geraldinemckenna922]

Your hair is fabulous x

[@pamelarogers4908]

Luv it and I am making the transition now. Can’t wait but I will

[@seaglass8940]

I so want to do it, but the growing out process is so long! I'd feel funny at work, during that transition.

[@lenka156]

You really look great in grey! It goes very well with Your eye color. You doesn´t look old. You really look great! My skin and eye color is much warmer and my natural hair also. Now I have some gray hair and it doesn´t look good with my warm hair and skin. Maybe if all my hair will be gray, it will look better.

[@YESCA63]

Love your hair! You totally rock the grays!

[@MrKongsMom]

Thank you so much

[@kara4590]

I wonder is this the best hair style for gray hair Looks good

[@MrKongsMom]

My hair is longer now and I still love my gray. But I do miss the ease of shorter hair for sure!

I honestly needed to see this video I'm 31 starting to get grey hair and people tell me I need to change my clothing style now no more band tee shirts no converse I'm scared thats just me I have no kids I dnt feel old how people say

[@ispawndemons3977]

Growing older doesn’t mean you’re dead. You rock band tees and converse as long as you still enjoy them.

[@user-he9cg6xb9o]

oh my...your hair color is just so beauuuutiful and cool 100%, I just love it and it looks on you amazing. I would be one of the people I would have complementing you, had known you or seen you for the first time on the street! ))

[@Europa1749]

Good decision. Newsweek has an article this week about a study with 50,000 women linking hair dye to breast cancer. Just add it to all reasons for going gray!

[@elizabethharper3181]

I love your attitude. I think I'm going to try this...x

[@MrKongsMom]

Go for it! It feels great!

[@WelshIrishLady]

Honestly, this gray-hair journey has been a struggle because of the growth process. My grows so slowly and I always end up coloring it after four to seven months. I'm going to try to go through all of 2020 without coloring it, though. I've created a Pinterest board for inspiration and found a photo of a woman who resembles me. When I feel week I look at that photo and see where I could be in two or three years if I just leave it alone!

You are stunning! Love that brow color.

[@starlasell5698]

You are stunning! I am seven months into the journey, and just starting to love it! I would love a list of your favorite eye shadow palettes...I am a makeup lover, and finding most of my palettes look too warm. Thanks!

[@MrKongsMom]

Great idea!! I actually made a note of that and will do a video.

It's very uniform and even. You're lucky. Looks great. Eyebrows imho could be darker. I applaud you for going gray. I hope this trend with women continues. It's acceptable for men so it should be acceptable for women. Why does everything have to be so much harder for us?

[@TOOTSWEET61]

With my brown hair I use Brown Root spray to hide where my scalp shows through in thinner hair spots I don't see any ashy, silver sprays to use at the temples with Gray silver hair. There are hair toners and rinses but no, cover the scalp see through bits with finer hair. Do you know of anything that colours the scalp,bloke maybe using like an eyeshadow or mascara root product to color the scalp to blend with the hair. I'm not keen on the mascara hair products I find them a bit sticky.

[@MrKongsMom]

I have never purchased any of the root cover up products so unfortunately I don't have any recommendations myself.

[@janeready4013]

Loved your video. Your grey hair is beautiful

[@MrKongsMom]

Thank you so much!

[@Satsusss]

10 months in and my hair still has so much bleached blonde to grow out. Cut it up to above my shoulders so there would be less. It's looking awful right now.

[@v.c.g3246]

I’m about to turn 45 and I am through with dying my hair, but I’m still bit scared to take this step. 😰

[@rhondastewart5944]

Same here, I'm 52 & worried I will look bald from a distance. I love your hair, eyes, makeup. You're simply gorgeous. I want to try going grey👍

[@crossstitchbutton]

I love your hair your eyes just pop! so beautiful, stay safe xx

[@Evolve_with_jen]

I am at the point where I am seriously contemplating going gray. Have been dying my hair for 35+ years. The virus has kept me from being able to see my hairdresser and I have a good two inches of grey root. My hair is collarbone length I wouldn’t want to just grow it’s out. Will need to bleach it to do grey. What color did you use on your brows? I see the brow product in the box below. It’s on serious sale. Is it being discontinued

[@MrKongsMom]

Yes, it is unfortunately.

[@kirstiwinn3131]

I am on the fence about going gray and which way to achieve it . Thank you for your video.

[@MrKongsMom]

There are lot's of great options. Take your time and pick what you think will work best for your situation
