my gray hair will look as cool as hers?

This is a new blog. I will attempt to blog at least weekly, whether I feel like it or not! I am not going to bother with a boring introduction, because if you read one of my blogs and find it interesting, you will get to know me over time! First topic: My graying hair. First of all, it's important to note that I started going gray at 15 or 16 years old. That's seriously early, folks! Anyway, I have been "mostly gray" underneath all of the hair dye since about 25 or so...I'm currently 37. Over the last few months, I have been noticing that I have a pronounced "skunk stripe" only about 2-3 weeks after coloring...with dark blondish caramel! I quit smoking about 3+ months ago in an attempt to get healthier in general for my kidos (I have a lot of health problems anyway). I started wondering what all that hair dye could be doing to me...they say it's safe, but cigarettes used to be prescribed by physicians, so I tend not to trust "them" as much as I trust my own common sense. If a chemical smells caustic, it's probably not good for me. So I found the most awesome website, http://goinggraylookinggreat.com, which has given me the courage to chop my hair off and let the gray grow out! So off I went to Great Clips (I figured what the heck,they couldn't mess it up too bad!) to get my "Jamie Lee Curtis" pixie cut. I was worried how it would look, since the nonsmoking vixen me is a curvy size 14, but I have had TONS of compliments. The best of which was a very young, very fashionable fellow "cheer mom" who said "WOW you look so young now!" YAY ME!! Anyway, I still have about an inch and a half on average of blonde on the ends which I'm anxious to be rid of...hopefully before I start my DCBS (child protection) social work internship. When it is all in, maybe I'll post before and after pictures ;)
