It really is pretty -- but will I like it all over?"<br /><br />I vote YES! I'm still playing with mine. Take a close look at my FB photo. Beatufiul silvery-white is not my good luck, but it is kinda/sorta curly, so maybe....<br /><br />You go, girl!barbaranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-403686469369759261.post-73562361505134679452010-12-03T10:56:02.775-05:002010-12-03T10:56:02.775-05:00I popped a "before" picture up in the po...I popped a "before" picture up in the post -- thought it would be a good thing to see where things are before I go to my appointment. And I guess we'll see where things are "after" -- here's hoping for something lovely. :)Christy Hardin Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12533664308954913961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-403686469369759261.post-89219623246527658582010-12-03T09:48:53.736-05:002010-12-03T09:48:53.736-05:00Christy, the lemon cookies sound wonderful...if yo...Christy, the lemon cookies sound wonderful...if you have time, please post the recipe.<br /><br />RE hair, at almost 68 my stylist says I have very little gray (my mom wasn't entirely gray/white when she died at 82, so good genes). But I'm not a redhead, I'm blonde, so just letting the highlights grow out probably would work. The problem is that my natural color is a dark blond, almost light brown, and it accentuates the wrinkles, while having lighter hair seems to minimize them. I will be very interested in your results!Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02738674077396064167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-403686469369759261.post-14582210598267379432010-12-03T09:44:15.288-05:002010-12-03T09:44:15.288-05:00Hair: If it looks like you'll have that lovel...Hair: If it looks like you'll have that lovely bright silver-white, go for it. In the meantime, try a short cut, and do the multi-color streak thing. My sis does that, and I like it on Diane Keaton. <br /><br />I'm greying slowly like my mom did, but my hair has turned a dull boring light brown. I can still do demi-perm red, which I do myself and will continue doing for a long as possible! I only need to do it every 8 weeks and it doesn't take long, but I still find it tedious... If I had beautiful silvery hair I might consider au naturale!mbarnatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299960213529713066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-403686469369759261.post-605654191150618762010-12-03T09:27:00.630-05:002010-12-03T09:27:00.630-05:00Blue Girl -- I'll pop the Honey Spice cookie r...Blue Girl -- I'll pop the Honey Spice cookie recipe up later today or tomorrow for you.

My stylist and I talked really briefly about maybe doing some highlights to even the whole length of hair out, but also cutting it a bit shorter to minimize how much of that we'd need to do. Honestly, though, I don't think I'll know what we'll end up doing until i sit down in the chair and she takes a look at it. I go to an Aveda salon because I don't like the chemical aspect of it either, and their products are a little better in terms of my skin sensitivity. <br /><br />Lately, though, the thought of doing that much for a lifetime has just started to bug me, and I think that's the bottom line for me. I love my stylist and trust her judgment on this, so we'll see what she thinks. I'll report back for you later when I get back home from the appointment. :)Christy Hardin Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12533664308954913961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-403686469369759261.post-16164923072955178642010-12-03T09:14:09.368-05:002010-12-03T09:14:09.368-05:00I am at the same place, hair-wise.

I will be anxious to see how this turns out for you. I may be right behind you.<br /><br />PS - I will send you a message on Facebook for the honey-spice cookies.<br /><br />Thanks!Blue Girlhttp://theygaveusarepublic.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-403686469369759261.post-90086519710750852452010-12-03T09:02:08.587-05:002010-12-03T09:02:08.587-05:00The cookies sound delicious!

I stopped getting my hair colored because of the chemicals (long story), and it is now growing out enough that I remember why I was coloring it in the first place! I am trying to find that balance between looking reasonably good, being as toxin-free as possible, and keeping down the expense and the upkeep. And the "how long" question is always out there, too. So, please, do tell!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00664886080822930195noreply@blogger.com
