At 68 I stopped dying my hair. I am a grandmother. I didn't even know what color my hair truly was because I had been dying it for so long . . . turns out it is a beautiful shade of gray! I am a vain woman and I will tell anyone enjoy the stage of life you are in because you will never be here again! I wouldn't waste my money anymore on hair dye and embraced my wrinkles. I look in the mirror and I see my deceased mother's face. I don't want to change it today, but there was a time I did.

So good to read.
I too stopped dying my hair but I started doing it again. My hair is very long and it would take so long to get it all in the, as it turns out, kind of blondish grey it is. I keep a patch of natural colour in the back of my neck though, much to the surprise of the hairdresser ("You forgot a patch!", "I don't want to say anything, but...", and of course "You should..."). It makes me smile to see that blond patch pop out. I never was a blonde! I always had light brown hair so it's a surprise.

Hi there, two years ago, during the lockdown, I stop co!oring and highlighting my hair. This was truly a liberating experience! My grey hair is healthy and shiny. I invest in a good haircut, and use products made for silver hair.
I don't want to look like someone who is 64 and trying to look like someone I am not. I am proud of me and this stage of my life. It has nothing to do with the color of my hair, It has to do with what I feel inside.
