Just had my haircut yesterday. Quite short. Went to my hairstylist who gives me excellent cuts that look and grow out well for a few months. She pointed out the 1 grey strand of hair amongst my naturally black hair.

I genuinely have no interest in dyeing my hair because the amount of care required to keep coloured hair (based on what I hear first-hand from others) conditioned and healthy, then dealing with the colour fade / roots issues, etc. I'm 49.

I have 4 other sisters younger than I --with the youngest at 39. None of them have coloured their hair either. Yea, there maybe the odd silver strand if you look hard enough. But their hair is still black.

Do you /have you coloured your hair? And how long now and how often? What is your natural hair colour now and what is the dyed colour?
