I am a graying baby-boomer who is a quiet unassuming person and a conservative dresser. I tend not to attract attention to myself. For this reason, I am invisible to 20-30 something sales associates in the retail world. Most of the time I don't mind because I like to be left alone when I shop. When I'm ready to pay though, they had better not ignore me. I got really loud once in Tiffany when I was passed over in favor of a couple looking at engagement rings.
That said, this is not a good enough reason to try and shave a few years off by coloring my hair. I don't have a lot of wrinkles, so I probably could pull it off. It's just not worth it to me. My work environment is filled with people of my generation, so I don't have the pressure of fitting in with younger co-workers. But I can understand your reasoning GLC, since you are much younger. I think your hair looked great gray and wondered if you'd kept it that way when you cut it short awhile back. It's a very flattering cut.
I resent that this is not an issue for men. Is anyone telling George Clooney he would look younger/better if he dyed his hair?
