Do I really want to wait years and years for it? Or even have children for the sole purpose of a hair colour? Of course not. And we aren't really talking 'granny grey' here. We are talking a deep, smokey silvery grey which isn't a sign of old age but of 'I am young and am allowed to make possibly bad hair colour decisions because that is what young people do'.
I have scoured the internet, mainly tumblr and weheartit to find some grey hair inspiration that I can possibly take into the hairdressers with me. I know it isn't for everyone - it may not even be for me but how will I ever know if I never try? I currently have a mousey blonde hair colour which is au natural but I have been thinking of dying it for a while. It's been a good few years since I dyed it back to it's natural colour after dying it blonde for many years. It is now back in great condition so why not spoil it all over again?!
I think the most accurate representation of my ideal grey is the two grey hair colours above. They are an ashy silvery grey which is just what I am hoping for. It isn't too in your face or too light, it has depth to it. I would really like some ashy tones in there so it is not like a metallic silver.
After a little browse on the internet, I came across this article on the Daily Mail website. In the article 5 women dye their hair grey to see if they can pull off 'granny locks' and they all looked wonderful. The article also gave a really good tip as to which shade of grey would suit you best. If you have blue or purple coloured veins on the underside of your wrists then a pure white grey tone would suit you. If you have green or yellow coloured veins then you would suit a steel grey tone.
After writing this post I am even more determined to dye my hair grey. It isn't for everyone but it could be for me - there is only one way to find out.
I think it looks so pretty!!! I actually thought about doing this to my hair!!! But my hair is so damaged I don't think it could go through it right now lol
