I love the look! Your hair looks amazing! Your stylist did an excellent job, the cut suits you to a T!

Looks great! You are very fortunate that it's coming in so gracefully!!

Your hair is looking fabulous. I love the new cut. The gray is very subtle looking; it almost looks like part of your hair's gorgeous sheen.

Looks awesome! Well done.

LOVE the haircut and the grow out. It looks fantastic!

(Ha, I was thinking - what make up are they talking about? Read a bit further and I was right.)

Wow, you have a great stylist(and hair:-))!!!Big love from me!

Your hair always looks cool. In all the time I've been on YLF I don't think I have ever seen a photo where I thought anything else!

Your hair looks fabulous, both cut and colour. No wonder you have received such positive feedback.

Aw, I'm blushing... I have to admit I've had moments of panic - maybe because my parents are arriving soon and I'm not sure how they will react - but this all helps me feel better.

I have a question for those who've gone through the grow-out. I have all these little hairs sprouting straight up. My stylist assures me they are not breakage but new growth that is just standing out because it's coarser and wild. I cannot tame it down, so it waves around like antennae and I just try to ignore it. Is this something anyone else has noticed?

Looks great! I do not even thing "grow out" when I see your hair, just a fab haircut.

Looks great!

How many months have you been growing it out? I've decided to integrate my grey with highlights (as of about 6 weeks ago) and not color my roots anymore, but for now my root line is pretty visible.

LOVE your hair.

Oh yes I did have the coarse hair problem - mine were so annoying they were either short & sprouty or short & curly (& my hair is dead straight). Not sure which was worse I still have a few curly ones around my ears but they are hidden now.

Gardenchick, it's been since the end of November. Just gritting teeth and waiting it out... Cutting in some layers really helped break up the line.

I love this, Una. It's growing out so well. I love the ombré effect and the cut.

Thanks alaskagirl. You're an inspiration!

It's been 2+ months since I colored my roots....I probably have another 5-6 before I stop seeing that line. Fun to see how good it could look at the end.

Best grow out I've ever seen!

Guess I really have been away for a long time as I totally missed this. Your hair looks fabulous, Una!

FWIW, my hair is so coarse and wild it could not possibly get coarser, so I don't notice any difference with the gray. When my dad turned gray, his hair turned a bit softer with a bit of wave like his older brother's. I could see no difference when I saw his sisters a few months back; their hair was still straight. My hair is more like my dad's family's than my mom's, and I guess like his sisters' hair -- so I should grow completely white by my mid-seventies! My dad died before he got there, and I guess it's a question whether he would have gone completely white; my mom at 90 hasn't.

You know your photos are making me want to fly to Alaska and have your stylist cut my hair! Seriously, any stunned silence is due to the awesome haircut and they are deemed speechless.

Maybe, Marley will come with me, too.

Very cool. I have long been a fan of your ombre hair. I'd be tempted to keep up with dying the ends.

Gorgeous!!!

And I am seriously jealous of your lashes, too.

It's maddening how cool your hair is!!

Wow, I want your hair. Or your stylist. Can I have both?

I think the salt-and-pepper works really well with that cut. The overall effect is both sophisticated and flattering.

Oh my, this new cut is wonderful! Your stylist really is talented. Isn't it great to have someone who's working so well WITH the grow out? I think a lot of people give up because their stylists aren't on board, and don't stretch themselves to find cuts that will work with it.

I can't remember if I had any flyaway coarse hairs or not. Sorry. Certainly not an issue now

Your stylist is top notch! I think it looks terrific and intentional.

Hey I'm just adding another pic I took on the deck today. This is feeling more and more intentional, and I am getting used to it. My mother was not thrilled, but she herself has beautiful pure white hair, so I told her I was following in her footsteps.

Bonus kitty in the sun. No need for comments - I so appreciate all your kind words already!

I've been absent but lurking lately ... but an Una hair post is irresistible. You look amazing. I love the color and the cut is fantastic. Is it possible that you look younger and even more chic? You continue to inspire me. Hair appointment Monday, and now super excited for it.
