The first was too pale. I think only a punk can sport that colour. But got to tell you, that sweater in the first photo is fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1196386 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 14:55:38 +0000 Freckles 1196386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous hair, yah for new hairdresser. &nbsp;You have a real handle on what suits you, go with your gut as it is awesome right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1196344 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 14:07:39 +0000 Jules 1196344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have lovely hair for any age! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1196332 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 13:51:01 +0000 Kristin L 1196332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the lowlights look great in your hair. And I'm a tad jealous of the wisteria near you. I remember it smelling it every spring and summer where I grew up.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1196295 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 11:32:06 +0000 Suz 1196295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hair colour looks beautiful now. I think the lowlights were a great idea; they add texture and movement and take away the "yellow" tinge. The wisteria is so lovely -- I am jealous (looking at more snow as I write...). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1196218 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 06:46:21 +0000 Jeanie 1196218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hair color is tricky. &nbsp;I usually get a combo of highlights and low lights. &nbsp;You and the wisteria look beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1195943 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 22:25:21 +0000 deb 1195943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hair looks great. I see what you mean about the blond, it washes you out. The wisteria is beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1195934 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 22:18:39 +0000 Anonymous 1195934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like your hair! Much better than the blonde. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1195929 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 22:10:24 +0000 Classically Casual 1195929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you hair is a lovely color, but certainly not gray. And your wisteria looks extremely happy. </p> <p>I've been working diligently at growing my mainly gray hair into a bob. But I couldn't stand the long sides anymore and not being able to walk in the wind and rain without looking like a vagrant. As of yesterday it's cut short, and it feels so good. </p> <p>Hair change is rejuvenating, don't you think, MsMaven? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1195928 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 22:10:19 +0000 rabbit 1195928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your haircolor now looks lovely and natural and so do your flowers! &nbsp;I think I'm happiest with my haircolor when it kind of accumulates a lot different strands of&nbsp;colors. &nbsp; Maybe I first got highlights, and then got a slightly different underlayer color&nbsp;later on. &nbsp;Later&nbsp;it gets sun streaked/faded a bit in parts, and then there is a root touch up. &nbsp;It all has to stay conditioned and healthy, but it looks like it grew from my head rather than a bottle </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1195923 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 22:04:23 +0000 unfrumped 1195923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your hair looks lovely!<br /> I don't use hair color now, and I'm not against it--may one day want it! But, I dread things that add more upkeep or especially that would look bad if you 're overdue-/ haircuts are hard enough to keep up with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1195904 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 21:45:35 +0000 MsMaven 1195904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Should note that hair looks lighter in bright sunlight than indoors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-update-wisteria#post-1195903 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 21:44:11 +0000 MsMaven 1195903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's been a while since I posted a hair update. &nbsp;Last August with visions of Helen Mirren hair, I consulted my hairdresser. &nbsp;Blonde highlights are the way to go, she told me. &nbsp;My silver locks will gradually mix in with the blonde. &nbsp;The first photo showed the result. &nbsp;I didn't really like it, and it was too blonde for me.</p> <p>Then in October I met up with my sisters. &nbsp;Shock--neither one dyes their hair. &nbsp;I'm the middle child. &nbsp;Both are blonder than I was and blue eyed, while I am brown-hazel. &nbsp;Their hair has gotten darker, but not a gray hair that I could see. </p> <p>Then as my hair began to grow out, I realized that my previous hairdresser hadn't been quite truthful. &nbsp;My hair wasn't nearly as gray as she kept telling me. &nbsp;So three months ago my new hairdresser and I agreed to do lowlights instead. &nbsp;I felt more like my real self. &nbsp;Now I am eight months growing it out. &nbsp;My hair is darker when I first had lowlights, and they gradually fade. &nbsp;These last photos show you three weeks since last low lights, 4+ months since last highlights.</p> <p>Bonus shots: &nbsp;(not fashion--just at home yoga pants and old tees and sweater) to show those of you who are still getting blizzards--wisteria bloomed a couple of weeks early because of warmer winter and maybe lack of water. &nbsp;</p> <p>2nd photo is 2-3 months of highlights, showing roots. </p>
