I haven’t considered bangs....hmmm. I usually can’t wear them because they twist, turn and have a mind of their own. Now that my hair is smoothed with a Brazilian Blowout, maybe long bangs would be better behaved. It is something to consider. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/piggybacking-on-msmaven%e2%80%99s-post-of-going-gray-via-being-a-blond#post-1924487 Fri, 01 Jun 2018 13:59:17 +0000 Thirkellgirl 1924487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the color, love the outfit! </p> <p>Would you ever think about some long bangs? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/piggybacking-on-msmaven%e2%80%99s-post-of-going-gray-via-being-a-blond#post-1924277 Thu, 31 May 2018 18:13:20 +0000 LaPed 1924277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous outfit, and your hair is sooo elegant at this length.

I was born with dark brown hair with some red undertones. When I began going gray I started having my stylist color my hair. Now, more than 30 years later I am ready to be the real me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/piggybacking-on-msmaven%e2%80%99s-post-of-going-gray-via-being-a-blond#post-1924037 Wed, 30 May 2018 23:23:52 +0000 Sal 1924037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific!!&nbsp; I love the sharp bob too.&nbsp; And a lovely outfit.</p> <p>Was your hair naturally brown/brunette?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/piggybacking-on-msmaven%e2%80%99s-post-of-going-gray-via-being-a-blond#post-1924029 Wed, 30 May 2018 22:53:25 +0000 Mainelady 1924029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much Jenni, Jussie and Sterling.<br /> Elizabeth P, I told my stylist I was ready to go gray, but that I knew I couldn’t handle the skunk stripe.....I had so much gray/ white it would have been a stark contrast with my dark brown colored tresses. You are a braver woman than I!<br /> Thank you Krish! It was the first time I have worn those sandals with that skirt. I noticed the pattern play right away when I looked in the mirror, it hadn’t picked up on the similar lines when viewing my choices.<br /> Suz, I see what you are saying! Just black is looking harsher to me, so I often opt for navy now, but a black and white pattern can look really good!<br /> Thanks Lisa P, Christina, Bijou and Kathie! I still need an extra layer in the morning. My classroom is usually between 62-64 for an hour or so. I chose the jacket for the color, but found I quit liked the style with the skirt.<br /> Thank you, Angie. I had kept my hair long for a little extra security and confidence while I transitioned to my gray hair. It has been almost a year, so I was finally ready to say good by to a few inches.<br /> Thanks, Thistle and Cardiff Girl! My stylist gets all the credit for my hair color looking so good. I will be happiest when the blond is gone, but that may still be another 6 months or so.....<br /> Efbgen, yay, for finding a stylist who works with you! Having a good stylist is important and one who really listens and tries to do what you want is priceless.<br /> Thank you Jane. The combo was a happy surprise!<br /> MsMaven, the bracelet thing...I pick my outfit first, then pull a few bangles that might work....I tend to go for similar colors and mixed metals. Then I like to mix up textures. It really is just trial and error, but all my happiness pieces bring me joy, so even if I don’t get a perfect mix, I am smiling! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/piggybacking-on-msmaven%e2%80%99s-post-of-going-gray-via-being-a-blond#post-1923987 Wed, 30 May 2018 18:51:51 +0000 MsMaven 1923987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hair is gorgeous.

I definitely see the change. And the silvery white tones are so flattering with your skin! Just stunning. Love your outfit, too!&nbsp;</p> <p>I find black and white easier to wear than they used to be with the new hair. Even though black can be a bit harsh, with white it is graphic and interesting and it sure does work with grey and silver and white hair!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/piggybacking-on-msmaven%e2%80%99s-post-of-going-gray-via-being-a-blond#post-1923901 Wed, 30 May 2018 12:13:42 +0000 krishnidoux 1923901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning.<br />I like that the sandals echo the dress's pattern.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/piggybacking-on-msmaven%e2%80%99s-post-of-going-gray-via-being-a-blond#post-1923899 Wed, 30 May 2018 12:03:02 +0000 Elizabeth P 1923899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>You are so lucky to be able to grow your grey out and have it blend so well!&nbsp; It's looking great.
