The Great Gray Debate

For twenty plus years now, I have been a brunette fighting nature which wants me to be gray. Dyeing my hair an assortment of brown shades & such, I decided to let a professional do the job to keep it looking more natural. We all hate seeing those women that have the skunk hair (white strip down the middle of their head) parade around. If I am unable to get in for an appointment, I become one of them. I wantto put a bag over my head then or wear wild clothing to draw attention away from the hair.

This week I have been contemplating what to do about it. Shall I go gray? Is there something I could ‘invent’ to put on my part to cover the gray until it gets so bad I have to color it or cut it off. Shall I cut it all off now to ½ inch & look like a cancer survivor? Then when it grows out I am there! My kids wouldn't know me.

Yesterday walking out of the store two ladies nearly bumped into me that had made the ‘change’. Two more were driving by in their cars that were also gray headed. Wouldn’t you know that my dream last night was about Catherine Peterson, another great gray head. How would I look with a gray starfish shaped streak on my crown? The decision has to be made, but I need your help, your vote or opinion.

It would be easier if we were to move. I could be any color I wanted blonde, streaked, gray, bald or red. The new ward wouldn’t know anything else. Stay brunette until I turn sixty, move, cut all my hair off or go gray? I need your input for my great gray debate.
