Those with grey hair...

Some people can wear the grey and it looks fine, but others, not so much. I color my hair about every four months or so, because I like change. This last time I decided to go have some red/burgandy lowlights put in. I have a liscense to do hair, but don't know a lot about color. They do have a brand of color at Sally's called Grey Busters, made by clairol. Not sure how well it works, but it's worth a try. I did find out something interesting from the girl that does my hair. She said if you put in a color and it's too dark, you can use dawn dishwashing soap and it will take it out or at least lighten it. It doesn't work as well if you've had the color a while. I haven't ever tried it, so I don't kow if it works, but I'm thinking it does since the girl said she wasn't supposed to tell customers about it.

I use Herbal Essence for my nice grays before that is was Nice-n-Easy. (I've been getting gray since I was 13)

I have found that my gray hair looked yellowish when I used a regular shampoo (any brand). I bought some generic shampoo at Sally Beauty which is made to eliminate the yellow tones. It even has a conditioner that works really well on gray hair. It wasn't expensive either.

I don't like the upkeep on dye jobs. And some are very drying. One woman here at work has hair that feels like straw from over working it. I keep wondering when it will all fall out!
