Going Gray :: An Epilogue

I got an email yesterday from someone who found my blog because it came up in a search about transitioning to gray hair. It’s been five years since I decided to take the plunge so I thought I’d offer a photo summary.

It took me three years (see previous posts here.)

I am still glad I did it.

Here’s what I looked like before.

Here are some pics of the transition. I outline in other tagged posts why trying to bleach my hair gray didn’t turn out so well in my case.

Finally, here’s the after.

I wish so much that I’d found Jack Martin, Colorist, while I was suffering through the transition. His services are not cheap, but as my daughter says, he must use some sort of witchcraft because his work is a-m-a-z-i-n-g. He shares the products he uses and how he processes them in most of his posts. So perhaps someone closer to home and more pocketbook friendly can learn from him and subsequently try his techniques out on you. Either way, check out his amazing before and after photos on Facebook and Instagram.
