I've also stopped dying my hair and found that I need a lipstick to stop myself looking washed out. The problem for me is finding the right colour now as I never used to wear lipstick - have you found you need to change your make up colours to better suit your hair?Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535095160545442925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092223141967556234.post-39954021725290592702015-11-20T09:42:29.529-05:002015-11-20T09:42:29.529-05:00I love the hair.

I know you'll love it after you've enjoyed the simplicity of it for awhile. I think we both look marvelous! heehee! I wouldn't go back to coloring it if someone offered to do it free! It's liberating!!! And I remember getting mine cut very short to get the last of the blond off too....it will grow fast! I promise!

I think you look fantastic!! Maybe a little hair gel or mousse to settle the hair a bit, but the silver just looks right with your face colouring. My mom used to use a product called "Silk & Silver" and it would take away any yellowing she had in her hair and add a bit of depth. It looked nice. I really like this cut on you though, I think the short hair suits your pretty little face ;) And that dress??!! Gorgeous! I've always loved that colour (perriwinkle blue isn't it?), and you are going to look so elegant with the new dress and hair colour. <br />My own progress is so slow. Grey/black hair about four inches down from the top and fading brown hair below. My face is so round that the very short look doesn't look so good on me. I recently got a nice cut though, and my hairdresser is sympathetic although she doesn't have any solutions for the transition. I'm wondering if I'm going to hate it when it's all finished, but seeing how great you look now will keep me going!<br />WendySeptember Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092223141967556234.post-54526804598008427192015-11-08T06:43:48.260-05:002015-11-08T06:43:48.260-05:00You have such pretty blue eyes.

Being gray myself, I guess I appreciate the natural look in other women too. I even like your haircut. And I don't think it looks old by any means. It will look so nice with the blue dress. In fact you will be surprised how much looks good with gray hair. My hairdresser tells me so many are coming in for gray hair (even if they are young) or to go natural. I hope you come to like it eventually! It works for senior discounts too. :-)podsohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14880888514207597761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092223141967556234.post-20052506510950315852015-11-07T06:54:30.263-05:002015-11-07T06:54:30.263-05:00Well, I for one, absolutely love your very short h...Well, I for one, absolutely love your very short hair!

I think you look adorable. I have too many cowlicks to have really short hair, so it's chin length and requires styling all the time: I'd love to have a style like yours: great for showcasing earrings and so much easier to care for, in general. Enjoy your new look: there's a sophistication about it, yet also reflects a young, free spirit.

I used to have my hair a lot like that ("she sighs wistfully"), but I had to give in and grow it. I have fine, very limp hair that refuses to do anything but lie flat, so a few years ago I grew it out and wear it in a bun... much lower maintenance. Just like my granny used to wear :).

And I've grown to love my silvers, which are getting whiter every year; natural highlights! Your cut is edgy and works well with your face, and I just adore the color! I find going a little cooler and brighter (think silvery grays, cool blues and bright colors) works wonderfully with gray hair. Plus lipstick, of course, since the gray can wash out our skin tone.
