[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 302216, member: 1233"] I have a LOT of gray hair. My naturally dirty dishwater brown/blonde hair is also coming in very very dark or very very silver. It is strange but not a big deal to me. I have it cut every 12-18 months whether I need it or not. I have these horrible wispy hairs at the front where bangs would be. they are NOT something I want but something I tolerate. They don't grow more than 4 inches ever. I don't do anything to style them and they still are that length. Can y'all tell they annoy me greatly? LOL!!! I cannot strongly enough recommend that you NOT use the blue shampoo. It frequently leaves that blueish tint that makes you look about 90. If you want to go blue use a dye and go all the way blue! Instead you should get PURPLE shampoo. It will make the gray pretty and shiny and will not make it blue or purple colored. Walmart carries the Jhirmack brand for gray hair. It is about $3.50 here for a large bottle and it is very moisturizing. It really makes a big difference. Even the stylists here use purple shampoo instead of the blue stuff. You simply cannot look worse than husband's biomom. In almost 20 years I have NEVER seen her with less than 3 distinct colors in her hair. Not blended like highlights. The bottom 3"-6" are one faded icky over processed color. The middle 3"-4" is a totally different color - also very frizzy. Then the top 3" or so is an even different color. She also perms it herself. She brags that she has NEVER "wasted" money on a salon or paying someone to "do" her hair. It really really shows!! She also swears that conditioner is a racket designed to make you spend money on something you don't need. (When husband and I met she said the same thing about her stove and was trying to get husband's sis's husband to take it out and cap the gas line. Yes, she was planning to get rid of the stove. Since she doesn't believe in microwaves she would not ahve any way too cook other than an electric skillet and a crockpot. She is a certified whackjob, Know what I mean??) So don't feel too bad about your orange. If you can find Prell or Finesse shampoo they will help take that color right out of your hair. Finesse can also destroy a perm so if you perm don't use it. That was my unhappy discovery when Finesse first came out. [/QUOTE]
