Do you still colour your hair?

@michellelyman7092 Год назад

I never have, it went from blonde to white over time

@juliecalder7058 Год назад

I don't color my hair. I'm almost 60 and it's still dark brown. I inherited this trait from my dad, who was just turning salt and pepper when he died in his 80s. The down side is I get lots of snark from people who assume I am dying it, and shame me for not being "natural". As women, we just can't win.

@cambrady2662 Год назад

Yes Seila I do, but rarely. I did Biology at the so I understand the effects. I wear wigs sometimes when the grey is alot. If its just a little I may use black mascara to touch up my hairline at the front. My hair is also getting thin up top and I am having hot flashes. So when they leave my hair limp, I pull on a wig and head out. Tee-hee.

@Melaniexb1 Год назад

Yes I do and its a med brown But wow what an eye opener you shared with us! I am just gonna get my thyroid US because i noticed this last 14 months it is noticeable getting bigger!

I grew out my blonde highlights during the COVID lockdown - and mine is definitely platinum. It’s very white. Most days I love it. Some days I still hate it because I feel older when I’m in a group. But my hair definitely feels healthier. I’m 63. And I’ll never go back to color!😊

@wendyhouses Год назад

I stopped dying my hair during the pandemic and am so glad I did--turns out my natural dark auburn hair complements my skin colouring far better than any box dye. I'm focusing on hair health by taking collagen and biotin supplements, using a chemical free shampoo bar, rinsing with apple cider vinegar, using a Mason Pearson hairbrush, finding a simple cut that suits me, and getting regular trims. Now at 54 I'm getting more compliments on my hair than I've ever had in my life. Thanks for the great content, Sheila!

I stopped coloring my hair 5 years ago and I saw my hairstylist frequently to cut off the multiple colors and layers I had. I did this for 6 months and I ABSOLUTELY love my salt and pepper hair ! 😍😍💕My hairstylist loved my new look, as well and she was such an encouragement in this process. I look MUCH younger, as a result. Be encouraged, Sheila ! You’ll be gorgeous.

I quit coloring my hair when I moved and no longer had my best friend (who was an excellent hairdresser) do my coloring for just $25 max. Sticker shock convinced me and I discovered I had gorgeous white hair under all that dye. I also quit cutting it and just wear it pinned up. What a feeling of freedom.

@yvonnekelly4883 Год назад

Going the natural hair route is a little scary and definitely takes some time to get where you want it to be. I was 68 before I took the plunge, but am very glad I did and receive compliments all the time on my color. Good luck with your process.

@renafielding945 Год назад

I stopped about 15 years ago and I like having the white blonde hair (cotton top) I had as a toddler in the fifties. I was so surprised!

@ruthannemackinnon588 Год назад

That dyed black & super dark brown hair over 60 ages most women. I noticed this in my patients while I was in the 40's & immediately decided to stop coloring. With rare exceptions your natural hair color is best. The chemicals damage hair at a time when our hair naturally thins and is much more fragile.

@PolishedAfterSixtyYvette Год назад

I decided to go grey about 3 years ago. I worried about the affects of coloring my hair. I’m so glad I did it-I LOVE my hair the way it is now, I’m now 66. I hope your grey journey is good for you. 😊🙏🏻

@StylebySheila Год назад

I think it will be. Thanks for the encouragement.

@cmac9248 Год назад

I stopped dying my hair earlier this year , was easier for me as I am blond , still have a way to go . I was inspired by a friend of mine ( who had black hair ) and was developing an allergic reaction from her hair dye ( even the “natural ones”) so she embarked on the journey from black to gray , it took her two plus years and a rainbow of colours to transition ! But I admire her conviction ! She looks just as beautiful gray as she did when she had dark hair ! So much more liberating ✨ Best of luck to you Sheila as you embark on your transitional path! Your are beautiful both inside & out …and you will rock it every step of the way 👏👏👏

Thank you! I have no idea how it will look but I"m looking forward to it.😍

When I decided to grow out my hair color, my hairdresser suggested heavily frosting/streaking my hair with a platinum/white color. My white roots blended with the streaked color … I had no need to cut my hair. It was very attractive throughout the growing-out process. Something to consider.

Hi Sheila, that's so important that you shared your hair journey. Years ago I heard that black dye causes dis ease. Its such a shame this country doesn't care about chemicals in food, air, hair dyed and terrible meds. Good luck and I'm sure you'll look beautiful however your hair is. Support here!!!

I can't wait to see your transformation, Sheila! So many of our current beauty practices are toxic to our internal environment. Seeing you take charge of your inner wellness is so inspiring. Making these changes isn't easy, but it's deeply gratifying on a host of levels. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to walk this path with you. It's a liberating journey. Can't wait to see your show next week!

looking forward to your new hair style too. I had dark Burnette as a child. I colored my hair from 39 is to 64ish. I went light brow, to blonde to my natural. I am so blessed with my silver and dark natural color. However, I do miss the darker color. I did look younger to me. But, I don't want all those chemicals either. I am always looking for an attractive style and have not as yet found that one I feel my best with. love your videos.

Congratulations on your decision. It's not an easy decision to change what we've looked like for most of our lives. In a way, it feels like we're losing who we are. But you're so smart to make this change for health reasons and I have no doubt your new look will be beautiful on you. I've been trying to use clean beauty and makeup products more often, but haven't gotten up the courage to give up dying my hair yet. I hope your journey will give me the courage to do so!

Can't wait to see the new look! I think you will look great with short hair. I quit coloring my hair about a year ago.

Good luck in your transformation!

Hi Sheila, I am also in my 60's and continue to color my hair. My natural hair color was dark brown almost black and I continue to color it this color. I am getting to the point where I am ready to let it go gray. Too much to keep up with the re growth etc. I applaud you for sharing this with your viewers. You are striking with your dark hair as you will be in gray hair. You are very stylish and I look forward to following you in your journey and I might be doing the same.

@angelinekilborne34 Год назад

My hair was light brown/dishwater blond. When my hair was shoulder length I started with "adding color" started with streaks of ombre up to a full head. Last time I was pink, purple, teal and blue. These were temporary color although my white hair absorbed and held it for months. Had my hair cut into a bob. Now in a pixie. I have white naturally curly hair. May add touches of color again later. I'm 63 and had fun with the colors.

@suecowley2599 Год назад

Good for you Sheila, you will love your natural hair colour! After I stopped dying my hair and embraced my greys, several of my friends followed suit and they all love their natural colour.

@miksorg60 Год назад

I feel your conflict! I had dark hair all of my life and it grew too fast to maintain when I started going white. I haven’t gone natural, but I am now blonde. I hated it for a couple years. Now I look at past pictures and don’t like the dark color at all. I didn’t cut it for the transition. Just gradually lightened it and use highlights. Not natural but no dark hair dyes.

@YOLONOW5280 Год назад

Black and red (my former hair dye) is indeed bad per my oncologist. I developed a rare form of lymphoma on scalp rarely seen outside the body. I stopped immediately after dying my hair light blonde twice. I didn’t want to cut my hair so the blonde worked well to grow out my silver. You will find that your natural color will blend beautifully with your skin tone. Wait until you discover the beautiful colors that look stunning on your natural hair such as white, cream, fuchsia and green. I get more compliments with my natural hair than ever with the red. Best of luck with your journey. Silver hair is the new power color!

I most definitely challenge fashion rules. I am 69 years old and am 4’10” in height. I often dress somewhat classic (skinny or flair jeans, black or ivory top, blazer, and flats or heels); however, I love going for an edgy vibe which may include my Doc Marten platform combat or Chelsea boots, and a men’s jacket. I love wearing a black ribbed mini dress with tights, a cool belt, men’s jacket or pea coat, and my chunky Doc’s or Chelsea boots. I do wear flowy dresses with my boots, at times, as I occasionally like that juxtaposition of the contrasting styles. Fashion is just fun and playing with unexpected looks, especially at this age, brings me joy. I spend a lot of time experimenting with different looks and just embrace the creativity of fashion and style. I don’t take fashion so seriously as to subscribe to do’s and don’ts but just see fashion as an expression of art in which we get to be the canvas! The older I get, the more I find I don’t want to be limited by societal rules and expectations, particularly in regards to what I choose to wear. I guess I have become a bit of a rebel as whenever I see fashion videos of what women shouldn’t wear after “a certain age”, I’m like…”Oooo, let me get some ideas of some funky styles to try out”! I am kinda loving this stage of life…I don’t have to conform to social expectations and I FINALLY, got the hair color that I have always wanted…naturally….woo hoo…(for the most part) aging rocks!!!!

@Off_the_clock_astrophysicist Год назад

I do color my hair because I am just too young to go grey. Though being lazy, I am currently 2 inches gray, or more specificaly salt and pepper. It ages me by 2 decades so I really need to get my act together and get those greys covered. Unfortunately, darker hair makes my eyes pop. Out of laziness (and also concerns about dying my hair too frequently from a young age - first grays appeared when I was 25), I have gone for lighter browns. But dark brown really does look the best on me. So it's a struggle. I wish I were 6'1 instead of 5'1, so people were not constantly looking at the top of my head.

@davidsonjudy52 Год назад

@kathym7538 Год назад

Great video, Sheila! Making the decision to stop coloring is not an easy one. I took the same route as you: cut my dyed (dark brown) hair short and grew out the cut and remaining color. It was a long, awkward process, but I have not regretted it at all. Natural hair is so much more interesting and dimensional, and healthier, too. Mother Nature knows what she's doing.

Good for you, Sheila! I stopped colouring my hair last December, and I think the hardest part is making the decision to stop colouring. I cut my hair very short (like you are going to do) and I’m thankful that my husband supported my decision. One never knows what your ‘new’ hair colour will be like until it grows out, and I was pleasantly surprised that mine was silver streaked. I’m looking forward to seeing the ‘new you’ next time. I also like your other tips too - thanks for your videos.

I stopped coloring my hair 3 years ago. I did it cold turkey which means I just stopped coloring and let it grow out. I also have long hair and I didn't want to cut it off so it took 2 years for the transition to get far enough for me to cut off the faded dye. You are a beautiful lady and I'm sure you will look great with a short style. You've got this.

After 14 years I stopped colouring my hair. It lasted half a year until my silvery-grey hair had grown out even with my short haircut. In between I got red hanks, but nevertheless it was a hard time. Then I changed my style and bought red glasses and more colourful clothes. I am 60 now and see that now I can wear colours which I could not wear before, even black now fits better to me. I wish you a good change

@pamb2868 Год назад

I stopped coloring my hair about five years ago. Now after hearing this, I’m glad I did. I have had enough health problems about eight years ago. I don’t have my pituitary gland. I had a tumor around it and had to have it removed. Then I had colon problems which meant two more surgeries. And the anesthesia isn’t great for your hair either. Then I had a hernia. Which I had to have surgery on. I then had a lot of skin hanging on my abdomen. So I had a mini tummy tuck. I haven’t had a surgery for four years now. And I’m so happy. I have had my hair short most of my adult life. I have natural curly hair. Which means I have no control when it starts to grow out. I tried that a few years ago. And I couldn’t stand the frizzy hair I had. So it’s been short since. I’m still waiting for my hair to go gray. I’m 63 and I figured it would be gray by now. I started coloring my hair in my thirties. Now that I want it to be gray, it’s still a lot of brown. I know I don’t look good in black hair. I put color on once and it went really dark. I had to call my aunt, who was a hair stylist, and ask what to do. I was going to a wedding in a few days. And I looked so washed out. So I kept coloring it light brown. And when I was young my hair was almost black. But as you get older, and in my thirties, my coloring started to change. I don’t think I make any of the mistakes you mentioned. I put a black shirt on today, and I didn’t really like it. So I switched to a navy blue and it looked so much better. I don’t wear any big prints, and I haven’t for years. I have bought some tops that were cropped. I didn’t know it until it arrived at my house. And it went to my granddaughters. And only one of them will wear a cropped top.

@Solidrock-jq6rp Год назад

I stopped coloring my hair in 2016 & although it was hard at first, it got better as time went on & got a few flattering haircuts along the way. I have NEVER regretted it. In fact, I had a few nightmare type dreams that people were trying to color it again & I was totally upset. I absolutely love my natural hair. I now wear it longer but I enjoy it & I think it makes your skin look younger. Upkeep on my hair is so easy now.

How very exciting, you get to do a refresh on your hair! I don't color my hair; I've always enjoyed its natural hue, gray/silver and all (although, I did briefly got it colored a gorgeous shade of deep blue during one of my midlife crises, lol!). My mother had natural black hair and started to gray early in life, so she dyed it at home. She wound up what I call "up a tree": there came a point in her life when the color just looked a little too harsh, but she couldn't reconcile the idea of going natural (I think she would have rocked it!). I'm excited to see your transformations and how they will affect your clothing style :)

Benefitting from your tips. So thankful! Grew my hair out over the winter and during the pandemic. I am retired so hats, scarves and headbands helped a lot when I went out. You can do it!

When it frustrates you use gel to make it look different.

Good for you stopping the hair colour! I coloured my hair for 15 years. During most of that time I worked with the public. Stopped in 2018. My hair was light brown, and the hairdresser put blonde highlights in so the demarcation between the new growth and the coloured hair wasn't as noticeable. Yes I did go quite short, but if definitely was a faster process that way. There are quite a few you tubers who have shared their journey going grey if you are interested.

I'm 52 and haven't dyed my hair for 9 yrs. Grew out as much gray as I could cope with and had a really short hair cut, by far the best thing I've ever done..

@Laura-rx9mp Год назад

I also read in a magazine that colouring your hair can be bad for you. Now I haven't coloured my hair for just over 20 years

@StylebySheila Год назад

It is bad for you, that's why I stopped doing it.

@veeherreraJanecka Год назад

Thank you ! I dye my hair “rich dark cocoa”. But maybe I do need to go lighter. Great videos 💎

@Lisa-sp5if Год назад

I do have to say though, that honestly , I do look really really good in black. It’s my best color I think!❤🙌🙌🙌

@StylebySheila Год назад

That's great!

I'm one year no dye and let my very gray hair grow. I had the color of hair yours is. I decided to let the demarcation come in and not fight it with lightening the hair as this will actually make hair very brittle. I only trimmed to a chin length bob. I use bobby pins to pin some of it back and that breaksup the line a little but I plan to just let it grow naturally. My hair is so much more healthy, less hair loss, and overall just best for me. I had deveoped so much hair loss, rashes and burning from dying my hair that I just had to stop.

@katarinaprais9399 Год назад

short hair is more becoming on a older person. I went cold turkey from dark brown to gray in 3 months. It is freeing and healthier not having to worry about dying my hair every few weeks. My hair is short and sassy. I love it. Go for it.

@mustangkarrie Год назад

I feel your pain- over 60 and saying goodbye to the black hair- I am cutting next week and lightening 😢

@b.emmert2129 Год назад

My favorite Aunt had beautiful white hair and could wear it off her face in a bun. To me that was the height of elegance. Maybe I will find my courage following you. Thank you for your willingness to share the experience with us.

Thank you!

@andreaarias2085 Год назад

Yes. I still color my hair. I use medium ash brown. Am considering letting my hair color go silver!

@Rayvane55 Год назад

I stopped coloring my hair back in January 2001. I was in my early 40s. I started getting gray/silver hair at 15. Graying early is a common thing in my family. As my hair grew out and i had cut the ends off as it grew, my hair was silver white. Today it is nearly all silver white, and I couldn't be happier. I've had more compliments from men than women. My hair is healthier in its natural state.

@JudyCurtis818 Год назад

I stopped coloring my hair about 10 years ago. I have never regretted it. I have some silver at my temples, but very little throughout my whole head. The cost savings is substantial. I went through chemo/radiation in 2020. It grew back slowly and I have worn it super short ever since. I did have a wig in a short hair style, but it didn’t work well as I found it too warm.

@margarettaylor7918 Год назад

Hi Sheila cant wait to see your new look, i bet it will be fabulous!...you will look transformed! I enjoy your videos and your clothes...Best wishes, from Margaret in South Australia, by the beach!!!!

@StylebySheila Год назад

By the beach sounds great!

@FrenchTwist Год назад

Good choice... the very dark looks artificial and harsh. I slowly moved to lighter hair colors then went totally grey and now I not only get a lot of compliments, I look a LOT younger

@tl2940 Год назад

I am no longer coloring my hair. I had strands of gray coming in so I thought highlights would be the answer. The bleach was so damaging to my hair it started breaking off like crazy. I have cut my hair shorter to cut as much of the damage off as possible. After 6 months my hair looks so much better and feels great. I will just gray naturally from this point on.

@StylebySheila Год назад

That's the other problem with changing the colour from dark to light, the bleach is very damaging.

@karenmuirhead5357 Год назад

So glad you are putting your health before everything…. Cancer is a beast… You will have a beautiful look 😊

@MValerie444 Год назад

Sheila… wishing you the best on your new hair adventures! (Yes, look at it that way 💇🏻‍♀️). It will be exciting, different and you may or may not like it. (You can always change it again differently🙂). For myself… I was a natural blonde, became hypothyroid and lost a lot of hair. Decided to dye it auburn and let it grow long. In our culture, we are judged on our age and looking older discriminated against. Oh I would prefer to think differently but have seen it over time, including during my own youth . So , I will keep warm long locks as long as I can. Suits my skin tone better I think. Best of luck to you and I hope your silver locks will look lovely on you. I bet they will. xo

@StylebySheila Год назад

You're right, there are always options if I'm not satisfied with how it looks.

@wendywilson4527 Год назад

I am naturally blonde and have never dyed my hair. I am nearly 62 and still my natural colour. I have very sensitive skin so would be very worried about dying my hair. No sign of white hair yet but I accept it can't go on like this forever. My friends say I am so lucky as dying their hair for years has cost them a fortune. I am so pale I worry how I will look with white hair but I have to accept I am old now.

@CB-vg1wq Год назад

Hello Sheila! I really appreciate the effort you made in this video. I agree with most of your ideas. I have to tell you, you have the most beautiful green eyes- they are unique! The rarest eye color. Anyways, I agree, black hair is not the right look. Go for a dark or medium brown. You will be surprised how much that warms and makes ladies look younger. I agree with black coats - just too stark. Go for navy, charcoal gray or camel - so warm. Also, a few years ago, there were pea coats that had peplum flare - they were so feminine and "hide" a tummy! I suspect they will be back. I agree with the 'young' styles on older women. Women get this false notion that if they were what 20 year olds are wearing - they will look twenty. No. Does not happen. The obvious contrast between older and younger person gets accentuated. However, you do not want to look frumpy, either.

@joannvanhorn6928 Год назад

I colored my hair for years & when i stopped it only took a few months to get to all gray because I wear very short hair. I love my hair now!

@StylebySheila Год назад

Lovely! I love to hear that.

@deborahriddle7763 Год назад

One other comment, when I did go silver, had to brighten my makeup with more intense blush, lipstick and pinker base. Your skin is beautiful and will adapt well to your hair color change.

@paulandcindybrown426 Год назад

I’ve been silver for many years. You will never regret it. ❤️

@glamourgirl1962 Год назад

I stopped coloring my hair several years ago. Then discovered my natural silver is so pretty. My profile photo is my natural color. I really like it and wish I’d let it go sooner.

@janet-zk2kl Год назад

I made the decision also for better health to stop coloring my hair but I hate the gray. It makes me look 10 years older. So I started wearing newsboy caps and get many compliments on those.

@StylebySheila Год назад

I haven't heard of that.

@littletez85 Год назад

I stopped coloring at 46. By then I had colored my hair gray (at least the upper part as it was in style and i wanted to try it)I liked it so much! However, since my hair is black getting my hair so light was damaging my hair. When it grew out I noticed I had a lot of grays (not so close together but like highlights) So, I decided to go natural. I did go shorter to get rid of the color I had on it before (was not gray at that time ... long story!) and since i already had about 3 inches of growth it didn't take that long to transition. Now, I'm almost 51 and I've been wearing my natural hair color for years. I get tons of compliments as so many people actually think my hair has been highlighted but i let them know right away that it's natural. I love my hair! I even wish I had more gray and less black. Go ahead and cut it short as the shorter it is the less time it will take and after that you can let it grow out.

@StylebySheila Год назад

Shorter makes is easier for sure. I suspect when the grey starts coming in noticeably I'll be getting it cut shorter.

@jackiegardner8729 Год назад

Sheila, you will be fabulous & stylish no matter what your hair color😊

@StylebySheila Год назад

Oh thank you! So sweet to say.

@jojokat777 Год назад

I stopped dying my hair when I was 36 years old. I started with silver coming out when I was 18 years old. I dyed my should length hair auburn since I loved red hair. It was hard growing out my hair it looked awful. When it grew about 2 inches I got the rest shopped off. My husband at the time had dark brown hair past his shoulders, so we looked odd together. My husband hated my red hair and encouraged me to stop dying my hair and let it grow out silver. He didn’t have any gray hair at all so I was hesitant. I took the dive into my natural hair and I’m so glad I did. I get stopped all the time by both men and women stating how much they love my silver hair. I’m 67 now and continue to get compliments when I’m out and about.

@lindenj6155 Год назад

Funnily enough I could never wear black when I was younger. Now I'm in my sixties and a 'silver sister' I find it quite flattering.

@StylebySheila Год назад

You're one of the lucky ones.❤

@FrenchTwist Год назад

I switched to grey easily over night and it was fine

@jcool4358 Год назад

Good luck with the short hair cut..you're brave. It was probably take some getting use to after having longer hair. I have seen different women try to go grey and do not like it.

@StylebySheila Год назад

I know, it'll be a big change and I might not like it. We'll see.

@jcool4358 Год назад

@@StylebySheila it's more difficult than you think. Wishing you the best. You seem quite determined. Can't wait to see the new cut.

@cathysamborn4709 Год назад

I am going to miss you hair color, it really is flattering on you. I tried black once it wasn't a great look on me but it was fun to experiment.

@StylebySheila Год назад

Me too.

@m.b.ortega544 Год назад

I am glad you are ditching the toxic black hair dye. I agree, chemical hair dye is really bad for health. I am in my mid-forties and are letting my grey just grow into my auburn hair. I care about having hair now it is thinning, the color is irrelevant. My health is much more important than trying to chase youth.

@StylebySheila Год назад

So true,
