You are very lucky coolgran,my hair is thinning and dead straight, never looks good. I say go for whatever you want to do, purple sounds good to me. There is a poem about growing old disgracefully and wearing purple isn't there. ?
Go for it. envy

I'm sorry, this post was meant to be on Ask a Gran, and I don't know how to change it.

I'm 67 and,wear my hair in a layered shaggy-ish style coming to just below my ears. A little longer on one side with an asymmetrical fringe. It's various tones of champagne blonde, at least that's what it says on the Nice 'n Easy packet !!

I've got a notion for a bit of funky colour. I've often had caramel foils, a couple of chocolate foils, etc.but not for a while. I'm thinking of getting perhaps a 'slice' on one side. Sort of like a Mallen streak but on short hair..... could be brown, or copper, even aubergine ....dare I say purple !! If I'm brave enough for purple....

I've looked on line but it's always young models. Or the older models haven't used colour in this way.......perhaps that should tell me something smile

Do any of you have a little bit of a rebel showing in your shortish hair cut/colour. I'd love to hear what you've done smile

My hair is easily looked after, just blowdry and tousle it a little.
