I am growing out my colour and my hairdresser puts ash highlights through so I don't get a regrowth line. He also has cut the ends every time so I have nearly got rid of all the tint I had after 6 months of not doing a colour. I am still having some highlights and a toner put on as I'm not quite there, but it's liberating not having to do the roots.and I really like the silvery colour. Ask your hairdressers advice.

Morning, I always coloured my hair but absolutely hated doing it. So I decided I would grow out the colour & see what my own colour would look like. I am so glad I had the courage. My hair is a silver white & I have only had positive comments about it. Go for it , if u really hate it it's easier enough to colour it again.

I have been growing my hair and it has started to go grey. I used a semi permanent colour on it and everyone said it took years off me. However, the colour really irritated my face and neck, so I have booked into a salon for highlights. Don't know whether I am doing the right thing, is it just better to go grey gracefully it's just that my friends tell me I look better with it coloured.
