Is male hair different to female hair ...?

Male hair is definitely different to female hair. It is much cheaper to cut male hair. (Or at least DH’s haircuts are a darn sight cheaper than mine). Bone of contention alert.

I have tried several of these grey enhancing shampoos, not very impressed by any of them. What do you ladies think?
I am completely white at the front now . On a good day I convince myself it's platinum blonde.

Grannyknot I am so jealous. I long for my gun metal grey hair to go silver. My mum's was silver as my age as was her mum's. Silver is so chic now.

Hm999 I think it depends on what your colouring is (or was!) to start off with. I have quite a sallow skin and my natural hair colour before I went grey, was dark brown. So I feel that my silver hair is draining against my skin (or perhaps it is because I was ill with a bad cold for two weeks and looked in the mirror and all I saw was an old, old woman with white hair!)

Granoftwins,yes probably was garnier☺

I think silver hair is more attractive than grey

DH and I have always used the same shampoo, used to be cheapest supermarket shampoo, but now I have so many skin sensitivities it is an organic shampoo, currently from Holland and Barrett because the colours of the bottles match the bathroom decor.

When washing up liquid first came on the market, I washed my hair with it because it was cheaper than shampoo.

I have used washing up liquid occasionally in the past when I was out of shampoo, but I imagine it is harsher than shampoo, unless of course it's Fairy Liquid!

Recently I also used by mistake, bodywash cream - I was in the shower and picked up the wrong bottle. It worked OK though.

I have often been tempted to try men's reducing grey shampoo but what would it do for hair that is coloured but white underneath ?

I always thought the myth about lice preferring clean hair was put about so we didn't have to feel so disgusted telling the school that our own kids had nits.
