My daughters and many friends are now coloring their hair.  After all, it's summer and their hair is changing anyway in the sun.  My favorite happens to be the pinkish reds I am seeing these days.
The last time I colored my hair it was a sort of dark mauve.  At that time I had to conclude that the dye was giving me a rash.  I went into mourning because it had been my last ditch effort to change my hair.  I had run through all the different tints and dyes and hennas one by one, getting a rash from each.
I never got to frost my hair.  That would have been next.  I was afraid I would be permanently damaged.  Each rash seemed to be accompanied by increased hayfever or whatever and my last go-around had been debilitating.
Fortunately, my gray came in stripes.  At first I was appalled, but now I am learning to comb and curl it to show it off in different ways.  In short, I am playing with it.  So now I am happy.
The ability to play with it was all I wanted anyway.
