It forced us to break through the root barrier, and once we did that we realised that it wasn’t so scary on the other side. Stepping away from the hassle of dyed hair and hair colors seemed like a tantalising possibility.
But the truth is that stepping into your natural grey hair is a scary thing to do. You may get berated by friends and family telling you that you have “let yourself go” or are going to “look old”.
