Can Embracing Gray Be A Revolution?

10/20/2024

I recently changed hairdressers.
She did a great job (see me new profile pic.)

Yet, like all hairdressers, she tried to convince me to add highlights.

"It will make you more luminous," she said.
"It will cover your gray," she added.

When you see me on Zoom, you can't see the gray.
But it's there - at my temples, just like some of those sexy men people love.

Yet, on me, the world doesn't find it sexy.

They see it as something to cover up.
Something to hide.
Something to pretend away.

Don't get me wrong, I have done my share of playing with color in the past.

But I don't anymore.

To be honest, I don't even know when women normally go gray.

Do you?

The other day, a fellow traveler in the world of non-hair dying said, "I think it would be a revolution if all women stopped dying their hair."

And I think it would.

What it tomorrow morning, we all woke up with our true hair color?
What would the world think?
What would the world do?
