I feel like choosing to dye my hair is foolish but the mousy gray color that grows out just makes me feel worse. Ladies, what do you think?

I've been dying my hair for years and a few years ago I started losing my hair until a good friend and coworker brought me a bottle of Kerinique shampoo and about using it for 3 wks I noticed new hair.and since then that's all I use its kind of pricey but its worth every penny and last about 2 months .Just wanted to let you beautiful ladies about the shampoo.And you can use it on any hair color .

Ive been dying my hair since i was 13 and only have problems when i started this flare up in april. The only problem is my hair is thinning and falling out and the dye doesnt seem to stay in any more.... its constantly washes out. Its weird i know! But i just keep on dying it lol

I Used a brand called Naturetint, from Vitacost. Although I am sure it can be purchased other places. It is more natural. It worked well. Not so harsh. And the color has lasted well. I will continue to use it. I can't stand the gray hairs showing up. I have gained so much weight from steroids, I need all the help I can get to boost my self esteem.

I'm a hairdresser and I've been coloring my hair for 35 years. What I DO KNOW is that color is a cause for a flare if you don't wear GLOVES. It will be absorbed thru the skin. I learned that about a year ago. I didn't wear gloves for years. I just don't or didn't like the feeling. Plus they pull my clients hair....well...I do now! SO what I say is Peace, Love and COLOR!!!!
