Now, to the important issue for today. Your mirror doesn't lie. It really talks silently to you if you stand staring at it for a long period of time. What it says may make you hate it or embrace it. The one that I peer in every day tells me my hair is grey/gray. I embrace this fact because it makes me feel wiser and look mature. Yes, there it is! I look good with my salt and pepper hair. When I see my stylist and she fix me up...I'm on cloud nine, eleven and twenty (lol).
I don't intend to dye it blonde, burgundy, orange or blue. If I did, I would be the biggest liar trying to hide my true age. God didn't make my hair those colors but he is gracefully telling me I'm reaching maturity when I start to see the change.
You need to know - gray is now THE color to have. Celebrities are even going out of their way to embrace gray/grey. We are not prepared to fake any longer. We will celebrate middle-age.
Take a look at the cards I'm sharing with you today:

Embrace that grey/gray. On your head as well as on your card making or scrap booking. It really will look good on you!
Sending you a hug and LOVE, Lois |
