Got a haircut this week! Since my peluquero of more than 20 years sadly died of Covid in early 2021 it’s been tricky because I am an annoying drop in client and Joaquín never minded that. All I ever want is a quick wash and trim (dos dedos), no blow dry or styling, it takes less than 15 mins. BUT I have to be on my way home (wet hair) and so I drop in when the timing is just right. These days it usually takes a couple of tries, and this week I lucked out.
Looks like I am one trim (maybe two) away from being all natural, which unfortunately isn’t the stunning pure silvery-white I’d been hoping for… apparently I am “dove grey” with white at the temples. I like the white bits but hope it doesn’t make me look like Grandpa Munster! But it actually feels good not to be bothered about hair colour anymore. Just one less thing, you know?

It looks as if I’ll be white-white… if I ever get there in what is a glacial process of white filtering in at the temples and forelock, Jason Blood-style. And maddeningly, in the meantime some of my hair is growing in darker and drabber than it’s ever been in my life. WTF?

That’s what I thought! When I lift up my hair on the sides and at the back it’s all white. But, like you, the stuff growing in refuses to turn white and is kind of a meh brown on top. My hairline (other than at the sides) is still meh brown, go figure. The only bonus is that with this lighter overall hair colour my BALDNESS doesn’t show through quite so much. Honestly, it feels like revenge for all the years I hated my stupid hair, now it’s finally getting back at me. I want to say all is forgiven, please come back even if you’re thin, frizzy and hideous… but I fear it’s too late.
