My Dilemna~

Sooooooo, i have long hair that has always been straight as straight can be, until now.  It seems i have a few gray patches sprouting on one side.  I dont mind the gray as i earned every one of them but for some frickin reason they are coming in and they are wavy.  Now i have one side of my hair that have waves in them.  If it was my whole head it would be okay but it isnt.  When i get the rest of my gray hairs will they be wavy too??  I am not liking having to straighten one side.  I like the wash and wear hair.......

My gray hair is different from my regular hair. It's like it came from a different person. My regular hair is very fine texture. My gray hair is thick and yes a little wavy as well. My best guess would be yes, your new gray hair will be wavy as well. My eyebrows now are sprouting gray hair. I keep plucking them. Soon, I will have bald eyes.

Now that I've answered your question, I'm off to solve world hunger. BTW, what time does the Raider game start tomorrow?

Yours truly, MB

I have the same issue starting to happen. My hair is so long it's almost down to my butt and it's already super thick to begin with. I have a few grey hairs coming in, especially the little baby hair around my scalp and it is curly as can be and kind of coarse. With all of this hair, I can't afford for it to be any wilder! My mother is a hair stylist and she always told me that when your hair greys, it changes the chemical makeup of the hair and often makes it really coarse, dry, and curly. I don't now if she knows what she's talking about, but I assume she probably does.    

Go Raiders! Hope you win your fantasy game!!  Go Chiefs!! (You nkow, in the real game! ) ;)    Please don't get the voodoo dolls out!!!!

You are delusional my dear. The Raiders don't play and yes, all of your gray hair will be wiry. Fortunately for you, you can dye streaks of black into it and show the colors of your favorite team. See, I'm good for some things.

Ha!! My Grey hair is bad on both sides of my face above the ears. I do get it dyed sometimes..BUT that Grey just pushes through the dye. My Hair does seem thicker now. It was always a bit wavy and still is a little bit. Maybe as we age our scalp gets tighter and comes out a bit wavy or curly. Like when you take a knife to a ribbon and pull it down to make it curl up..Hahaha

Seems EVERYTHING changes with this "aging" process for me!

I wore very long hair (and it was super duper straight) almost ALL my life...anywhere from my waist to my boobs. (course that is relative, too, as THOSE aren't as high "up" as they used to be either..ROFL)  I'm glad I wore it long all thru my "stuck in the bed" be sick on opiate days....thank God for greasy pony tails, eh?
But then....after I got clean....I decided to just "go for it" and change my hair too!  Now that it is layered all over and only about shoulder length....I'm really beginning to gray around my face (still able to hide it though w/o color).  The other REALLY trippy thing that has happened is that it is getting darker and darker as I age.  My hair gal says we always go darker BEFORE we go gray.  (oh no!!!...I know what's ahead).
I had straight...and I mean REALLY straight hair until I cut some weight off and layered it.....if I use some product of some kind....it's SUPER curly now????  What???  Me???  with curly hair???  I'm lovin it though...pretty much wash and go....not so much the gray eyebrow or chin and mustache hairs~  LOL
I wanna see a Raiders color weave picture on your profile soon, Sara, K?

OMG you girls..I always wonder if I end up in a NH if they would pluck a few of my face hairs..LMAO..OR even put my partial in my mouth. BOOBS Ha! That is why I have to wear my High Heels backwards..Told hold me up from the weight of my Boobs..I used to stash drugs under my Boobs..Sagging low and can hold a can of beans under them now.hahaha
AND thanks Sarah..I went and put my reading glasses on and seen all kinds of new grey hairs. I think besides age the stress brings it out..AND we all went through some stress when we detoxed too. lol

"Maybe as we age our scalp gets tighter..."  OMG!  That's funny...

So...how bad does it look Sara?  Does it stick out in a stupid way? I'd be inclined to leave it and just use some product to tame the wiry hairs down...And I think those facial hairs are far more disturbing than ANYTHING! And they're practically invisible!   Everyone needs to go OUTSIDE with a mirror, reading glasses, and a pair of tweezers! Unbelievable the things you find!!

My gray's arent as wiry as most, they are rather tame at this point.  If my whole head had this extra body i would be rather happy!!!  I just  pull it all back and wear a ponytail.  When i get my "do" done she french braids it.  I have tried that but i look like i am playing twister!!!  I just dont have time for all this girly crap!!!
