EMBRACE THE GREY!

I love coloring my hair dark auburn, dark burgundy, and plum brown.  I wasn't ready to embrace the grey hair yet.  I  became
a great in home colorist after I learned what brands of hair dye worked best for hair type. 

 My fun with coloring my hair came to a halt 2 years ago. I had a severe reaction
to the hair dye I had been using for 10 years!  I was devastated.  I wore wigs in the winter anyway to give my hair a break from coloring and styling. I didn't want to see my grey hair during the summer!

 I prayed, exhaled, and calmed down. 
After all, was I a vain woman? I looked
on online and watched videos for alternatives. I discovered that the current
trend was young women wearing various shades of grey hair. This was so ironic.  This old lady didn't  want  grey hair but
young ladies were having a ball wearing grey hair! This trend turned out to be
a "GOOD THING." Finding a great
selection of grey hair styles, grey wigs,
grey faux hair used to be difficult. 
There are several choices now online
and beauty supply stores.

 After weeks of research, I decided to  boldly wear my grey hair in various 
updo styles!  My hair was still short
from last summer's haircut. Some
online videos showed me that an updo was still possible with short hair.  This 
style required a lot of hair gel and faux grey hair! My hair is soft and thin so
I gel it after is dries for more texture and  volume.  J.A.S.O.N.  hair products offer
a hair gel  for all types of hair, is unisex, and contains herbs that make my hair grow.

You can purchase grey braids or braid your own using packs of  braiding hair. 
I discovered that braided hair should be kept in a grey hair net or silk scarf to deter it getting frizzy.  
Here are some hairsyles I have tried:

HOW I AM AGING GRACEFULLY, WELLNESS

  I didn't want to acknowledge that I was  getting older.I got offended when store clerks said, Yes ma'am".  I realized that age 40 was old to most young people. I couldn't deny aging any longer when I  fell one morning sprinting out of bed.My friends and I had a good laugh because  all of them had fallen out of bed too.We shared our techniques for arising safely out of bed each morning.  We check to see which joints are working.I admitted that I  hold onto the wall until my joints loosen up. Most days my joints tell me  when a storm is coming.  I have had a few allergic reactions  pop up to foods  I have been eating since childhood.This is very annoying.I would be devastated if I ever developed any allergy to coffee or chocolate. I have to make my coffee  weaker now and I can live with that!! I can eat too much dark chocolate since it gives me indigestion.   Hey,  I know what to do. I'm resourceful, I only eat a little at a tim

SPANISH LLADRO ANGEL FIGURINES SENIOR MOMENT COLLECTIBLES (SMC) I began collecting angels after  I saw an article in the guide post  magazine. The lady had a picture of her angel collection on the first page. I thought this was a great  hobby. Now I have three curio cabinets full of angels. My husband realized I was  a serious about my angel collection. He began buying me beautiful angels for my Christmas present.  He even  bought me the curio cabinets to put them in.  I even had friends who collected  frogs, elephants, penguins, and sock monkeys. We helped each  other hunt for collectibles.Some of them bought me angels when  they traveled overseas. I have   beautiful angels from Africa and Hawaii because of my traveling friends.

THE JEAN SCENE 4 WOMEN!

I love wearing jeans. They are  more enjoyable when they fit well. They flatter your figure. I am very envious when I see  a classy senior lady looking good in her denim outfit. I  have seen that crisp white  shirt, flattering jeans and a nice pair of boots. I was inspired to put more effort  into my attire after I saw a jeans show on Rachel Ray show.  Her guest explained that you have to find the correct jeans for your  body type.  I know they make  skinny jeans to fit every woman, but I must pass on this style. I have seen some denim styles that  I have tried to copy. They are classy and flattering. Here are some of the styles:
