I have also been going grey during Covid. I have gotten some blonde highlights and it has helped bridge between my brown color, my grey all around my face, and my darker salt and pepper in the back. Thanks for all your advice!

I’m fair with cool toned skin and emerald green eyes. . As a child my hair was white blonde but as I grew up it turned a mixture of chestnut brown with dirty blonde natural highlights. I’m wanting to go grey so I can let it grow into its natural grey color. What’s the best grey tone that would suit me?

My hair was dark blonde. I use to use neutral blonde. I let my hair color come in. It’s two tone, dark greyand white. I get compliments but want the grey lighter. I bought purple shampoo to highlight it. I used it once. I don’t feel it helped. I don’t want to dye my hair again. What can I do? I am 71 years young . I guess, I need more lighter tones where the dark grey is. I have short hair. Any suggestions?

I have fair skin, freckles, dark brown eyes and white hair. Should I grow my white hair out? Would it look good on me?

Thank you Yvonne, your site helped me be more comfortable with my decision going grey. I am cool tone and have always loved jeweled tones. I loved your suggestions.

In reply to Wendy Wallace.

By looking at the color of your skin. If it has a yellow undertone you’re warm, if it has a pink undertone you’re cool. Other indicators are the eyes and your veins (If your veins appear more blue, you’re cool-toned but if you see more green, you’re warm-toned.). You can also just add colors close to your face.

In reply to Margie. this is me too. I have always loved black, blues, purples but my hair is now gray with still some blond in it and I look washed out all the time. It is a real struggle. I was hoping you would have received a little more information on what to use to brighten up our faces.

In reply to Annie Stewart. I have stark white hair and love it! I very seldom wear gray or dull colors like beautiful blues and various greens. Black is very striking.

In reply to Margie.

Hi Margie,
Sorry for the delay in responding. Instead of a blue based pink lipstick, have you tried something like a raspberry, berry or even a rose red? You could even go to a softer taupier pink.
Hope that helps.
