That silver curly hair is AMAZING.
Super cute!
As far as comments about "letting yourself go", I find that it never comes from men. It is always other women. I realize they are speaking from their own insecurities. Their problems with it are theirs. Their problems shouldn't be your problem. It may sound cliché but a woman who fully embraces her authentic self unapologetically is a very powerful force.
It’s usually my own family that says I’m letting myself go and look old.
And how can it even be termed "letting yourself go"? If the hair is maintained in a flattering style, then clearly the person isn't letting themself go.
I had a man say that to me at a trade show.
@@wednesdayschild3627 I hope you stared at him until he wanted to sink into the floor. He's a clown. 🤡
I always hear such things from man 😮
I stopped coloring my hair in my early 40s because when my grey came in it's thick and course. The dye dries it out and causes it to break. I also stopped relaxing my hair when I was in my early 50s and went natural and now my hair is streaked with grey and I love it!
You straiten your hair plus dyed it? Natural looks really great or is Miriam Makeba the only woman brave enough to walk through life without putting so many chemicals i n her hair(RIP)
I'm 40 and I have alot of grey. I have decided to go the same route. No more perm no more coloring. Those chemicals were harmful to my hair and scalp.
I'm 45 no grey as yes. Reason is, ive stop relaxing my hair at 17. And started braiding it. I use to have short relaxed hair, now I have long hair and was shock when I got it straightened. It's very, very long. If ladies knew how much relaxers play with their harmonies they'd stop using it. My white friends and hubby has greys very early. In my country I saw young as 17 years old with grey that is why from 16 up, nearly everyone I knew color their hair.
So? its not coloring your hair if you were born with that color
I said enough to coloring my hair a year and half ago. I really don’t care what anyone says. I love my grays!!
Why is it that women who color their hair are emboldened to ask those naturally gray why we don’t color your hair? It’s not because I’m lazy and not because I can’t afford it; it’s my choice to be authentically me and be comfortable in my own skin. In the words of my illustrious cousin, you do you, Boo!
🎉🎉🎉🎉
I was born with gray hair (my children also) and have always color my hair. But after I was diagnosed with cancer. After I complete my chemo treatment and and my hair started growing back , it was all gray 🤷🏽♀️..it is what it is... I am embracing my gray hair❤️❤️❤️
Hope your doing well and remain in remission 💕
Congratulations on completing chemo! I know you look incredible! ;-) My story is similar except I never colored my hair. My hair grew back after chemo with a LOT of salt and very little pepper. My feeling is, doggone it, I'm alive, and me and my hair are fabulous!
Thank God you’re well now.🙏🏾❤️🙌🏾
This happened to me post chemo as well. Always had gray but I used to color it. Think chemo gave hair new beginning.
I have gotten nothing but compliments for my gray hair and styling 😌
Your hair is beautiful!
It looks amazing
Gray is beautiful...there's a whole movement behind it
I'm going gray and I looooove it. My self esteem has increased and I get so many compliments. Also, the time and money I save is incredible. Gray is beautiful! Let's embrace aging....
I was coloring my hair prior to my cancer diagnosis. Lost all my hair and now it’s growing back very very gray! I sent a picture to a friend so excited to show off my growth and she says it’s cute you just need to dye it! That hurt a little BUT I will not color it ever again!
That hurt when I read that🥺 I lost my hair due to autoimmune issues. I covered it up well but told my husband I was going to look different when he got home from work one day. I did the big chop & he absolutely loved it! I had brush waves basically & my sister's & my girlfriend's all cheered me on. I don't know how long she has been your friend but it's part of your self care to do the thing's that bring you joy & surround yourself with people who love & support you! I'm praying 🙏🏽 for you sis, that you are healed from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet! In Jesus name Amen 🙌🏽
Don’t take it personally. That’s a reflection of her own insecurity with her own ideas of how hair should be. Most of the advice we receive from people are well intentioned but they are a reflection of their own personal preferences. You do you!
@@yayablake8963 I’ve actually been friends with her for years but I’m 50 now and I’m still learning how not to be surprised by others actions.
I love the support you have in your husband and family! Awesome
Thank you so much! ❤️
@@SL-lz9jr This!!! Makes so much sense! You are so on point! Thank you so much for this!❤️
@@alicisaperkins2564 I agree with SL too😊 Continue to do you sweetie. God Bless🙌🏽
Going Grey has brought so many surprises! When I first started to go grey in my 30s, I got a lot of negativity & quit. When I went grey in my 50s the biggest surprise was modeling opportunities💜
Awesome!! Seeing women go grey is powerful, I can’t wait for my time ❤
❤❤❤❤
I get senior discounts and I'm not a senior 😂🤣
😂😂 👍🏻
I stopped coloring my hair in 2022! Embracing the gray and loving it!!!
Me too!!!
me too!
Encouraging
I think gray hair is beautiful❣️I’m glad they embraced it.
Both ladies hair is BEAUTIFUL. GOD don't make mistakes. I started graying in 8th grade. It's definitely hereditary. I use to get a rinse and also relaxed but now I embrace my 4c natural salt & pepper hair and I couldn't feel more Beautiful.
💯❤️ he's always on Time when we receive it...
You are exactly right. God makes no mistakes!
They're both beautiful women and their hair matches their personalities. I wish more people, not just women, would embrace their gray hair, but society still frowns upon it; especially for women in the workforce.
Not acceptable for women, but society embraces a graying man.
I love my grey hair.I was nervous at first but during the pandemic I stop coloring and yes it was a process but I felt I was embracing me. I did get some family members that were not encouraging but I tuned them out. I've been natural for 7yrs. God created.
Good for you. I am so scared! And everytime that I do it, I say that it is the last time. I'm going to embrace it one day. Maybe I can get a little courage. Thanks!
@@ltimore451 It takes time sending prayers of encouragement to you! You'll know when you're ready.
Same here! I Let go of coloring when the pandemic started. Now, I get nothing but compliments on my hair. I even hear whispers from people wondering if my hair is real because it’s a fad to dye your hair grey.
@@lisafred373 Me too! I have people ask me if I colored my hair grey. 😊😂
I stopped dyeing my grays this June before turning 47 and it wasn't a big deal because I didn't talk about it.
I did my research and decided for myself that it was time. I've noticed my colleagues looking at them but they haven't said anything & neither have I. This is what 47 looks like now 🤷🏽♀️👩🏾🦳🙂
I decided to embrace my hair when my honey said how beautiful my gray hair looks. Im 47 and have more gray than my Mom...lol...I recently got my sisterlocks established and I couldn't be happier ❤️
I have sisterlocs as well! I’m sure your hair is beautiful!!
@@blossomann3167 it will be a month on the 8th and I am absolutely enjoying the journey. As many other sisters have said "it's the best decision I've made for my hair". I agree 💯
@@AKingsQueen I absolutely agree !!!!!
I know I’m fighting a losing battle against my grey but like Tamron I’m holding on for the meantime.
😅
Several months had only two or three strands. Stressed out and turned 46 and I have some scattered strands. Hair still looks black from a distance. But I'm debating will I color or not once it comes in stronger. I like the sexy gray hair look, but I also don't like doing my hair so I have many wigs, lol!
I’ve been embracing my greys in the front of my head from my 40s and it’s hereditary in that area of our head. Not dyeing
Love Heren’s hair
👋
That big grey afro is awesome
I love my gray hair. Negative remarks are about the person making them. I love and have extremely short hair.
Love this! I’m 38 and recently decided to embrace my natural gray as well. I’m excited!
My teenage son told me to embrace my gray!!! Hahahaha!!!
My babies did that to me, and I am grateful for that, as I feel they liberated me ❤️ 😍
I love gray hair!! I can't wait! Got some grays...so excited! Yes...I'm a Woman...Hear me roar!!!
Im 33 and my beard is fully committed 😂
Gotta love the silvery grey glory & it's so beautiful 😍 Glad to see others are embracing and not forsaking or despising. Whether the embrace of grey or not, be bold brave & beautiful Queens
I got my 1st gray hair in my early 20's I stop relaxing it in my 50's but I dyed my gray & wore a lot of wigs & weaves. I am not ready to show my gray yet. I admire men & women who do because it's beautiful & distinquished..
I used to follow Carly’s blog. She’s always been down to earth and honest about things. I like that she embraces her gray hair
I have no choice in embracing my grey hair. I used to color my hair until I got an allergic reaction. It’s still taking me a minute to love my hair, but I know I will over time. It’s who I am now.
Whew…I’m not there yet…😂 I’m with you Tamron.
I’m 46 and I put the dye bottle down 13 months ago.. Growing old gracefully..
I love gray hair on other people. But can't seem to embrace it on me. I am 56 years old and colored my hair regularly from my mid 30s because I disliked my grays. A little over 2 years ago while battling weeks long bouts of hot flashes I got my hair braided because I couldn't keep a style with all the head sweating. I really liked the braids until the gray started to aggressively show again. I switched to crochet styles to cover my hair and stopped dying it. But this summer I tired of the heat, the hot flashes and the hot crochet hair on my head. Now during the course of nearly 2 years of not coloring my hair, I grew my hair to just past shoulder length all gray except few inches of colored ends. I decide to do braids again and was almost ready to go with the gray. But my gray hair hating hairdresser talked me into coloring again. I did let some time go between color sessions and braiding and try to embrace the gray, but then a coworker asked when did I plan to color again, and I lost my confidence. I really want to try letting go of the color, maybe even try gray braids or crochet. Not sure what to do. I will have to say that stopping the combination of relaxing and coloring my hair constantly has changed my texture from coarse and dry to soft and silky.
Hello my Grey is white so i use platinum hair pieces bun ponytails and braiding hair ..thats how im able to deal..so Far its good
I have been graying graciously for years and now I'm naturally umbre black and gray.
They both look stunning with their natural silver hair. Im on that journey myself. My hair is pure white and its so much healthier now. The dye kept making my hair break off and look dry and dull. Now its shiny and silver white and Im loving it :) I have always gotten positive comments about my choice even inspired some of my friends to do the same. We all feel free and vibrant and have more money in our check books now lol I really hate the double standards society has for men versus women going gray its ridiculous. People go gray in all ages so it has nothing to do with age or getting old its just another beautiful hair color and by women finally embracing it and it becoming normal maybe we can change the way people feel about silver and gray hair. If not who cares its our life and we gotta live it for ourselves no matter what others think :)
If my hair looked as thick and GORGEOUS as the lady on the left on the front seat, I wouldn't color my hair, either! She looks FANTASTIC!👍👍😍😍
I’m crying watching this. It’s so beautiful and inspiring. I’ve been trippin about the grey hair starting at the front of my part and I just decided I want to stop hiding it. I came online to look for inspiration and found this beautiful video. I’m even more sure of it now. ❤
I'm learning to embrace my silver hair and let it sparkle in all its glory ☺
Good for her for standing up to the pressure to dye her hair on her wedding day. If anything, that should be a day where you MOST show up as your authentic self!
Tamron is beautiful! Great segment. I stopped dying my hair in April 2020. I love the freedom.
Omggggg! That my sister from another mom, friend and coworker partner. Go Heren I am so proud of youuuuuuuuuu!
I love how you looks…..
You are so special and lovely person.
You all looks great, beautiful ladies
Never say never.
My mom rocks her gray hair🤩
It’s so great to see this.
Grey in my family is hereditary, I use to colour but have stopped 40 plus years now, same time I started cutting it right down. Since the pandemic I have grown my hair, so it's shoulder length and grey.
Bothe ladies are beautiful! I have one gray hair in my eyebrows .. so I stopped getting it plucked… I embraced that but my gray hair is not as defined as those ladies!! I love it
I love the grey afro.
Tamron! Thank you for this vid! I’m in the process of embracing my grey. This was rite on time! P.S. I hit subscribe 🤎
When I retired to a new state at 64 yrs old I decided to stop dyeing my hair. My best friend a few yrs older had already stopped and her hair was beautiful. But she warned me that you have to be ready for the way people treat you. I'm African America and have worn my hair natural most of my life( that's a whole other story🙄), with different natural cuts and style. It's more pepper than salt, has always been healthy, and I love the way it looks. I do get a lot of compliments from older women who say they are tired of the perms, but don't have the nerve to go natural. The funny thing is the younger people who compliment my hair but think I'm wearing their styles. Two other things I also notice is that you automatically get treated like you are ancient and the increase in gray hair in your eyebrows, lashes and chin🤣😂
Ditched the hair dyes & relaxers.Loving life🥰
I enjoy rocking my TWA in gray.
Gray hair is absolutely beautiful.
Thank you. My Mom always received lots of compliments on her full head of gray hair. Mom had beautiful hair.
I stopped ✋🏽 coloring my hair after my dad passed Feb 2021. I was just tired 😫 of coloring it and realized it was a very temporary fix. A week after coloring my gray hairs were peeping out again.
I started to love my gray hair a few years ago (before the pandemic started). It was the best thing I’ve ever done regarding my hair. My baby sister and I have matching gray spots. Mine kept growing in one spots, where it’s now very concentrated. Then it started to grow on my hairline. I think mine is so pretty. When it’s curly it looks like I have a lot, but when I straighten my hair I don’t look like I have much. My brother-in-law asked me about why I have gray hair. I was like dude, for one it looks awesome, two you act like women don’t know you have gray just because you’re bald doesn’t mean we don’t’ know. I’m embracing my beautiful curly gray hair, and you should embrace your semi-bald head of gray hair. Be fierce ladies, no matter what you do with the color of your hair.
As a Native American male who is grey at 34, my first greys in my early 20's and dying my hair and finding out my eczema/dermatitis was worsening because the harsh chemicals in the dyes. I started to embrace the greys. My aunt helped me with it when she said her and my mom went grey at an early age as well.
Love my grey hair!! Just found out tam's blond was a wig!! Bravo so glad you kept it real!!😁🐺🐺
I quit coloring my hair in 2010, the year my mother died of a glioblastoma brain tumor. Think about it-all of those harsh chemicals so close to your brain! She dyed her hair for years, and died at age 70. ~Cathy
Grey hair and dye ! I just found this topic of discussion today 26th December 2022 ! There are always questions about dye and no dye ! My son is 15 years and he told me Mom I need to get you black hair shampoo n he did ! The grey hair started really early in my teenage years and I have been dyeing my hair with all kinds of hennas! Now I did permanent natural hair locks but I keep applying black hair shampoo at the roots, which last only 1 1/2 weeks and the grey roots reappear as grow! am 48 years and my face doesn't look 48 but if I left my hair to grow out grey I would look 48 years! Brave, courageous dye ladies there❤️👍❤️💕❤️👍💕👍
Tamron... is... stunning. For some reason I saw Toya Harris from Married to Medicine in her during this clip. Gorgeous women with their grey. I'm inspired.
Gorgeous and Classy unlike fake colored hair!!!!
She's like a Lioness with all her beautiful hair just gorgeous I'm 47 I don't have any serious grey hair just a few strings but I won't be dying my hair it's not that serious to me
My son’s each were born with at least two gray hair.
It has been at least 2 years since I stopped coloring my hair my twin had been doing it longer than I and she does not relax hers. I had been relaxing and coloring for I don't know how long. But my hair needed a break so I chose to lose the coloring. I didn't realize how assuming people are when they don't know, for example, my younger sister's husband passed unexpectedly and I needed to go and help her. The first assumption was from one of the people that we went to see about the services for my sister's husband now she dyes her hair and she gets it braided. So the guy in talking to us asked me was I my sister's mother. It caught me off guard I know I had a strange look on my face and I said no, she's my sister and of course, the situation turned awkward everyone that day we ran into "assumed" that I was her mother... we are 6 years apart. To say the least the constant assumption got on my nerves. But it didn't change my mind to begin coloring again because my hair doesn't need to be colored anymore. It is silver/gray and looks fine and that is that. You sometimes do run into people that in one way or another show ignorance, we all get there eventually.
I had grey hair when I started middle school, I dyed it but when I got married I stopped dyeing it. I Love my GREY HAIR.
Completed a big chop 18 months ago. Chopped off at two feet of hair. I spent too much time coloring my roots every two weeks damaging my long curls. I love my healthy silver curls!!!
Im on that journey myself and loving it. THose women are beautiful :)
Erin's hair is beautiful. I know two people who started greying in their teens. Their grey hair is a beautiful true steel color just like Erin's.
I tried to grow my hair out in 2020. But I wasn’t ready. I was in such a bad mood about it. Soo started coloring my hair with a glaze only. No permanent dye. Not my grays are coming out a little more naturally and this time I’m happier about it. It’s a journey, for me anyway. But Ive noticed - no one talks about it. Only one person has said anything to me about it. 🤷🏻♀️
I developed a gray patch on my left temple. It came when I started watching my husband pass away. It was almost 20 months of nothing but stress.
I’m so sorry 😢 (((hugs)))
I started in my mid 20’s and in my 30’s and it I started wearing it in the same Stacy London streak. Now the gray is starting to full out. I always embrace it, because I remember my grandmother said,” Not everyone gets to live to see gray.” I allow to come in, but now I wish it was fully gray. I’m want it to get stylish like these two beautiful ladies. Not sure what to do with it, but I don’t want to perm or dye my hair.
Just a question - What would happen if dye of all kinds was confirmed to be 100% cancerous?
there are herbal-based preparations in addition to henna that are increasing in popularity because of such concerns- they do tend to be more expensive but if it helps you avoid medical risks then it could be worth considering if dying your hair is still a priority for folks...I'm letting mine grow in gray
Just a question what would happen if talking bs of all kinds was confirmed to be 100 cancerous.
I would STOP, But I've worn Gray hair in the past I'm sure I'm completely white at the top.
At 23 I had a large white patch on the front left side and my hair was jet black. Everytime I dyed it, it would come right back 1-2 days later. It just wouldn't dye. My dad said it was wisdom. Never dyed it again and now my whole head is silver and been this way since 40, I'm 64 and people think I'm in my 40's.
I bet it's absolutely beautiful 😍❤️. I'm 34 and embracing my gray. Keeping my hair healthy is my priority now, not conforming to the beauty standards of the world. Many blessings to you 😊
I stepped coloring my hair a back in 2017 and I love it!
I absolutely love grey hair. I think it’s gorgeous. Sadly, I don’t think I’ll get a beautiful head of grey. It’s crazy how some people never get the things they really love.
After going bald in my late 30's, I started going gray maybe because it's@ it's most natural state. At first, I did continue to dye (I know) but after some time I stop caring.
I grew tired of the coloring process just for it to show up the very next day. So I decided to embrace my natural grey. It's salt and pepper but I am excited about being all grey.
I have never had a desire to color my hair 🤷🏾♀️. I'm 59 & most of my grey is around my edges.
You ladies have beautiful hair! ❤
I’m considering letting my gray come in. Haven’t done it because I love changing my color a lot. But I’m also tired of the upkeep. I already have about 2 inches of salt and pepper hair, so imma see if I can grow it out a bit more so I could get a good cut and grow it out that way.
You can be as Jazzy as you want to be
I love this!! I love my greys sooooo much!!!
Beautiful beautiful beautiful.
I love coloring my hai. I started getting gray hair in High School. My Mom, had salt and pepper hair. After she went through Chemo her hair came back white like snow. My feelings about color is that God created color just for me and colorist for me. My favorite color was Honey Blonde . I've had my hair colored in many shades at different times in my life . I am not ready to embrace gray hair. Maybe when I am 120😂😊 Personally for me gray makes me look old.
Heren gray hair is so beautiful!!!! Gray hair is beautiful!!! if you know how to take care of it.
After Covid hit and we started working from home, I asked myself, why keep dying my hair? Decided to keep the gray after going to an on-site team meeting two years later. Had been dying since about late teens/early twenties.
I’m similar to Carly I have a streak on the same side of my head (I’m 30) and had 3 silver strands at 17 in the same spot.
I stopped coloring my hair about 3 yrs ago i just got tired of it. I would dye my roots by weeks end i would see new growth, i dont perm completely natural its a relief , dont care what anybody thinks im free
I’m a woman of a particular age and I have a great spot on the right side of my hair it just makes me look so much older for now I going to use a temporary color or permanent dye.
The women are BEAUTIFUL.
I'm so glad I saw this bought my hair dye weeks ago I'm done .
I wish my hair would gray like that! Mine only does it around the edges..I hate that!
That's why I color mine.
Do you Tamron Hall. I am loving ❤ my grey hair and I will not be dying it anymore.
I’m 52 have always bleached nd color my hair its been 1 year nd 1 months since I haven’t bleached or color my hair . My gray coming in but I want it to be more salt than pepper. Right now I have in gray braids nd am loving it even get compliments
I love where I live because so many women have embraced their grey hair. It doesn't make any of us look older - that's just what we've been taught. My husband says I look so much better with grey hair and look younger because the dye was harsher on me and my colouring. It was a tough journey to get fully grey and it was worth it. The thing about growing it out is that you don't know what it will look like (which is why someone saying, I'd keep my grey if it looked like that, is a bit crazy, you won't know until you try).
Glorious, beautiful manes!!!
I love your shows they are positive and full of women empowerment
When I see platinum white hair it's like seeing a Angel in person, I like salt and pepper some but when my hair went snow white, I was 😱 not ready, I have from root to 6in now of grey white and 4 of faded rose gold -leftover from pandemic boredom coloring....I'm not going to dye again (I'm a artist so creative expression is part of my life) or least have no plans but a big birthday is coming....new me, new hair style and color may have to be done. P.s. I've read many articles and health books and lack of Zinc and stress will cause you to grey and that must be true because stressful times my hair got more white 🤍
The doctor encouraging us to embrace our natural beauty, is good.
But yes I continue to dye my hair.
But she went on about
Eye lashes extensions
Nails ,
And Botox
Fillers ect.
Well I don't do any of them and never have and never will.
So that's just me.
I'm 62 years old I miss Johnny I love my gray hair and gray respond when you keep his styled moisturize eyebrows Arch the Right Touch of makeup and the right outfit
Tamron would look great with grey. She would not look old at all. I picture her looking somewhat like Marvel Comics' Storm.
