Harder than going gray has been the thinning of my hair, especially on the top, coupled with a receding hairline. My comfort is having few wrinkles at 72, other than marionette lines bracketing my mouth. It's unfair that men are considered distinguished looking as they age, but aging women are viewed with shudders. So thank you, Nikol, for rallying us to "age fiercely!" ☺️
Same here, the pandemic has forced me to let my hair grow long. I thought, o boy this isn’t going to be good. I also have EXTREMELY curly hair, and I’ve been letting go grey for quite a few years. I can honestly say this is the first time in my 74 years that I am happy with my hair. I just let it dry on it’s own and have the most amazing ringlets. And have received many compliments on it. Started wearing makeup again, feeling much better about myself. Love your videos, thank you so much 😘
Terry Kowalski does your hair look like mine? I want to see!
Your hair sounds just gorgeous….
Loved this video Nikol. And yes, I was also surprised. We as women have to learn to write our own rules and go by no one else's
I think quite the opposite!! I'm almost 18 months into growing out my silver hair, pre pandemic. At age 60, I feel a new excitement I haven't felt in years❣ Keeping it long, air dried and naturally curly ~ Love your channel and the support you provide us dear 🌞
I quit dying my hair ages ago. I also let it grow. I have never got so many compliments.
Hi Nichol! I am so thankful for this video!! I am 66 with long hair that is champagne in color all natural. When I decided to let my hair grow and grow I felt really good about myself. I finally felt like I could do anything. My hair has a lot more waves than I thought it did. Always hated curly hair and always striving for straight hair. Well guess what....not anymore. I wash it about once a week, let it air dry and my husband loves it. He always telling me how beautiful my hair is. I can do so much with it too. As my face changed I realized my longer hair actually looks better for me plus not hassle no fuss! Love it
Well, I am 75 and have long white hair. My hair is my best asset....I love it.....I get so many compliments on it from women as well as men....it will remain long except for health reasons etc. at my age I feel I can do what I want to do if it makes me feel better about life.
Wow Lynda. I'd love to see a pic of it. Could we? Good for you. Best for a beautiful summer.
You encourage me!! I wear my hair in a scrunching every day. I put just basic makeup on. Finally in my “ old” age I don’t give a 🐭a$$ what anybody thinks!! It works for me so I’m very happy with looking however I want vs. what society says- who cares??? 😘

You couldn’t look more chic. I’ve gone from a pixie to longish hair and it’s still growing and I get lots of compliments. You really have fabulous hair
Am in my 7O’s- started going greyish at 30. Now it is silver colored with dark underneath. My beautician told me my color is the most requested shade from her clients, most of the younger ones, especially!
This is so great, I've decided to embrace my gray and I have a long shag style that according to family and friends makes me look younger. Like all of you shared today embrace and do what's going to make you feel like the best you. Thank you Nichol for sharing and encouraging all of us.
You look stunning with your beautiful grey hair. It's original, it's fresh... I love it! turning 43 years old today and I love the few grey's I've gotten. ❤❤❤
This is a PERFECT video for me as I am now growing my hair finally giving it to myself. My hair is its natural color...and yes. I find i don't need to wash it as much. I'm 72 and loving this. I also have a very supportive hair stylist. Thank you so much.
I love, love this video!
I have long gray hair, mainly because it's easy and familiar. I have always had long hair.
It seems that the resistance I get is from women my age. However younger women and men compliment me all the time.
So, I figure it's their problem to work out.
You go Silver Sisters!
Never let anyone shame you into a short, old lady cut. For sure not a man cut.
Love your work Nikol! I’m 65, a serial entrepreneur and never been happier. I follow your makeup tips and tricks and I feel absolutely gorgeous 💎❤️
Your hair is STUNNING love it a bit messy, very French chic and more youthful imo
Nikol-I have only just started watching your videos, you have been a wonderful inspiration to me as I move to gray and still remain a better version of myself. Thank you for all your help!
Actually, my hair is longer now because of the quarantine, and I like it. And here in Spain, where I live, we can have quite high temperatures, so I prefer my hair to be longer, so I can just roll it up and attach a clip. By the way, everybody keeps telling me they love my grey hair, especially women, but, when it comes to stop colouring, they don't dare.
What makes people look old is their attitude, not their hair colour :) Grey is just a colour: people need to get used to this! Enough with all the predjudice and stereotypes. Grey and white hair can be youthful and playful, when it's how one feels :) And it is classy.
I’m so loving having longer hair after a pixie fur head and get a lot of compliments. You really have fabulous hair
Love your Channel Nikol and Your Book. I have been letting my hair go Grey since January. You are a Real Inspiration. Love Cathy From Glasgow, Scotland. UK. XXX
Nikol, you are a very pretty woman with a beautiful head of thick hair. The video you did with your mother was one of my favorites. Your mom is stunning! I really appreciate your messaging - we are all going to age and we should just strive to be our best selves. Thanks for being such a champion for all women.
At 58, I have long hair down about 3 to 4 inches below my bra line. And, I went gray/no more coloring about 3 years ago. I love the freedom of not worrying about my roots. I don't feel my long hair makes me look old either. I think the short hair I see lots of older women look old or more accurately, make me type that as old. I have always found long gray/white/silver hair beautiful.
I had to come back here again and comment on going dye free. I had an experience recently with a woman I met for lunch whom I hadn’t seen in a year and who was just appalled that I had gone dye free and my naturally light blonde is now silver, platinum, and even some dark going through it. She was, well all I can describe it as is “angry” that I was doing this! She is considerably older than I and goes in every 4 weeks to cover her silver. It’s not in ANY way helping her look any younger, but I, of course, kept MY thoughts to myself even after her attack. She did not. She went off. Crinkled face action saying, “Oh I will never do that!!” “You’d look 15 years younger if you went back to blonde!” And the WORST comment, “If (my husband) is saying he likes it, he’s lying to you!!” OK. Wow. Nice lunch. This is after having had NOTHING but wonderful comments since this hair transition happened, by not only husband and adult children, but complete strangers!! I’ve been stopped and asked WHERE I’m getting my color done! And/or just “May I ask if that is your natural color?” I’ve had the entire dentist office saying things like, “If mine would look like that, I’d do it in a heartbeat!” “If I looked like YOU, I’d do it!” Just wonderful compliments, then I’m blasted by this “friend” and former confidante. So then I remembered somewhere that Nikol had talked about this being a “power play” and suddenly I realized THAT is what was happening here. This person could not handle the fact that she looks in the mirror (she is not taking care of herself) and sees what she sees though SHE is dying her silver hair (by the way, my hairdresser (do we still call them that? :)) doesn’t say “gray” - she says it’s not a “hair hue”) and then looks at women who do have the OVUM to do this and who look better than she ever will with her dyed blonde, and she lashes out! So it’s good to have heard this “power play” truth, because it was so helpful (as were 3 of my closest friends who confirmed it without my telling them the power play story) that I can go ahead and believe the great reviews and chock this horrific lunch to HER manifestation of her perception of women who powerfully go dye free!! Stay strong, Ladies! It’s about taking care of yourself!!!! whatever your age! By the way, I am 61 and along with silver multi-colored hair, it is down my back to my bra. :)
Oh hell - I’m 71 and love my gray hair that’s almost shoulder length. At my age, I don’t care what people think of it. Live and let live! I don’t like the fact it’s thinned out, but like you say, we just have to try and keep it healthy.
I re-watched this video. The first time, I was 4 mos. into growing out my gray and now I am two weeks from a year(!) and love my gray LONG hair. I'm one of those women who always felt that the condition of my hair worsened with color-it seemed to get frizzier and required a lot more work to look styled. Now, I have my hair back; so much regrowth around the crown and when I let it air dry, the gray section is sleek. This has been a terrible year so I don't want to downplay that at all but it teach me to be more authentic and not fret about how I look or looking younger. You and these wonder ladies have served as inspirations for me. Thank you so much. Be well. Victoria
I really needed to hear this today. Thank you! ♥️
Love this video!!! Thank you Nikol for featuring these two lovely ladies! So much inspiration from all of you!
Thank you for this extremely interesting view point. I love the attitude that getting older is a beautiful thing and to run with it instead of against it. Bless you for your wisdom in putting this video up. God bless you always. Love from Australia.
Fabulous video! Loved hearing from other gorgeous gray haired women. Thank you!
You are absolutely right! Having long hair when you get older is a personal decision...I love long hair!!!
Thank you, finally a mature conversation about growing out our grays, I have very thick straight hair growing it out again at 61, was at my waist then did the pixie- really miss my long hair- very relatable! You are all so beautiful !!! 💜🌸
I started letting my grey grow out. And recently I decided to chop off 5 inches of dyed hair and I wasn’t sure if to do it but I went for it. And my hair dresser told me grey hair makes everyone look old. I said it’s ok. I am gonna let it grow grey. So I have it short but I am going to let it grow out it was just so damaged from the color. God bless and stay safe.
Cin Ma of course a hair dresser would say that. Hair dresser say colouring is there brea and butter.
A great video and insight on how we need to do the best we can for ourselves. There are no rules; we create our own rules.
I'm growing my hair as well! I will be following these two ladies!
Thank you for your video today. I am sporting my grey hair now and I actually enjoyed my transition. I do wear my hair short only because of personal preference. I think your longer hair is very beautiful on you. I appreciate you Nikol for all your guidance on beauty and at the same time you are entertaining and keep our spirits up during this difficult time.❤
Well Nikol, it's been almost 14 months since I started my graying. Ty for all your videos about graying and makeup. Truly enjoyed each and every one‼‼💕💕
I am 62 years old and have very long gray hair and everyone complements me at all times! But as nikol had said we need to style it regardless if it’s long or short!
I love my hair.
Thank you for this. I'm 63 and have had hair down to my waist up till 2 weeks ago . And I didnt want to cut any more off. I wish I could attach a before and after . This has inspired me to keep it long.
And I am glad your growing yours out too. But you look amazing with the bob.
😘
At 61 my silver hair looks best in a Bob because it’s fine & thin. If your makeup, clothing & style is current you can be beautiful. Since Covid & working from home so rarely wear makeup, letting my hair grow out but will get it cut in October for my stepsons wedding ( need to look my best since I’ll be around all my husbands outlaws). I’m not trying to look 50 but want to look like a great 61 year old with 10 grandchildren!
Energizing takeaways on the feel-goods of finding and embracing our individual styles. And I like the messages about doing what feels good for us so that we don’t feel an underlying need to follow others expectations or historical norms.
As always, so relevant to your audience! Loved it!
after years of trying to chase my hair color of youth, I have decided to let my beautiful salt and pepper hair come through. I truly appreciate your videos and community for the support. I work in a male dominated law firm where if your are not a young, beautiful female, you are often "down graded". My announcement to my female friends that i'm working with my stylist to move toward my natural color has started a movement. Any advice you can give to a warm skin tone salt and pepper is appreciated. I'll keep you updated on the journey! Love from the 50+ gang!
Love this video! It really inspires me to continue in my pro aging journey with optimism and gratitude. Thank you so much.
Perfect timing! I am letting my hair grow too. I love longer hair and, at 64, I want to see the different hair lengths with my face shape. Once you cut it - opportunity lost!
I am 66 and I am growing my hair out. It is turning grey, it is very thick, it is naturally curly, and I want to, like you Margee, see what it looks like, and feel the weight of it. I can always cut it, but I don't want to miss this opportunity. I haven't had long hair since I was a teenager. I have no idea how to style it, but I will have fun experimenting. Harmless distraction.
I really enjoyed this video! I feel, for me, I cannot have long gray hair, but those other two lovely ladies look great! and yes, I'm really surprised with Caroline's answer on how she takes care of her skin! I did notice during this video how beautiful their faces looked. I've been trying to take control of my sagging jowls and I've been doing microcurrent to tone and tighten the facial muscles (gotta keep doing that!). Also, been trying to release fascia on my face to relax tension (days in between microcurrent) and most recently added LED light therapy to help me stay healthy looking. All these help to improve circulation and help with collagen/elastin production. I really love how positive you are and I've already learned a lot from your videos! Still learning :)
Gray hair ROCKS!! Long, short whatever works for the person.
So true, always be true to ourselves. Keep our beauty inward and outward and do what we need to to feel beautiful. In doing that, we can always feel better all around, in and out.
JUST HAD THIS CONVERSATION with my family!! So on point this video... thank you!
Loving your longer hair, I was hoping you would grow it out!💗
I am sooooooooooooo glad to see you talking about growing it out! I'm listening now as I type. I have been thinking since following you (I just recently discoved you) that you SHOULD absolutely grow it out. Especially since your hair is so gorgeously thick. Subscribed. PS. I have a RUclips Channel where I review silver, grey, white wigs. If I had hair like yours and/or the models you featured in this Vid I doubt I would have ever begun the channel, but I will be sharing your video. Women need other women like you to encourage them in growing out their silvers. Silver truly is the new blond. Thanks for your fabulous videos.
I’m going to check out your channel :o) my 90 year old mom could use a wig.
Thank you!! I use to tell my daughters that I will NEVER cut my hair even when I'm in my 80s. I'm now 64 and still have long hair and it's been colored auburn for 30 years. I am starting to let my grey hair take over but like you, always heard that long hair, especially grey will make you look old and drag your face down. I needed to see this. I'm more excited now to know its OK! Thanx again!! 💕
Thanks for the great video! Your hair is always beautiful but I’m excited to see it getting longer
I am new to your channel about a week lol. I'm so happy I watched this video. I'm 75 and had very long hair we'll into my mid thirties then cut it and now I grew out my platinum to my grey hair I love it and letting it grow. It's not quite to my shoulders and it does grow fast. 🙏if I could afford bottom I'd do it and fix my puff under my eyes. But I am resolved to just accepting beauty within and I can control my hair so I'm blessed at the end. Of. The day. I'm glad I can make this journey with the support of all you lovely ladies thank you. 🙏♥️
I love the length your hair is in this video. You always look so good. I love the timing of this. I'm only a few months away from full on gray hair cut grow out wise. I've been thinking when there I would grow it out to just below shoulder length. :)
Years ago when I was much younger I saw this beautiful black woman with long grey hair. I was in a local supermarket. Yes, she was older but I just remember feeling a huge WOW she looks so beautiful and so very unique. Almost two years ago when I decided to grow out my grey I too decided I was ready for my long hair again. So at 56, I will check back in another year and then two and then three until I get the length again. Cheers to the grey days of life.
WE have the same hair style and length and I too am letting it grow. Surprisingly, the length and grey softens my dark brows and eyes beautifully. I LOVE the length on you as well--then again you always look lovely. This pandemic has taught many people that survival is possible without all the added "stuff" in our lives (movies, mall, eating out, hair dressers, etc).
I've just re-watched this video. For me each decade after 40 is all relative. I'm 71 now, when I was 50 the idea of turning 70 wasn't even on my radar; my mother was that 70+ age. If you have your health there should be no fear attached to aging; adding illness to that rising number is the equation where length or hair color suddenly becomes obsolete.
Thank you Nikol you really inspire me. You are a beautiful woman and you look fabulous with your gray hair.
As long as we take care of our hair with good products and regular trims, long, grey hair is so sexy and bohemian.
Your hair looks great at this length. I'm 60 with grey around my hairline and long hair. I love it and feel so good about it. If anyone asks me why I don't dye my greys out, I authentically and joyfully say "I love my silver strands!!!"
65, here, and I have a group of silver strands at my hairline. They're shinier than my brown hair, so it's like jewelry in my hair!
Good for you for "not caring!" I cheer you on.
Three beautiful insightful women, so comfortable in their own skin. Isn't that the true lesson of ageing? To finally be comfortable in our own skin, truly not caring what other people say or feel about how we lived our own life, with out own truths of why we are and have become.
Thank you for this video! Very inspiring. Your hair is so thick and lush. Just love it!
In my mid to late 50's I decided I was tired of trying to maintain and care for my hair color and shorter hair style. Now at 61 my hair is down to my waist and has grey streaks. People will stop me and tell me how beautiful my hair is. I never had that before. Obviously I had done the right thing. I am actually very happy with my hair.
Thank you for this video Nikole! I feel better about myself right now! 👍💞
Everyone should hear your message! "Be yourself" for Pete's sake! I'm a gardener. I am most comfortable with hair long enough to put up in a bun. If you don't like how it looks....don't come over while I'm gardening! Love your lessons on aging!
Long silver hair ROCKS!!! Grow it ladies!!! :)
I am so glad I found this channel. I have never completely dyed my hair but only highlighted. My husband made a comment about how men don’t color their hair. Why do women? That started me thinking that I will just let my gray grow out and we could be gray together. He is 60 and I am 59. The next time I went to the hairdresser I had her highlight with gray to help it along. I tried growing my hair longer but as your guest said your face changes and I just don’t like the way I look with below the shoulder length.
J
Loving all of the great advice and points of view!
I think your hair looks nicer with the texture, length and “unruliness”, it’s got so much life. Some layers or bangs would look lovely on you. I don’t like to use the word younger because it makes it sound like ageing is a bad thing which of course it isn’t. I’ve recently had bangs cut in and it’s made me look more more current, not younger. Not using that word 🤣
If you don't layer its easier to french braid and put in a pony tail.
I have always lived the look of luxurious long gray hair. Now I'm jealous. Half of my hair fell out at 60 and even monoxidil only helps to keep me from being noticeably bald. You go, girls! I'm with you in spirit.
Try rice water on your hair. Google it. My hair is better after 2 weeks. Also take vit B 100 complex.
These ladies are lovely! I just followed them. Thank you! 🙏🏼💕
Love the way you speak about these things, thank you. It helps me.
You look gorgeous with you longer hair!! My grey, curly hair is a bit longer than shoulder length. I have to put in a bit more effort than Caroline and Simone to maintain my grey and my curls. I don't blow dry, embracing my curls. They need lots of moisture and I wash a couple of times a week.
Hi Nikol! I had to click on this video! I had a hunch about how you would tackle this question but I was curious all the same. When I first started going grey over three years ago, my hairdresser said two things to me: "Don't wear your hair in a ponytail," and "Don't grow it long." I have defied both of those suggestions!! It truly is about how you style your hair that makes all the difference. You look amazing, by the way. It would be fun to collaborate someday. I have mentioned your channel numerous times on my own for the positive support and empowerment you provide women. Have an amazing day! 😊-Erica (middle name Nicole) Henry Johnston
Since going gray I've had many styles including mid back length. The one essential hair treatment is argan oil immediately after shampooing. In between washes, I water rinse and use a leave-in spray conditioner (very fine hair so the rinse out type weighs it down). Long hair is great for different styling and using hair accessories, hats and scarves. Colored hair chalk is so much fun with gray hair!
My texture is very similar to your hair, so I will try those products. Simone's hair looks fantastic! I remember when she came to your Brooklyn, NY book-signing event; at that point, she recently was letting it grow out. Seeing it now, it's like, WOW, GORGEOUS. I so appreciate Caroline's honesty about skin and aging. I plan to eventually do fillers/Botox, etc. and there is nothing wrong with that. It's about doing what makes us happy to be our best. I've had a lot of people, both male and female say to me, "Why are you letting yourself go? Why would you want to look older? You have such a young face, why would you want to make yourself look so ugly? You''ll never meet a guy now..." At one point I thought I would be invisible with silver hair, but it's been quite the opposite. More often than not, the comments are very positive.
Yes Julie it’s about an attitude not our hair color!!!!! The hair products are Devine I really have enjoyed using them thanks to Simone’s suggestions.
Thank you for your comments on grey hair.I really like my grey hair.I try to use the right products and I don't ever blow dry my hair.
I am 34 and fully grey - I love it and I think that it makes me look younger actually because it brightened up my face :) I usually also wear a bright lip, so it adds to the youth!
I've seen that happen myself. I had an acquaintance who married a dark haired man, then one day I saw her in a restaurant with a handsome silver-haired man; I thought she'd got divorced and remarried! He was much better looking as a silver fox than he was before. He had always had dark shadows around his eyes, but when he went gray, the shadows disappeared.
never leave us! 💗
Loved this. Thank you!
I am 45 years old and I am so old now that I decide for myself what I want 🤣 I do not care about the opinion of others, my husband has given up, he knows I do what suits me, my hair my life. do what you want❤
I have considered taking my long locks Grey and have been researching channels like yours as a result. I gotta say, for reasons I don’t fully understand, it is bringing up SOOO much for me. Perhaps it’s because as a model in San Francisco in the ‘80’s I came to believe that all success came from beauty and youth (silly, I know). I suppose it set the stage for the crisis I’m now experiencing when just CONSIDERING going natural.
But the first lady is right, our faces change as we age. So many of the grey haired beauties I’ve seen are still under 40, making them still youthful and beautiful. As Caroline said, it’s not the same when your face begins to turn downward. I’ve got jowels for the first time in my life. I’ve also struggled with the effects of Hoshimotos disease of dry skin and weight gain (to name just a few). So the last thing I want to do is add grey hair to a heavier body and wrinkled, dry face 😕
WHAT A CONUNDRUM!
Long hair is beautiful at any age. My hair is short because it is super easy and I have fine hair. Love you. xoxo
I had my hair last cut oct 2019 to a chin length bob. I cut it that short to cut all dyed hair gone. Grew out my grey 2x. So this third time since my hairdresser’s ruining my hair color AGAIN =+ I decided since the salon is closed I’ll let it grow for a while. It is now half way from my shoulders to my waist! Can’t decide what to do. But-Nikol looks fantastic with long hair so I can’t wait to see it grow!😘
To go gray naturally or by color, it's a matter of personal choice. I feel the same way about a person's hairstyle. This being said, I'm a 50-year-old woman (hairstyle long lob) who knew as a kid I would never embrace going gray naturally. A few years back do to more grays appearing on my crown of ginger locks, my colorist and I decided it was time for me to become an icy platinum blonde. I'm so happy I made the change. The change in color really freshened up my look. And yes, I do look younger as a platinum blonde. My colorist and I decided my hair color will remain this shade until I'm comfortable going silver. When I'm ready to color my hair white silver, I'll rock it (long or short) with confidence. In the end, this is what your hair is all about. It's about making you feel like your best self. Do what you love and good vibes will follow. Carry on
This title caught my eye. My experience has been the opposite. I have super short hair and every so often some person who should mind their own business will say something like, “well, women your age have to be careful about going too short because as women age they look more like men and it can make you look masculine.” It’s the ultimate warning...YOU DON’T WANT TO LOOK LOKE A DUDE! The bottom line is it doesn’t matter what we as women do...there’s someone who will feel the need to criticize and control us in our choices so we might as well tell them to get lost and just do what we want.
Loved this, them and you!!
I just love salt and pepper hair, it’s so classy, elegant, interesting and hip….BUT, I feel way older when I’m grey, and I think I look much older too, and so does my son…..I’m sort of a tad jealous woman can so easily not worry about their hairs going grey and just let it all hang out….must feel like such a relief to not have to bother with colouring it, … just to be you and see you growing into the you you’re meant to be and being calm with it….
It’s such an uplifting thought, BUT , I still can’t do it, I can’t give up the dye…i suppose I’m just not ready…I honestly look 20 years older grey….and yet I think grey is so fabulous on everyone…..it’s really gorgeous…
I just found your channel and I am very grateful I did. Yes they are all aging according to the rules but with class. All the best to you. By the way I love the Greek culture. I am 63, never looked it but I am looking it now because I’ve been kind of in a depression for a couple of years. You are helping you very much.
If I had thick, full hair like yours, I would let it go crazy. 😊
No fillers but I got all crowns lately. I able to smile at the age of 59. And I have grey hair. On top of the world right now. Thanks Nikol 😁
I cannot wait to grow my now short grays, long again..
Well, how did it go? It's been five months since you posted, so how do you like it? Just curious 🤔 Mine is on it's 14th month of gray grow-out, and the grow out is about 8 inches with about 5 inches of brown left still. My hair is about as long as my bra strap with long layers. My mom hates it, but my husband likes it!!🤣😂 I am in my 50s, but I have resistant gray hair that would not hold color anymore.....washed out within 2 washes! Good job and good luck on the process of growing 👍 out your hair!!
I found out about the Mason Pearson brushes before Christmas - so I got the same brush as a self gifting for Christmas - I LOVE these brushes omg
Here is my grey story. I’m the older worker in the shop. One of the guys mentioned I was going grey. My retort was “There no more going grey at my age. It’s gone grey, there no going any more”.
Addendum, Growing old is a privilege that too few of us get to do.
Absolutely love your grey/silver hair,,,,beautiful!!
Hi. I wanted to grow my hair out and stop coloring it. I literally chopped it all off and it’s now beyond my shoulders. I love it.
I loved this. Thank You!
Caroline Labouchere is a model with long gray hair and is stunning! You will look stunning at any length, Nikol! Ooops and you mention Caroline!
I loved what these ladies had to say and agree with them both. Caroline made me laugh about the "sad mouth" comment, because that also is the look I try to avoid and like her, i make an effort to wear a sort of half-smile. Im silver (20 years) and have long hair at 65. No rules!
Kelley Ireland - I do it too! I'm glad I'm not alone🍸
Pickled Ginger you’re not alone!!!
