- Hello fabulicious sisters! The comment I received most when I told my family and friends that I was no longer going to dye my hair, was that I was going to look old. Since I couldn't care less to look old as I decided to accept myself whichever which way I was going to be henceforth, I took no offence to such comment. However, on my journey to grow out my grey hair, many women comment to me that they fear to look old. In this video I expose the reasoning that if you feel confident of yourself you will never look old.
Styling and allure rather than fashion is what this channel is about. It's about concept rather than precise store purchase.
But mostly it's about acknowledgement and acceptance of one-self, being an independent woman unrestraint from anyone's opinion and ultimately assurance, esteem and self-love. How does this sound to you?
If you are looking for this kind of support well you just subscribed to the right channel.
Welcome xoxo

#grayhairtransition #selfconfidence #fearoflookingolder
I'm 30 in a couple months, and I've been greying since I was 10 years old because my Psoriasis hauls the pigment out of my hair. A couple years ago I decided to let my grey grow out. Not just because I wanted my hair to heal, but because I had moved out and it was getting expensive to even box dye. Plus... girls my age are spending hundreds to get their hair grey, and I was curious how mine would look natural.
Honestly, I get more compliments on my hair now than ever before. Everyone thinks I dye it. It's loads of fun, and no one thinks I look older. It also doesn't affect my dating life at all. I've been my natural brown, blue, black, teal, red, and purple. It doesn't matter. They either like you or they don't. Rock the grey and love it!
Hola Elisa, yo tengo 43 años y hace un año ya no me pinto el cabello y me ha encantado no tener que volver a usar tinte. He recibido muchas opiniones diferentes, pero lo más maravilloso ha sido aceptarme así, porque esa seguridad hace que se me vean lindas las canas. De hecho ha sido una grandiosa liberación dejar el tinte y sobre todo dejar atrás paradigmas. Saludos.
I agree 100 percent! I get more compliments now than I ever did when I colored. Even if people have negative things to say in regards to looking my age, I don’t care. This is my hair. I HAVE lived. I am thriving. I like seeing myself in this way. Love to you, as always. ❤️
I will be 51 in July. I am so inspired by your videos to go natural. For 14 years I have not seen my natural hair color. I was so concerned with covering the gray that I didn’t take the time to really ask the question why am I doing this, other than not to look “ old”. What a sad state our mainstream society lives in, when both men and women accept the label of looking/ being old at such young ages,30+ years old. I believe, with people such as you, changing our minds one person at time, this stigma will be let go.
Here I go, embracing my natural color and loving myself more than ever🦋🌸💜Thank you so much for inspiring!
The answer is yes. Every person looks older with grey hair, both men and women. But if you feel good about yourself and don't care about people's opinions it's great! I will dye my hair when it turns gray, no matter what and till the day I die because I really don't like the way it looks))
Elissa, So true . . . Your greu hair has made you look sexier, younger. You look amazing!
great video as always! i am over one year completely gray and my hair has never been healthier!you are an inspiration to all women out there!
I'll be brutally honest. Your gray hair looks FREAKIN AWESOME.
I agree, I think my gray/silver compliments my skin tone much better than dye. I love it and I'm so happy to see my natural color again, it finally matches my brows. My hairdresser is even considering letting her natural white come out. I only wish I could wear my hair long so I could see more of the gray, but I'll have to accept I can only wear short because I have petite facial features and length overpowers my face. You look fabulous and you have a great personality.
A woman came to my office who let her grey come in. The way it came in looked like highlights and almost like she had it done that way. It looked beautiful. Thats how mine grows in..like its highlights so I am considering doing it. (Her hair was as dark as mine). I feel it makes you look younger because if you look young for your age, the grey hair kinda does what we call a junxtaposition. Hard to explain. You look fabulous!
Yes, the skin looks better on most people without the dyed hair. Less sallow!
Yes, my skin tone is less sallow. I look so much better grey.
My story is similar. Since Feb 2015 (last dye job), I got 1/4 of grey week after dye job. Left it alone, since July of 2015, hubby told me my hair will be beautiful totally natural (no relaxer or dye). Salt and more pepper, but salty strands reach to length of my hair. Does look like highlights.
i've decide my beautiful grey hair (finally! after 30 years of dying) does make me look older...but it also makes me look PRETTIER! younger doesn't always equal prettier :)
Yes it makes you look natural. I now look at died hair and it’s so obviously no natural. Weird how u see things. I love mine, it has highlighting effect and I look more like my teenage self now before I started highlighting. So strange and such a wonderful feeling
The haircut made lots of difference plus the loose curls are what makes it look updated 🤗
Needed an inspirational boost. Transitioning for the last 2 months while transitioning from married to single. Looking forward to next year for both!!! Hope I look as gorgeous and feel as happy as you do.
Ive been transitioning for 1 year and 2 weeks. My hair grows so slowly. It's only grown about four inches in that time. It's going to take at least three more years to be complete. It's a painful process, but... I am committed. good for you! it's looks great! Love your vids!
This is the most positive, inspiring video I have seen yet on transitioning to grey. I'm not sure if I'm ready yet but watching videos like yours helps with my process. My mom died last year at age 81 and she colored her hair her whole life! I have been wondering what I will do...I see both women with colored hair and grey hair who are older than me and I like both. I have natural henna applied at a salon to color my hair and it is a mixture of shades to imitate my original hair color. What is nice is that it's transparent like watercolor and the grey shows through as lighter anyway so I am thinking if I transition might look like your balayage. Thank you so much for this video. You look gorgeous and you are a delight!
You are such an inspiration for me! I am currently growing out my hair. I chose to cut it very short in order to transition. The dyed ends are gone and I am completely silver-but-still having to be patient while growing out my rather awkward staged pixie-ugh!
But I know eventually I’ll get there 😆 I do think I need to try and up my style game...i think that would help me to feel better. You are one stylish lady and I appreciate you sharing your journey with us and for all your encouraging videos! Thank you ❤️
This haircut on you is the thing that suits you and im saving this video to my gray hair transition on here :)
Im using a temporary root powder in brown which when i put my hair in a bun really disguises the gray.
Ill be a year in in November but I prob have another year to go! Love your look!!
I could not imagine you quiet 😷 That's like if my Husband told me to be quiet. He knows it's just not going to happen 😂 He has learned the fine art of tuning out my constant talking but loves me just as I am. I'm now 6 months into my grey hair and love it at 43. He actually said the other day. Your still the same girl I met all those years ago. It was the sweetest thing he has said in years. Anyway I think you are fab Elisa and by far my favourite on RUclips. You look so vibrant and gorgeous x
I am doing this now. It is difficult. However, I have noticed that if women look healthy meaning a healthy glow to the skin, nice teeth, eat right, if they maintain a nice body weight they don't look old. That said it can still be a challenge but it is also wonderful to no longer mess around with dyes and bleach or that horrible grey line that comes in so fast after dying the hair.
You are sooo incredibly beautiful lady ❤ you are looking just fantastic. So bright and inspiring ✨. I just started my transition to my natural gray after some years of dying my hair. And now I have much more motivation and inspiration with such a great beautiful silver example 🙏
I started letting mine grow out Jan 16, 2018. I wanted to do it a year ago after a craniotomy but everyone talked me out of it. I’m having so much fun watching my natural hair grow out. It’s so nice not to have to go to the salon every 3-4 weeks to touch up white roots. You look absolutely beautiful. I’m happy to have found your channel. You’re an inspiration. ThAnk you for sharing your story.
thank you so much Dawn. I hope you are well now :)
WOW Elisa.... You are such an AMAZING RADIANT LIGHT!! Thank for the gift of your unbridled enthusiasm!! ... Beautiful, Buoyant, and Free..... YES!!! In your presence, that's exactly how I feel!! Thank you and Blessings to you, Dear Sister!!
Awwww Susan. You are the sweetest :) Thank you
What a wonderful, supportive, empowering, and honest video Elisa 😄 The thing I noticed most when you did your flashbacks is how healthy and strong your hair looks now compared to then. Love you and your message xo
I am really glad I found your channel. I must have found it around the time I was going to transition because I was going through You Tube channels to bolster my confidence to do it. I remember showing my hairstylist your video at one point.
9 months later, I haven't had anyone say anything critical about my hair. In fact about 2 weeks ago one of the guys in my meetup group who is 36 told me that I looked younger than my age and he thought most likely I had been hit on by some of the younger men in the group. He is one of my regulars who sometimes doesn't have a filter but it worked in my favor this time. I am not really around men my age(mid 50s) to know if they have a different opinion. I am not even sure if most men notice changes right away.
It will be hard at first unless you are one of those people who are completely fearless. On several occasions I wished I could be one of those women who completely shaved their heads so I wouldn't have any transition but I knew I wouldn't be happy with that, I could barely tolerate a bob. Now most of the time I forget about my hair unless I catch a glimpse of in a public restroom mirror. That is really when I see the grey and it surprises me. On my confident days I take it in stride. On my low days I think wow how old I look. On those days i just have to realize my brain is playing tricks on me.
If think if we perceive ourselves as old then that is what we will reflect to others. And frankly at 57 i am physically old. But I have noticed in other older women, that if a person has a sparkle I forget she has wrinkles on their face and see the young person inside. I think it is about not trying to cover up how old I am but to own it and make it work for me. That is something I work on every day because it isn't something that comes easy for me.
Good luck to anyone who is deciding to start transitioning. You might panic along the way and that is ok. You might dislike your hair if you get it cut short. You might get frustrated with your hair growing to slow. But the end of the day it is just hair. There are so many other things of much more importance to cherish and hold dear. And you will find out who your true friends are when you become your real self. Being in my 50s has been the time to weed out the people and things that do not serve me. It is about being the true person we were meant to be.
Brava! Such a well worded and thoughtful comment. I hope many can read this and find support and encouragement. Thank you so much :)
I can totally relate to your well put words. Weeded out a lot of people too, thinking about new projects work wise and so on. It's just: I just cannot get used to my new look (transitioned during the same time you and Elisa did too).Tried new makeup, different clothes, I feel I just look so "tired", every time I look in the mirror. I haven't received any positive responses either, only either estranged "looks" without saying anything (you know when somebody "thinks" his/her part) or "Ok, so this is a big and courageous step!" from closer friends. No, I don't want to depend on critique from the outside, but as I am a freelancer in a quite young surrounding, I definitely am the old one now - I am 50, always looked younger without trying - most of us do anyway nowadays!! And I do experience this "not being there" thing suddenly, that I never understood before, when older women talked about it.
Thought I was done with the "hair-color-thing" finally, but am about to cave in. Ironically I felt more courageous and selfsecure during this awkward transitioning phase!
I hit those points too. It usually hits me when I am about to go to my meetup I organize. Every single time when I start to get ready for the meetup while I am picking out my clothes, putting on a small amount of make up and blow drying/styling my hair which I rarely do it hits me I am old. Not really old but old then I sit there and have a dialogue with myself until I hit the door to go to my car. I just realized all those things require me to look into the mirror which I don't do much.
Being 57 in a group where most of the members are 40 to 20 something makes life interesting but also reminds me of my age and that things aren't so firm any more or I don't have the same energy but even when I was 20 I had a limited amount of energy. I can talk myself into a very deep hole. It isn't the members who are doing it to me I am. One of the men challenged me to sit on his motorcycle for pictures one time because he deemed I didn't have an adventurous side. I had been nagging about going over 100 on the highway so this was his pay back. I did it as well as the other women who were there from 20 something to 50s. Not all comfortable but the other 50 something woman talked me into it.
I think the trick it to think about what qualities do we as women in our 50s have that are unique. I was watching a Japanese drama where an older woman(not as old as us) was being mentored by a man on how to successfully get a man. She was sort of an all business woman and didn't really date. One thing he said after he observed her on a date in his restaurant was don't be submissive or passive in your conversations. Don't go out of your way to act on all his needs like pouring a cup a tea, etc. He said do what older women do well be intelligent, joke playful and challenge his thinking. There is something that comes with age that we forget we have or maybe we never had it but we can embrace it:
We are intelligent people. We have knowledge either from books and/or life experiences.
We've learned what to take seriously and what to let go.
We know that men are more fragile than young women realize. We don't have to coddle them but we know that our words can be sharp and cutting so we must use them wisely.
We are usually more intuitive and we know who to trust and not to trust. That makes us wise counsel.
We know that we don't have to compete with other women all the time whether it be socially or in business. and the good ones we need to hold dear and support no matter what age they are.
When we are around young people we have a different view compared to those who are only around 50 year olds and older. We can pull from what they know about the world and we know they have value even if they are young.
Men listen to older women especially quite a few younger men. They are fascinated by the fact they can interact with a woman in a different way without any pressure and they don't disengage. I've talked to younger men for hours and even given them and out and they don't take it.
We have a sexy that it is different. Sometimes we have to pull down from deep inside to find it but it is there. Hormones, exhaustion. low self esteem from aging gets in the way many times. The sexy has to come from building confidence through knowing we are good enough(that one is hard for me), people liking us is not a fluke, we don't have to care what people think about us, and we have to sort of put on a strut. Kind of fake it until we believe it. I have to remember when I walk into a room that I belong no matter how old or young the people are. That is hard because I follow the Korean music scene like kpop, korean rap and rock and going to concerts at first was a struggle but now there is an older women and a few older men kpop fan posse starting. I don't think we have to act younger than our age but we can do things that might be deemed inappropriate for our ages.
We have to remember while the second half is over we have a new second half starting(stole that from a you tube channel)
all these things I have posted I haven't accomplished yet but I strive for. I have never been a confident person so it doesn't come naturally.
Make sure your hair doesn't appear frizzy and unkempt. That to me ages everyone over 40
I have just had my hair bleached & doing the same way as well, my hair colourist is lovely & she said she will look after me through the whole process, I have had an asymmetrical bob as well . Love it & seeing your vlogs 🇬🇧❤️xx
You are blessed with lovely gray and lovely dark hair in contrast. Also, this cool hair colour is very flattering for your skin tone. I grew out my grey (front and top) but it was not flattering. My natural hair colour is lighter than yours; my hair is very fine so the hairline was invisible making my hairline look bizarrely high; I am very pale and my entire head - face and hair - was the same colour, not a good look. Hair chalk (actually chalk pastels ;0) helped - teal was a favourite. So, after about 18 months I went back to tinting the grey to a blonde, especially around the hairline, and leaving the natural dark hair as it is. The important thing is, as you know, that you feel free to do whatever works for you. You look fantastic!
I agree also that silver/grey hair is beautiful, and you look fabulous! Love your outlook on life....rockin!
Thanks for supporting those who (like me) prefer going/ turning natural! You look gorgeous and I love your matching grey eyeshadow! I haven`t coloured my hair for ca. seven years and I find it fascinating how it has been changing the colour slowly. By the way who wants to be data ble? haha, gros bisoux
PWAAHHHHH :)
You were and are definitely NOT ugly. Great example, inspiration. You look very youthful! Yes honey! Loved ALL the styling you showed us over the past year.
Thank you Wendy. How kind of you :)
I agree!! My silver compliments me! I 💝 my silver crown😎 tfs
So glad I found your channel for women in their 50's, you have great style and are rockin that silver hair, such an inspiration!!
Thank you so much dear :)
I love the grey hair. You look sophisticated.
i love your hair stylist/dresser!! i feel like i do look older with my grey hair, but actually prettier. younger doesnt necessarily mean prettier :)
Hi Elisa, I agree with evrything you say here especially the part about us woman changing ourselves to please others and ending up unhappy at the end of the day. I am finally learning to love myself fully now at age 48.
On a side note, while I was watching this video at my kitchen table, my little 11 year old daughter came up behind me and said "who's that?" " I like her hair!!". LoL Hey , beauty is recognized by all ages!!
Awwww she is the kindest. Well in RL ALLLLLL the young ones are attracted to my grey hair. LOL Goes to show that nature is waaaaay more powerful than any artifice :)
Data-able. 😁 Want you to know I watch your videos when I’m getting ready in the morning to soak in your enthusiasm and confidence and use it the rest of the day. Your videos are making a difference in my life. 💞 I’m 54 and transitioning for 3 months.
As always, a fantastically positive self-love speech!! Love it. So happy to hear that going silver has made you bloom. You can see that on you when watching. You're such a positive force for people everywhere!
Thanks!!! I loved this .... As I am in month 4 of “cold turkey” 😳😫! I feel at least fortunate that I’m really good at styling my hair in every which way, and that I’ve always been very confident woman! That said, I STILL wrestle with much of the uncomfortable issues of transitioning! On the particularly bad hair days my strategy is to not check the mirror so much! 😃👍🏻! Thanks as always Elisa for another great pep talk for those of us STILL “in” the thick of the struggle! 😘
I love your hair, I am going gray as well , and love it at 52! ❤ ❤
big hugs grey hair sister :)
I am 18 and have been growing my natural hair out for two years now. Not gray, but just my natural color. Your videos doesn't just help older people transitioning to grey but also anyone who's going from dyed to natural hair! Thanks! (Maybe this video doesn't help me though, but your other ones 👍😋)
Matilda I am honoured that such a young person like you even watches me!!! Thank you so much :) I am also happy to hear that you are going to stick to your natural colour which at this age just simply glows. Dye is made to give a glow to hair that no longer does due to aging. Of course it doesn’t work. Other less invasive and natural products do, like oils, massages and CERTAINLY a good diet and healthy life attitude. I wish you to always strive for YOUR best all your life; body (healthy eating and exercise habits), mind (education or reading), spirit (healthy and helpful attitude ie love yourself). God bless beautiful :)
I look older...way older. But I was trying to keep my naturally white hair brown and that was a losing battle. I may look older but I feel such relief!
Margaret Frook
You go Margaret!!!
"Not Data-able" is what I noticed. I loved your topic & the way you referenced back to last year as well. Love your personality,style & look. :)
I love your attitude, thanks for being so encouraging. :)
I just cut my long hair off (down to the bra strap) after a 7 week grow-out and I am now completely silver on the sides but still a bit dark on top. The hairdresser said it will be another 8 to 9 weeks to get all the unnatural hair cut-out. Everyone says it has taken 10 years off! You were/are one of my grey-spirations so... thank you Bella!
"Grey-spirations" LOVE THAT :)
I think that is sad that a lot of people think that as a woman gets older she is sexless, walking around in a huge long flower dress, short haired, and not enoying life anymore. Now I am more mature I appreciate life more than I did when I was younger, I enjoy my body more now, I feel like a real woman now.
You look great, and I love that sexy dress on you! Keep it going.
I feel you look younger and even prettier with the gray hair and what I've been noticing when I look at so many pictures of women with gray hair is that when their face still looks young it looks to me like they look prettier and younger with the gray hair than they did with the colored hair. I only wish I'd really noticed this prior to this point in time because I'm basically just starting this now. I truly wish I'd come to regognize this two or three years ago because I would have done it sooner if I had and I'd look Rockin' right about now! (Just like you do!)
Your enthusiasm and positivity are wonderful!
No you do not look old at all!! You do have a glow and happiness comes out of you! I watched some of your old videos where you have brown hair. You are beautiful in them but now there’s an air of confidence in you. You have an aura of sophistication and self assurance. Yeah you are cool!
Aww Thank You so much for the shout out!! Recently an old friend (male) said, “I like your new color.” I responded with a smile, “You mean the absence of color.” Just yesterday I was talking with my ex....you know what? I’m gonna save the story for a video 😍😍😘😘
oh boy!
hair dresser it’s all good :)
Elisa, Thanks for all the wonderful encouragement you give in every video! I'm in the beginning stages of transitioning and you have been such a help! I just hope I look as great as you do when my hair has totally transitioned!
Once again you hit it out of the park! Thank you for your motivation and inspiration!!!
I enjoyed this so much, Elisa. You are beautiful and totally rocking your 50's! I'm 51 and I probably dye my hair every 2 1/2 weeks, and I know grey hair is definitely in my future. Your adorable cut and style really make the difference, I think. Glad I found your channel!
Awwww way cool, dear :) Well from my experience all hair is beautiful as long as one is happy with it. Dyed, natural, curly, wavy, blow dried, air dried. As long as the person takes care of it to assimilate one's essence it's an automatic 10 on 10 in my book :)
Thankyou! You’re beautiful and vivacious. I am completely transitioned now and love myself more than ever❤️
I watched all of your grey transition videos. I am thinking of doing this at 56. Fyi my mom is eighty and still colors so I expect her to not like it. Thank you for your videos. Also,you are beautiful in all videos. And you don't look old I would say early 40 maybe. Rock It
Thank you Mary. You might get resistance or you may not. Regardless you will find out what you are made of :)
Also, looking older is the best thing that happened to me. Never been more free and loving it:)
I'm just starting..last dye 12/25/22..im on my way..thanks for the encouraging words
I'm in the process of going natural... Mine is white/Platinum with some brown still left... I'm also getting highlights til the growing process is done! Watching your videos reassured me I'm doing the right thing for me ❤️
Bonjour Elisa,yes ,you did it Woman! It feel so good to listen to you! Merci! 😎😍💜🥂
❤️
You look young because you are. Love your haircut and the color. I’m 68 and just transitioning.
Thank you Ossie. I agree :) But the camera and lights helps, hehehe
It was so nice to see the transition from one year ago. Yes it does make you look sexier for sure.
I too am 62 and I have been highlighting my hair for the transition but young girls tell me they love my hair. I love my look at first I did feel uncomfortable but I am being me and I love it. I look younger and don’t act younger than my age it’s only a number but not a look, awesome !!!!
Have any of you girls thought of GOING BACK to coloring after transitioning? - Elisa, I really LOVE your new hair color,, you look gorgeous! And I also adore your thick hair, it looks so healthy! I transitioned during the same time as you did, just let it grow out (from dark brown hair). My lightest, almost white "parts" are in the front upper middle now, not so much on the sides or the back (mousy salt and pepper fine hair there : /). And as a part of it falls into the face kinda like long bangs (I wear a short bob, my best option), it makes me look quite washed out. I tried new makeup, different colors in clothes, I cant find something that really helps with this rather boring and tired look now (its not the cut but the color). Feel "homesick" to my old color. Maybe I just have to hang in there longer... Don't want to give up after this hard year now, but am about to. Maybe some other women reading along here are going through the same "thing"?
Hi beautiful. I do hope that others can answer you. If you follow my channel I think by now you know what I will answer and that is BE HAPPY. DYE YOUR HAIR, wear a wig, wear extensions, whatever but do something other than being naturally grey. There is absolutely nothing wrong with dying your hair. I stopped dying because it no longer made me happy. If it still did, believe me, I would still be dying my hair. My channel is about accepting what you have wether it's hair, body, mind set, etc. But if you are not happy then you have the responsibility to make yourself happy and everyone else should respect you for it. Girls, please write down your thoughts on this.
Thanks, Elisa. I guess I am so into the "natural-gray-trip" meanwhile that other options just felt "wrong". Well, they might be fussier, but you're absolutely right: everything is possible! Going to have a chat with a hairdresser/colorist now, just to hear what she thinks of my plans, if my hair will take color well at all anymore and so on. Will sort out the options : )
Muchas gracias Elisa, me has terminado de animar a quitar mi tinte negro y dejar ver mis canas que empezaron a salir desde que tenia 10 años (ahora tengo 44).
I finally, after 5 yrs or so, have transitioned to my natural color...Embracing my Silver the "Authentic me" is a wonderful feeling!
YEEEE :)
Brava! You rock! Glad you have achieved your goal. And let's not forget all the money you can now spend on trips and clothes and good times. Since I stopped dyeing, I have saved at least $3,000 in stylist appointments.
I love the silver! I am thinking of doing this myself & this is a great message of encouragement. She looks fabulous!
You look amazing! I have started my journey of becoming gray 2 months ago and Iam very happy at 51 years young 😘
Your hair cuts are amazing that’s a huge plus ... at 51 I’m doing this ... it’s as if your natural color is the best color for you ( and me !!) I can’t wait !!!!
Yes Elisa! Muchas gracias por tu valor!!! Me inspiras mucho. Tienes razón, las canas son un filtro magnífico para detectar a las malas compañias. Well done! You are great! BESOS
Wepa! Bendiciones, guapa :)
Hi Lisa, as a natural grey, I too feel as if I wouldn't be dateable...I lost all my hair through chemo, and it used to be long dark curly hair. Every 3 weeks I would have to dye it. Since its grown back I have decided to embrace the grey, but I worry about dating.....I worry that my naturally curly hair, which I straighten occasionally, makes me look old.....but you have anwered all my questions....thank you!...great video ❤
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! 😄😆 You are STUNNING Elisa. I just happen to stumble upon your channel and I'm so glad I did. I needed to see and hear this. I am at a turning point of this chapter in my life. I think you are much younger than I am but hey it's never too late to be INSPIRED!!
Awwwww you are too kind. and welcome to the family. :)
I love your hair!!! Can you do a tutorial on this look?
No! I see your hair looks better and I've seen several women that don't look older at all! I can't wait to have my hair like that. 👍👏
I love your sparkling energy!
This morning I cleaned out my bathroom.😓. Threw away the bleach, toners, developers, products for brasiness, etc etc. Going grey. I'm tired of bleaching to blend the grey which only turns orange since my hair is dark, thick and curly. No more. I'll be 49, and no one can tell me grey makes you old. I don't accept. I'm nervous yet excited since I'm all white.
Elisa ! I found your channel today and i love your videos!! And this one is so great and real, we must to be happy to accept our age the years, the grey hair as well!!
I am thinking about to go to my real color hair (grey!) thanks for your videos!!
Brissa Bal Hello Brissa :) Thank you for watching. I am glad that you found a solution that makes you happy! Let me know how it goes :)
I’m so glad I’ve found your channel. Your positive energy and attitude is inspirational!
Thank you so much!
Omg I'm loving your hair and no it definitely makes you look younger and trendy. Rock the look. I'm growing my grey too but it takes so long and it only been four months. I still have a long way to go.
Thank you:) I feel that in order to feel young and trendy I needed to learn to love myself. The transition time is the time I needed to exercise this self love. I never looked at my transition as a long way to go but rather: it takes the time that it will take. :)
Yes sweetie, I think you really won. I love what you did.
Thank you Marta. Would you mind elaborating on what is it that you love I did ? :)
LOL data-able. I'm stuck at home today and I must have watched 10 of your videos. I think your transition looked great at every step and you look so beautiful with your natural salt and pepper hair. You have a fun and funky personality and are a joy to watch. Keep on inspiring others :)
Elisa, you look amazing!! I especially loved the style with bangs on you. I'm embracing my "glitter" (grey hair) while it's changing from black to grey. I do have some silver mixed in, but not much. I have an olive complexion and to me, my grey makes my skin look dull, lifeless. I'm thinking of adding more silver to brighten my skin tone. Thanks so much for this video! xo ♥
Love your grey hair! Love your personality! Love even more that you are Canadian, as we need more Canadian women on You Tube. Rock it girl!
Your hair is great, I too am going on the grey route, you have a fabulous hair style too, I think if you go grey, I think you have to have a great funky or stylish classic hair cut makes all the difference on whether you look old. X
Your hair is beautiful and makes you look younger and glowing!
Don’t misunderstand, you were so, so, so adorable with your rich brown hair and your blonde hair, but.....Oh. My. God. The transitioned hair makes you so much sexier in an inexplicable way.....stronger, more confident, and self -knowing. 💋💋💋
I really like your thought process... one of the best & honest video in RUclips. God bless you dear!! And yes you look very beautiful in grey hair.
I have put a permanent silver colour through my hair ...it looks fabulous 😍
I think u look great, love your thick hair and your cut. Your eyes are georgous too
That hairstyle looks great on you 😍
Thank you!!
Beautiful just beautiful! Loved this video. You've inspired me to let my gray come back.
The misspelled word is datable! And I love your hair, you look stunning.
I am halfway through this video and just subscribed. I love your personality. I have been non-stop grinning since I started watching this. I am letting my grey hair grow out and I will not be bleaching it because my hair is just too fine and fragile. I am excited about the process, but a little nervous that I won't like the end result. It looks as if I will be salt & pepper, which I think is one of the more unattractive shades of grey, but we'll see what happens. Because my hair is currently dyed auburn, the new growth looks particularly bad. I may have to get a wig, because this is going to be a long process. I am thinking of getting a Brazilian Blowout for my frizzy hair once it is all grown out.
Always beautiful, always inspiring! MUAH!❤️
Awwww thank you :)
I love your attitude! I want to follow in your footsteps in a few years. It’s so difficult for me because I’m a hair stylist so I have to represent.
Then you will be the perfect example. Then again, letting go of the dye is NOT a colour thing, yes?
You look beautiful during your transition. I'm super inpatient so I did a big chop (completely bald & I loved it)
Oh la la. That is fierce, wow :) How is that going for you?
Thanks so much for this grey hair video. Great info, ur the best advocate and inspiration for grey hair !
And yet I am not a grey hair advocate, hehehe. l advocate be happy and do you :)
Profound words of wisdom. Most helpful and inspiring.
I absolutely love your hair and the cut is hot💥 I love your energy let me say👍🏽I’m here for it!❤️
Even though RUclips has been my favorite guilty pleasure for years, I've refrained from creating an account because I rarely bite my tongue in RL, so figured I'd have a hard time sitting on my hands in many cases. However...because you look SO luminous here, I just had to go through the maneuvers in order to thumbs up and comment. BTW your hair DOES look artificially achieved because it is so unique and gorgeous (like a mixture of pewter and silver). I know it's not a contest, but my opinion is that your hair is more dazzling than the muse you cited. Your outfit videos aren't for me because your style is more sophisticated (I'm a bohemian/FreePeople type of girl), but I still watch them. :) I'm so glad you've continued hair content videos though. If you covered this in another video, just point me in that direction: Why did you cut your long hair? The two tones look really cool! Was it simply to be 100% natural quicker or were you going for a shorter style anyway?
More dazzling than Annika??? Ok Athena I bequeath you all my fortune, LOL I am floored by your sentiments. Thank you ever so much.
I absolutely LOVE bohemian style. I am a fanatic of Sincerely Jules on IG and also of Freely_born bit.ly/2vTpBlL also on IG and RUclips. Alas bohemian doesn't love me :( Hence my more "classic" outfits. (Although in this video I found myself to look quite gypsy with all this jewelry, lol)
You can find my transition video in the playlist titled : White Hair Odyssey. bit.ly/2sSMhiV
As per hair, I decided to cut off 4 inches of bleached hair to give a boost to my hairdo. bit.ly/2F9K4be I sincerely do not like short hair on me. Now that is growing longer I feel more confident of my looks. However I am not 100% natural yet. I still have 2 inches of bleached hair at the ends that should be chopped off in October. :)
"More dazzling than Annika???" Yep. Don't get me wrong -- she has an overall cool ass vibe and I love how long she sports it. Yours is just shinier, more buoyant, and the color richer. With every inch it grows, you will become even more lethal! :) (For the record, my hair lust is Yazemeenah Rossi.)
Thank you for so graciously responding. I will check out all links now. Take care!
Gracias x tus vídeos y el ánimo que nos das...
I first want to say that your natural gray looks fantastic! Not everyone is that lucky. Being in my mid 40's I'm having a tough time deciding once n for all to grow it out naturally. I started but then chickened out & went straight to dying my roots again. My disadvantage is that I'm Asian american & my natural hair color is black so for me to go blond will not work. Then I've thought of maybe cut it short & try growing it out that way... but I've had long hair for so long that I feel would be traumatizing. Yet I do desire a more natural look & want to stop coloring once & for all... what should I do?
Hello :) I need to know how much white hair do you have? Do you have over 80% white hair? Where does it grow?
very uplifting, thank you! I went gray this year and have been considering going back to coloring to date, maybe I won't now :)
Hi Lisa, there is nothing wrong with dying your hair as long as it makes you happy, dear :) I simply could not take that white line showing up after 4 days having spent $90 and just knowing that in 3 weeks I was going to spend another $90 and to always worry that people were looking at THAT white line. The stress!!!! Today, I have no idea what stress is ... well you know what I mean LOL.. Big hugs beautiful :)
No, you absolutely do not look older than before Elisa. You also look better in my view. Striking and gorgeous.
You are beautiful Elisa, you glow with confidence! Keep up with your bubbly personality and dont change for nobody! If certain peopple dont like the transition, well, too bad
