I am a Senior Citizen with grey hair. Some of my relatives want me to color my hair and it just bothers them that my hair is grey and I like it that way. I don't plan on coloring my hair just to please my relatives. Do you have any relatives that want to change something about you? How do you respond.

If you don't want to color your hair just ignore them..lol I think hair color is a personal choice. I'm considered a senior but I am very fortunate that my hair is all light brown and no grey. I do put blonde highlights in it because I can handle my hair much better when it's colored. The texture is coarser and since my hair is so fine, I can make it behave much better when colored. Otherwise I walk around with alfalfa hair, remember Alfalfa from "The Little Rascals?" He had quite the unique hairdo.

If you like it then you keep it that's the most important thing what YOU like. Have a great day.

My daughter asked me if I thought I would eventually color my hair or just let it turn naturally. I told her I thought I'd just age as it comes and she said, Oh that's good. I am going gray but not bad yet. I think you should do as you please without worry. Do what makes you happy.

It makes me happy that you are happy with your grey hair. I anticipate that I will share the same feelings when I am that age. You should do what makes you happy. I would ask my family to stop bothering me about it.
