THOUGHTS...

Don't get too caught up in what color you think you're gonna be in the beginning because it probably won't be what you end up with in the end I ended up more silver when I started more salt and pepper

Moisture iskey in everything. Drink more water, use moisturizing shampoos, fewer heat toolsand did I say drink more water. Frizz isreal, but thiscan help.

Trust your gut if your stylist tellsyou to do something and you're not sure I got talked into using highlightsand tonerswhen I wanted to just let it grow out No offense to her, she'sa nice person, but I think it took longer doing it her way instead of mine.

If none of your friendsare going gray that'sokay, but I suggest you find silver sisters to follow and reach out to make connections with women who will get you when you have those momentsof self doubt

Rethink using heat toolsdaily, understand that clarifying your hair at least once a month isgoing to be a regular thing to help with yellowing and your silvers will never look like anybody else, which isthe best part! Who wantsto look like anybody else! Love your silvers for what they are and if you don't like them, then color again because you're in charge!
