Whilst as my sisters (after she'd cut my hair), my sister showed some photo's she'd found.
My hair now is rather like it was when I was 5, only slightly longer (jaw length) and silver! :-D

Yes, I have a bob, after twenty-years of lesbian haircuts, and I was only thinking how much it was like my hair when I was at primary.

I used to have a bow in it then and was toying with the idea of doing that again. People would think I was Grayson Perry!

You'd have to rouge up your cheeks! :-D

I love Grayson Perry.

Me too, Maggie! Love GP's fashion sense.

I let my light beige blond hair colouring grow out when my hair became thinner and thinner. It's always been fine and thin but started off dark mahogany colour, like a very dark brown conker but lots of red shining through! People would constantly remark on the colour when I was young. Now my son's hair is the same colour but he takes after his father in that his hair is thick and wavy, don't think he will go bald like my brother and uncles on Mum's side. My maternal great aunts used to crochet themselves little skullcaps as their hair thinned so much, I can picture them now, in their 80s.

As I found white hairs I used henna and different dark haircolours to disguise them but the more there were, the more my hair looked blonder so I started using blond colourants. Now I am mostly grey/white with the odd dark hair interspersed but I don''t mind. It's long so I can twist it up off my neck when I want. Every so often I chop some off the length and get o.h. to level it off across the back. Lately I have found lots more growth on the top so my parting isn't so obviously wide but it means I look a bit tufty lol Hopefully I won't have to crochet a skullcap yet lol
