Date Posted: March 27 2000 at 10:34am Need advice on what to do with my long hair. I am over 50, also over-weight, but working on it. Hair is below my bra band in back, starting to go grey, mostly at the plucking stage. People think I'm ten years younger than I am. Should I get it cut off(I do get it trimmed), have a spiral perm, dye it, or what? Need suggestions. Right now, I just pull back the sides and put in a clip, sometimes put in a bun. Hair is thick. If I leave it up too long, I get a headache from it. Hair grows fast. I had it cut short about 4 years ago, but didn't like having to go for trims all the time, so just let it grow out. Now I'm beginning to think I'm too old for long hair, other women are telling me to get it cut short for ease of care. Would appreciate any comments. Replies:
