Greys Go Away!

The worst thing happened to be this morning. Bleary eyed as I applied my makeup my eyes drifted northward toward my hair line, when gasp I saw them! My pesky, inhospitable grey's were back...again! An unfortunate symptom of stress (or that's what I chalk it up to) I started sprouting a few grey's in my teens. In my early twenties it only got worse. So bad that someone, who in their dire attempt to hit on me, had the audacity to ask my age. When I responded 23, he started laughing and said "No seriously." Apparently my handful of greys lent the appearance of someone much senior. As I've gotten older, I've become uber diligent in touching up my roots in between professional color service. But this morning there was no time or energy to color my roots so I reached in my beauty arsenal...

And out came my Avon Advanced Techniques Grey Root Touch-Up. Think of it as mascara for your hair, this magic wand covers ever last grey with ease and precision. A mega wand oddly reminiscent of Dior's Show mascara, grabs hair and coats with color. No clumps or bumps, the color is deposited smoothly without any traces. It's invisible! A blind eye or random from the bar will never be able to tell. The most life-saving part is the color does not budge until you shampoo! So it provides continually coverage that does not rub or wipe off (no traces on your pillow!) until you wash. This is the little black dress for hair and at a mere $8 I like to think of it as my hair savior. Available in two shades, black and brunette, this is a must have for all my silver haired ladies.

Usage tip: Make sure to hold hair taut as you run the wand over it and use light brushing strokes to coat greys evenly. This helps ensure a clean application.

The result: Bye, bye greys! I'm guessing I look 10 years younger now!
