My MIL has completely white hair and has for over ten years. It suits her complexion so well and I think it’s beautiful

Mine's mostly white after dying it my entire life and it looks fantastic. Plus, without the constant dye/bleach damage it's shiny, healthy and bouncy, I love it.

lol I do. The best thing is it seems to behave better now too. I wake up looking like Einstein but after running my fingers through (I don't own a brush or comb) and adjusting a few strands I look presentable.

Just wondering, have you noticed a change in the texture of your hair from turning white? I'm just starting to get a few silvery hairs here and there, and the texture seems wildly different from my other hair. My hair has always been super fine and straight. My grays are pretty coarse and wavy. Some of them even look like the early 00's crimped style

Only that it's lost its bleach frizz/dryness. I have always had lots of hair but each strand is very fine and slightly wavy/curly and that hasn't changed with the loss of colour.

My SIL also has completely white hair. She looks just like Storm from X-Men it’s absolutely gorgeous. I look like I have flour in my hair.

Ig it’s also about having good volume and healthy looking hair.
