Additionally... You do your hair as long as you want! We only live once! Whether it's Botox, filler, hair color, whatever it is.. it's our bodies as long as we do for us and makes us feel good! Do it. My hair is platinum blonde/fuscia pink lol I love it! If anyone gets offended looking at me I'm like .. awe Don't look at me:) I love it.❤
Thank you Dawn, just keeping colouring, you would miss it so much. My strawberry blonde hair started to go blond when I was about 70 but it took about 10 years to go completely blonde I am still blond at 87 but I miss my red hair so much, but I don’t think I would dye it at this age. I still don’t see any grey. Hugs Bea
Hi Bea! I once read that natural redheads usually just get blonder and blonder until their hair turns white. You are so blessed to not have ever turned completely gray. I understand what you said about missing your red hair. It’s a part of our identity. It’s hard to let it go. Have a wonderful day Bea!! Hugs 🤗
Hi Dawn! I originally found you by searching for coloring strawberry blonde hair. I’m so happy I did because your channel offers so much more! Your hair is beautiful! It was hard being a redhead when I was young too, and my skin would get purple and blotchy when I was cold. I got teased relentlessly in elementary school (“I’d rather be dead than have on my head!) But, like you, red hair is such a part of my identity! I’ve been using the Madison Reed color gloss in Zucca to disguise my greys. I love the color of your son’s hair too! Both my daughters have blonde hair, so my color inspiration is my sweet orange kitty! Thank you for the helpful tutorial! I hope you have a good weekend! ❤
I have a sweet spot for orange cats too!! We’ve had 3 of them!! Kids were so mean! I remember getting into an argument with my best friend when I was 14, and she said “ At least I don’t have red hair!” It was like a dagger in my heart! My self esteem took a real blow from that. I think that motivated what I call “my Madonna” bleach blonde phase. I’m so glad you found me to Andrea! Your lovely comments always bless me!!!💖💛
Dawn, your long hair is so becoming on you. Love the color also. I am 66 so I have a lot of gray and not ready to become a "grey sister". I have been doing my own for 15 years now. I have to do my roots every 4 weeks. I have never run my base color through my entire hair because I throw a few highlights in every other time I root touch, so it always blends. It's so satisfying knowing you can do your own hair and the money you save. My husband had the most beautiful Auburn hair when I first met him 48 years ago. Two of my daughters and 2 granddaughters also. Yes, it is part of a person's identity. You did a great job with your hair, and you probably gave someone courage to do their own.
Hi Kathy! Thank you so much for your lovely comment. My paternal grandma & my dad had auburn hair. Only one (Seth) of my 4 has red hair. It does feel great to be able to take control of our hair. I never enjoyed sitting at the salon, and don’t get me started on the cost 💲 lol! I wonder what I’d look like with silver or white hair? I’m not ready to find out yet. 👩🏻🦳
@@BlingyBea My hair is medium length. To my bra strap to be exact. I have a two way mirror in my bathroom. I section off into fourths. I start with the perimeters first as this is the hardest to cover greys. I then do one section at a time. I don't use an applicator bottle. I put my mixture in a bowl, then brush on just the roots. I feel I have better control to make sure the color does not touch my preciously highlights. Because I have more grey than I did when I first started, I use an NN formula. Let it sit for 45 minutes before washing out. Hope this has helped.
I’m loving your strawberry blonde. It’s the exact color I came to UA-cam to see. I do use Wella colors but eventually went straight Titian Red. Now I want to go backwards and be your color. I would love to go gray 1. When I’m ready and 2. When I have a bit more. Thank you for the video 💗🌸
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. It means a lot to me! I’ll go gray when the time is right too! I’m not quite ready yet. Have a wonderful weekend 💖💛
Hi Dawn, your hair is a beautiful colour. I'm a natural red head too and hated it when I was younger. In my 20s I died it platinum blonde and for the last 10 years I've been getting blonde highlights. I can usually go for 3 months. Thinking of letting my hair grow out as i think it would be strawberry now but it has faded a lot. Although I still enjoy being blonde! Have a great week x
Hi Monica! I think red hair gets blonder & blonder until it turns kind of white, so I think blonde is a great way to blend those whites as they come in. That’s my plan. I appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. I hope you are having a great day!!!☀️🌷
Thanks for this video. I am so impressed by how you can do this and film at the same time. As a natural redhead, I completely agree that having red hair becomes part of your identity. This formula is so perfect and looks natural. Thanks for sharing and your step by step instructions. You are the best!
Going white early runs in my family. I always highlighted mine to hide it. At 40 my hairdresser said I was 95% white so I stopped coloring it. I get lots of complements on my hair but there are days I think I look old because of it. I love the color of your hair.❤
Thank you, Wendy!! When I’m 95% I’ll probably let it go natural too. The gray hair trend is everywhere. I hope it lasts. Healthy hair is beautiful no matter the color🥰
Hi. Beautiful hair color . It came out very natural looking. I get my colored at home by my hairdresser. She comes to the house and does my Mom and me. I have very short thick hair but not good at coloring myself. Have a great week 👍😍
That’s so nice and convenient for you and your mom!!! I never enjoyed sitting at the salon. I’d much rather have it done at home. Thank you so much Amy! I hope your week is going great!!!💖💛
Beautiful hair color Dawn and great tutorial. Would love to see what you use for root touch ups. Loved the pic of your coppery red hair - yes, I had that same color when I was young as well. And yes, being a red head is a part of my identity as well. Thinking of going a little lighter now as well - strawberry blonde it is. 😘😘😘
Beautiful colour and gorgeous hair . It grew so fast . I do my roots once in a while at home and full colour at salon. Such a pain in the butt. Have a blessed week . ❤
@@DawnsLifeover40 omg I’m like that too I’m to hyper . I hate all these things when I go after few months they know it has to be fast . Btw your son is a beautiful boy . Take care my friend
Great video, I have seen Molly's videos too and love them. You have definitely found the shade that works great for you. Your eyes look really good with the red and I am sure down the line will really suit white hair also. My hair is the colour of your son's hair so I have been looking at videos of how to do small changes to the shade because like you found out in your teens sometimes big changes are a bit harsh on redheads.
Hi there!!! Thank you so much for watching & taking the time to comment. I totally agree about the big changes. Have you seen Molly’s hair lately? She went darker and it really suits her!!! I think her skin tone is a bit darker than mine so she can pull it off. Have a wonderful day!!🥰🍁🍂💛
Thank you, Julie!! I see so many women on UA-cam and Instagram rocking their gray hair, but then I see women in real life who don’t really style it and it doesn’t look so great. I’m conflicted.
Dawn, your hair turned out so beautiful. I love the color of your hair! I have to color my hair every 5 weeks now and it drives me crazy. I think it's great that you can go 2 months in-between. I miss those days, but I just have a higher concentration of gray now and I am not ready to go all gray.
Thank you so much. It’s only a matter of time before I’ll be dying more frequently too. I’m not ready yet either. I’m sure a day will come that we’ll say “now’s the time!” Or maybe not… 😝
Love your hair! As a natural redhead I also identified with everything you said. Your hair is beautiful and very healthy looking. I would love to see a root touch up video
Every 2 months, boy I wish that was me, I have to get my roots done every 4 weeks, I have lots of greys especially on my temples and in my part which is way more noticeable. Even though I get them done every 4 week’s after about 3 weeks I’m pulling out my spray can for touchups. I wash my hair every 4th day. I tried doing it myself but I can’t get the back of my head, sad cause salon prices are getting so expensive just like nail salons. You did such a good job, the color is so vibrant on you, beautiful, your son Seth is so handsome.❤❤
I hear ya about the cost going up!!! My manicures have increased, so now I wait an extra week between manicures. I haven’t been to a hair salon in years, but It was already expensive when I used to go. thank you so much for being here with me Bea. Have a wonderful day 💖💛
Girl you have thee most gorgeous thick head of hair! I love how u got up close .. I mean it doesn't get more real than that I luv ya.. ur a doll think u for sharing 🥰💯💕🙏🏻
Hi Dawn 🤗 you make this look easy and it’s beautiful ! I have only tried this during the pandemic & it was quite a messy endeavor. Nice to see your handsome son make an appearance too. 💕
Thank you for these videos, you’re an inspiration, and I love the color. I had copper red curly hair when I was younger, but it’s faded to light strawberry blonde in the back - but white around my face! Which I can’t get used to even tho my daughter says it’s pretty. I miss my red and am so tempted to color it to be a redhead again, but honestly really worried about how the white will take to color!
I totally understand how you feel. I see those pesky whites popping up too. Mine take the color very well. It’s the upkeep that is the challenge, but I’m not ready to let the whites take over just yet. Thank you so much for watching & taking the time to comment!☀️❤️
Hi Dawn, so glad i found your UA-cam channel several years ago! I use your formula and love it! Just want to get your opinion about using a 20 developer on the roots and a 10 developer on my lengths next time so as to lessen any drying out or damage. (my hair is 61 years old) Will using a 10 over the already colored lengths come out the same as the roots and last as long or should i just stick with 20 all over every time? Will it blend well? I only need to color every 2 to 3 mo. as i am only !0%/20% fading and mainly in my part area. Thanks for any advice you can give me. And i would be very interested in seeing you do a root touch up as well. THANKS! Elizabeth
Hi Elizabeth! I’m not a hairdresser but I found an informative article that can help you decide if you’d like to use a vol 10 developer on the length of your hair. hairstylecamp.com/10-volume-developer-vs-20-volume-developer/ I understand what you are saying though, I like to use coconut oil on the ends of my hair to minimize damage and to prevent the fragile ends of my hair from absorbing too much color. I hope this helps!!!🌸
Hi Dawn ...I've always loved your auburn haircolor and its so long now 😮 My hair on the other hand ,is almost a short pixie length and dye free for about a year now.There's greys peppered here and there like yours.I hope one day I can have it fully white or thicker chunks . Oh ,I think your developer at 20 volune still lifts ,according to a few hairstylists videos I've seen here on youtube. You can def use 10 volume and it would be even more less damaging.❤👍Have a great week.
Hi Carolyn! Thank you for the kind words! I’m with you, I want my hair to go all gray and then I’ll consider taking the plunge. Lol! Thank you for the developer info! I’ll try a vol 10 next time!!! The less damage the better 😎
@@DawnsLifeover40 👍My pleasure Dawn and I'm sure you'd be very beautiful with your hair all grey ..esp with your blue eyes🩵😍 Best of luck with the Vol.10 .Less damage the better ,totally agree 🙌🏻
I started getting white hair very young. When I had cancer the second time, it came in in droves. Now all I have is white - my family wants me to just leave it but I’m just not ready so I have to dye mine regularly.
Hi Lori! Accepting our white hair really is something most of us have to be ready for. In our generation it was a symbol of aging, but now even young people in their 20’s go silver. For me, there is that psychological element to it. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. I hope you have a wonderful day ❤️🕊
Hi Kim! Aww 🥰 Thank you!! I do have to brush it when I wake up. When my hair was really short I would wake up with the craziest hair!! It was kind of fun to see how wild it would get.😂
I stopped coloring my hair (Oct 2021) almost two years ago. To me it was worth it. I went cold turkey and I have always been dark brown. I have alot of gray in parts, in the back not as much but still streaked with white. Looking back I realize how much I was focused on maintaining the roots, how destructive hair color was on my scalp and actually how the gray helps me be more confident and myself. There is a demarcation line still but it's way more natural and I have had more compliments since going gray and natural. I think it's a matter of confidence for most women. The in between stages can appear to some as women don't care about themselves but it's quite the opposite. I use to have hair loss alot when I dyed my hair. Madison Reed really caused alot of loss. I was amazed at about 4 months after stopping the color how thick my hair grew back in. I've heard this from alot of women doing the same.
I had the same problem with Madison Reed. I stopped using it years ago after I had significant hair loss after using it as my hair color. It took awhile before I made the connection but I did some research at the time. MR says it is more natural but it use(d) an ingredient called ethanolamine, instead of ammonia, which has been shown to cause more damage than the ammonia and specifically has hair loss attributed to it. I wasn't ready to go gray so I started using henna to color my hair. It is a whole other process and very time consuming but my hair started to grow back in after I stopped the Madison Reed. My friends have gone gray, but I'm just not ready yet.
@@curlgirl4265 That’s so interesting!! I like the look of Matera Marigold, but it’s 4 times the price of just mixing my own color. That’s why I stopped using it. I’m intrigued by henna!
It's so great to be free from coloring your hair huh 🥳 For many years ,probably since I was 13 yrs old ...I have colored my hair either auburn,or a medium shade of brown and even bleached it superblonde. I haven't colored it in maybe a year and I've noticed it's thicker,darker and smoother. I have a few greys "white" that are scattered but no thick pieces unfortunately.I love natural grey hair on women &men,esp when it's taken care of properly.
@@curlgirl4265 Yes, I had read that after I was seeking answers. They also have had multiple class action lawsuits in progress as well. I used them for 2 years in the past and didn't connect the hair loss with it. Just thought it was age. But going without dye within 4-6 months my temples grew in very thick and since then haven't had abnormal loss. My husband was amazed at my hair being so much more healthy after the fact.
When I see women with gray hair on Instagram or UA-cam it’s really inspiring, but when I see women with gray hair in real life it’s less inspiring. I think it’s because everyone has it fresh and styled on social media. Thank you for watching!!💖🥰

Hi Lori! Accepting our white hair really is something most of us have to be ready for. In our generation it was a symbol of aging, but now even young people in their 20’s go silver. For me, there is that psychological element to it. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. I hope you have a wonderful day ❤️🕊
Hi, Dawn! Your hair is beautiful and I can't believe you go to bed with it damp and wake up with it so gorgeous!!❤
Hi Kim!
Aww 🥰 Thank you!! I do have to brush it when I wake up. When my hair was really short I would wake up with the craziest hair!! It was kind of fun to see how wild it would get.😂
Yes please fir the root touch up video
If you are just going to do a root touch up what would the ratio be?
What is your drugstore root touchup color and brand you use
I stopped coloring my hair (Oct 2021) almost two years ago. To me it was worth it. I went cold turkey and I have always been dark brown. I have alot of gray in parts, in the back not as much but still streaked with white. Looking back I realize how much I was focused on maintaining the roots, how destructive hair color was on my scalp and actually how the gray helps me be more confident and myself. There is a demarcation line still but it's way more natural and I have had more compliments since going gray and natural. I think it's a matter of confidence for most women. The in between stages can appear to some as women don't care about themselves but it's quite the opposite. I use to have hair loss alot when I dyed my hair. Madison Reed really caused alot of loss. I was amazed at about 4 months after stopping the color how thick my hair grew back in. I've heard this from alot of women doing the same.
That’s awesome!! I’m not ready yet…
I had the same problem with Madison Reed. I stopped using it years ago after I had significant hair loss after using it as my hair color. It took awhile before I made the connection but I did some research at the time. MR says it is more natural but it use(d) an ingredient called ethanolamine, instead of ammonia, which has been shown to cause more damage than the ammonia and specifically has hair loss attributed to it. I wasn't ready to go gray so I started using henna to color my hair. It is a whole other process and very time consuming but my hair started to grow back in after I stopped the Madison Reed. My friends have gone gray, but I'm just not ready yet.
@@curlgirl4265 That’s so interesting!! I like the look of Matera Marigold, but it’s 4 times the price of just mixing my own color. That’s why I stopped using it. I’m intrigued by henna!
It's so great to be free from coloring your hair huh 🥳 For many years ,probably since I was 13 yrs old ...I have colored my hair either auburn,or a medium shade of brown and even bleached it superblonde. I haven't colored it in maybe a year and I've noticed it's thicker,darker and smoother. I have a few greys "white" that are scattered but no thick pieces unfortunately.I love natural grey hair on women &men,esp when it's taken care of properly.
@@curlgirl4265 Yes, I had read that after I was seeking answers. They also have had multiple class action lawsuits in progress as well. I used them for 2 years in the past and didn't connect the hair loss with it. Just thought it was age. But going without dye within 4-6 months my temples grew in very thick and since then haven't had abnormal loss. My husband was amazed at my hair being so much more healthy after the fact.
Beautiful Dawn
Thank you so much, Joyce!!!💖💛

Hi Dawn I don't color any more almost 2 years iam gray and brown lol😊
And you’re beautiful 🤩
@@DawnsLifeover40 awwwww thank you
I’m not keen on grey hair tbh, that’s just me. Everyone is different ❤
When I see women with gray hair on Instagram or UA-cam it’s really inspiring, but when I see women with gray hair in real life it’s less inspiring. I think it’s because everyone has it fresh and styled on social media. Thank you for watching!!💖🥰
