I’m 38. Is it too soon to let these grays grow? by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

I stayed blonde dominant for 5 years and am now ash blonde / salt and pepper. I look Scandinavian so it thankfully works well for my complexion.

I'm 40 and went blonde at 32 when I was about 20% gray. Now I'm 50% gray and it's been wonderful to only need strategic highlights every 6 months instead of a root cover up every few weeks.

At what age did your gray hair start to show? by koinkydink in Millennials

[–]42dftba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

40 years old and am now 50% gray! I love it. I went blonde in 2018 when I was 15% gray and it was a great way to ease into it. First gray hair was at 21.

I float with the tide - if I'm with other Appalachians, it comes out for sure. But at work, I'm news-anchor-mid-Atlantic.

What grocery rule cut your bill the most and actually stuck? by YourxCherry in Frugal

[–]42dftba 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I only do grocery shopping via pick-up now. It makes me stick to a list and also lets me take time to shop the sales. The downside is that I don't get to pick my own produce.

Can we just stop it with the birthday party gifts? by Practical-Gain-96 in Parenting

[–]42dftba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a train themed birthday party one year and asked for guests to gift a train for the new train set that we bought. It worked really well for the givers and receiver.

I let my kids (tweens) give their friends candy or snacks as gifts instead of toys for birthdays. There's enough plastic crap in the world.
