Dana Nunez

My name is Dana. I'm 37 years old. I've had grey hair since I was 16. I finally decided to embrace my natural hair color and stop dying my roots. 

I made this page to document the progress of growing out my silver, but also to talk about the reality of the process in real time.

It's easy to look at a woman who have fully grown out their silver and feel motivated to ditch the dye. But what helps me the most is seeing women who are still in the process. It gives me some much needed encouragement. 

It's so difficult to not hide my roots before leaving the house. It takes so much mental preparation to pump myself up before seeing anyone now. I've struggled with anxiety for a long time so sometimes it's hard for me not to worry about the opinions of others. 

I'm most looking forward to not having to schedule life events around my salon appointments. My root touch up schedule has been dictating my life for far too any years now. That all ended on July 24, 2024!
