Funny how much noise there is about something as natural as gray hair.

But this journey? It’s been less about going gray and more about unlearning the nonsense I believed for way too long.

Letting go of the dye didn’t mean letting myself go—it meant finally choosing me✨

Follow along for real-life proof that gray hair can look good, feel good, and be entirely your own.

I stopped dyeing my hair…and it changed more than just how I look. It changed how I feel. More freedom. More ease. More me. ✨

Gray hair confidence isn’t loud. It shows up in the quiet ways: the outfit you reach for, the smile that comes without overthinking, the way you stop apologizing for just being you.

This is what confidence beyond the dye looks like for me 🩶

If you’re thinking about going gray, or already on the journey, come hang out. You’re not alone.

Who says a nude lip can’t work with grays?

This $12 gloss proves otherwise—hydrating, not sticky, and just enough shine. I’ve been reaching for this one nonstop lately.

Comment or DM me “LIPS” and I’ll send you the link 💋

I’ve always loved a good nude lip—but since going gray, I’ve become more mindful about tones that actually work with my changing tones ✨

This @cocokind lip blur balm has been on repeat. It adds just enough shine, hydrates, isn’t sticky, and enhances my natural lip without overpowering. Bonus: With a price tag of $12, it’s affordable and feels like a little daily luxury.

It’s from an AAPI-founded brand I’ve admired for a while, so it felt like the perfect time to share during AAPI Heritage Month.

This gray hair era has shifted how I approach beauty—less about covering up, more about choosing what feels simple, flattering, and real 🩶

I just couldn’t take my grays anymore…

Not because I’m giving up on going gray…but because I hit a rut. The grow-out looked dull. The texture felt off. And suddenly, I started questioning it all.

But instead of running back to the dye, I went for gray hair TLC: A fresh cut, a deep condition, and a reminder that I don’t need to fix anything…I just needed a reset.

Seven and a half months in since I ditched the dye and this journey is still teaching me: You won’t love every phase, but you don’t quit on yourself when it gets hard. ✨

They call it “distinguished” on men. But on women? It’s still “too much.” Too bold. Too visible. Too honest.

I’ve heard it all…and I’m still showing up. ✨
Gray and growing, even when the world expects me to shrink.

If this hits home for you too… I’d love to have you here.
Follow along…we don’t have to do this alone 🩶
