I think some of my hair died because it is thinner than it used to be.

Gail, Billie, Gerry, Mrs.DJ:
I am kinda jealous of you gals that still have enough hair to color and style...my fine blonde hair has been washing off my head. I have more in my brush and in the sink every day... ...and yep it's gone from a mostly blondish tone to some kinda dishwater silver....63 sucks some days! I have been toying with the idea of chopping off this thin stuff but my hair is so fine...not sure that would result in an improvement.
Gail...your hair color solution sounds like great fun! I work on a College campus and several of the faculty in their 50-60s are adding in deep purple or pink...the "kids" seem to like it and it makes a sassy statement!
I say seize the day and color while you may!
Hi Deb,My hair thinned out a lot when I went on Sprycel so I started taking vitB12 I think it helped a lot and it's good for your fingernails too. I have to keep my hair layered or it looks a lot thinner.
