My Greying Love Below

Today started out as a pretty normal day. I woke up, showered, grabbed a bite to eat and decided not to head into work. I planned on only spending a few hours working from home and then head out to run some errands. Around 10 a.m I wrapped up everything I was doing and decided to head out. Something told me to stop by the bathroom before I left because I had two bottles of water and some grapes for breakfast (how appetizing).

So, I’m in the bathroom doing my ‘thing’ and I look down and saw a glimmer of something. I blinked a couple of times b/c I thought I must have been seeing things. I opened my eyes, and looked again. That’s when I almost had a conniption fit!

I saw grey hair on my 'love below'!!

I couldn’t f^king believe it then, and I still can’t believe it now. I figured I would further inspect, just to make sure I was seeing correctly, but it was clear as day! WTF!! Considering I turned 32 this year, I’ve only found one piece of grey hair on my head and that really wasn’t a big deal. When I found the grey hair on my head, I looked at it for a second and said, “Oh well”, and moved on. BUT…this is something totally different. My mother never told me about grey hair down there…LMAO!

I called a friend of mine and  I told her my life was coming to the end (yes, I was being very overdramatic, but well..that’s how I am sometimes). She asked what was wrong in her concerned voice. I told her what I discovered, and she said, "Wowwwwwwwwwww, yeah pretty much!”…then we started to laugh and discuss our grey horror stories.

Well, considering that I’m a slave to the hair dye, I guess I can’t really tell how many other greys I have on my head. Right now, my hair is various shades of browns & some honey/blonde splashed in, there’s no sight of grey at all….but now, everytime I go to the bathroom, I’ll be forced to notice that one little glimmer of grey!

But wait, upon further investigation,  I've found the perfect solution to my greying love below! I remembered earlier this summer in Oprah's Magazine, there was a "We Tried It" article about "Betty Beauty"! Yes, people Betty Beauty is a hair dying product for the pubic area! You can go from Jet Black to Fushia, or even carve out some pretty cool halloween designs with their stencil package! I swear, there's a solution for just about everything nowadays.

Now, I guess the hard part is trying to figure out what color I want to use. Decisions, decisions.

Was the first color that popped into my head when I thought about which one I'd want to use!

That is one thing I've never done...It brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it....It hurts just to take a bandaid off my arm when its attached to hair...Oh the horror of that feeling magnifyed 10xs.

I'm all about the dying process!  Who needs real hair color when the fake will do so nicely!?  But I've never considered the south of the border color.  You've got me thinkin' babycakes.  Hm.  Wonder what a crazy color would do for a girls ego?

It makes me feel so old.  My solution?  Wax.  ;)

why not change the color entirely?  Like red or something.

I have finally let go of dying my hair on my head because I can't keep up with it.  I started turning gray in my 20s.  Interestingly, although I'm going for the silver and not for the gold on top - I haven't had a gray hair below yet.  And when they come, I will not dye because I'm a little nervous about that kind of chemical in that precious region.

Thanks for the laugh this morning.
