Our hair changes throughout our entire lives. As we age, our hair will eventually begin to turn gray, and the texture will become thicker, dry and even wiry. Many people also complain about the color of gray they have--it can look dull and lackluster. If you love your gray hair but want to enhance it, instead of dyeing it to the color you had when you were in your 20s, add a different gray color. Boxed gray dyes will add shine, depth and highlights. These highlights will give your gray a multidimensional color and look. And the best part ... no unsightly roots.
