Hey Filly. Look at you. Those are some great pictures. I like the one with your granddaughter the best. You have an uncanny resemblance to my childhood best friends mom. It’s comforting.
There you are !

Hi to everyone from ME BLUE xxxxxxxxx
I can’t see very well, only a small bit out of one eye. so I can’t comment like I would love to, but just a short note to say to everyone “I love you all”…I am so excited to see Bratti back…
I want to comment on each of your posts and I will as soon as possible. I am seeing surgeons for the next two days, to see what they can do for me. I have been very ill and allergic to the drops that they used to do my cataract surgery. I have been to hell and back, and I wanted to just die.
I am taking severe panic attacks where I can’t even breath…everything was so terrible.
But I am not in hospital anymore and getting better…My hair is still growing and I still have plans just like I have been talking about. I will have blue and silver hair if it is the last thing I ever do, hahahaha…
If anyone believes in prayer, please pray for me.
Hugs for everyone :hug::hug::hug::hug::hug::hug:
Oh my goodness Blue:hug: I did not know you were in the hospital. I’m so sorry. Ok now I’ve GOT TO KNOW what happened. I read the part about being allergic to the eye drops. That must have been bad. Ouch! You poor soul.
I believe in prayers and will pray for you.
You’ll feel it to.
Speaking of panic attacks. I’ve been getting my fair share of them also lately. We have a lot in common.
You will look great with coloured hair Blue and how appropriate. Blue for blue. Buy some silver too. It really adds nice dimension to the colour.
I’m looking forward to meeting you somewhere this summer. We will have so much fun.
My girlfriend got permanent bubble gum pink in her hair.
Later!
Thoughts & Prayers for YOU Blue
Hey Blue girl,
There’s a thread asking for thoughts and prayers for you.
You will have to log in as it got moved to the ‘self moderated’ section. Members here are wishing you well. I do hope you are feeling better soon my feisty friend. :hug:
Namaste!
Thank you Bratti for making the thread for Blue. It’s heartwarming to see how many forum members wish her well.
Get better soon Blue x
“Hey Filly. Look at you. Those are some great pictures. I like the one with your granddaughter the best. You have an uncanny resemblance to my childhood best friends mom. It’s comforting.”
Hi ya Bratti…the picture with my granddaughter was taken the very first time that Blue came for a visit… Actually, I think I was a tad younger in that photo, perhaps 65…
I guess we all look like someone, Bratti… …I am pleased that “it’s comforting.”
Filly…
Yep! She was like a second mom to me. Put hats and mitts on me often. It’s comforting!
Where did you and blue meet? How did you meet?
What did her HAIR look like ?
Hi Bratti…Blue and I met many, many years ago on a Canadian forum…that has long since become defunct. I cannot name that forum as it is against the rules of this one.
We hit it off immediately and have remained steadfast friends ever since…
The very first time that Blue and I met in person…she had reddish hair and it was short…
So, today I am noticing just how long my hair has managed to grow over the last year…and I have it in a ponytail at the moment…
Take care everyone…
How is Blue now, do you know Filly? Please give her my best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Hi Leia…yesterday and today have been busy days for Blue, with doctor Appts. But, I am hoping to hear from her later this evening…
I shall certainly pass on your best wishes to Blue, for a speedy recovery…
Sorry I missed this.
It was the least I could do for our blue. Hope she comes back soon.
That’s such a cute story. It just goes to show that people can actually meet on a message forum and have lasting friendships. That’s beautiful. I’ve kind of found a new place to hang out too.
I take it you had short hair when you met also. Yours does look quite long. I personally love long hair that’s well cared for.
Thanks for the info Filly.
Me too.
I can appreciate why most doctors only do one eye at a time. Oddly enough I have a friend who lives out east who got both eyes done at the same time but he did have a 90% improvement in both eyes. It’s anazing what they can do these days.
Well Filly thanks for the update. Please keep us informed.
Tell Blue I’m EXPECTING Blue hair when I see her.
Are you ladies getting tired of this cold wet stuff yet?
It’s been three years since it’s been growing out my silvers and now my ombré is more of the look I was going for. Here are some recent pics of my hair and YES I’m a tad vain.
Gorgeous hair bratti…i would be vain too if I had your hair…I’m jealous
Thank you summer. You’re always so kind.
I really care about my hairstyle. I always had long hair and I know how hard it is sometimes to make it as you wish… My hair is not so shiny and soft as it was before but I use a lot of recovering remedies. A good hair mask once per week is really helpful for softness and volume. Here are the reviews of some remedies that I tried. Hope it will come in handy.
Thank you for the link Clarity. It has a lot of deep hair conditioners.
My hair has been multiple colours the past decade, but I’m going back to using a dark brown organic colour as all the bleaching before colouring ruined my hair.
I don’t go to the hairdressers often, but I like to have a lot cut off when I do (mine grows like grass). I usually get them to use the straightening irons, as it’s not so good when I attempt it myself.
I usually just scrunch a few curls in whilst wet, wash and go otherwise.
Your hair is looking great, as the dye fades out. My sister is trying to do similar, but where there’s dye, the difference between the grey and undyed doesn’t look too good at present, so she uses Colour Wow on the roots until most of the old dye has gone.
There’s nothing wrong with a little vanity!
How are you planning on getting organic brown?
Henna & Indigo blends can create brown but you will always have that henna red undertone. I’m all for organic colour but I really do like the artificial blues, greens, pinks, purples, etc.
They look great with silver hair as a base. That’s what I use now and I love them.
Thanks Cache. My hair is now 2 inches from my tailbone and the henna red almost all gone. I really like it. Another tip to use while transitioning are clips close to the head. By pulling back sections and purposefully exposing your roots, creates bold streaks of colour. French braids close to the scull work great also. It took me about 8 months of awkward stages before it started looking cool again but it wasn’t easy.
I’m ok with having some vanity. It keeps me from frumpishness.
The other day I had my hair in a bun and my mother told me I was more grey than her which I am. I’ve got some big bold silver white streaks through my hair. It’s from my dads side.
He’s got silver white hair and so did my grandmother.
Oddly enough I’d never seen my moms natural colour so didn’t know what it was. I was shocked to see matching cherry cola red highlights mixed within my silvers. My mom was a natural red hair.
I like red hair, that’ll make for an interesting combo.
I’ve had the odd grey from very young, but I’ve always dyed my hair, and I respect your decision. It’s working well for you.
It’s a pre mixed hair dye, but has to be left on for at least 4 hours to cover any greys, but it works beautifully. I won’t be changing back to a chemical one now
