Thanks so much for this article, Dee, I learned a lot. Tell me though, why shouldn't we pluck out our grays?

Glad you like it Swing! You shouldn't pluck your gray hairs out for a few reasons. First, plucking it out will only result in it growing back in again and it may grow in more wiry. Even if it doesn't grow in a different texture, it will grow back. It is a myth that plucking gray hairs makes more grow in though.

Multiple plucking weakens the hair follicle and continual plucking of it could permanently damage it to the point where the hair won't grow back at all. Once they start coming in, you wil notice more and more and will pluck more and more. Not good. It is better to just put a color through than to pluck.
