Lauryn Caldwell, 22, from Glasgow, started noticing grey hairs coming through in her brunette hair when she was just 16 - and began plucking them out.
A Scottish woman who began going grey when she was in high school has decided to embrace her natural natural locks after years of using hair dye.
"At school when it got pointed it out by a girl who would sit behind me she asked me why I have grey hair. She said I was too young for that, and I would say well obviously not as I have it now. "I was dyeing it every three weeks because I was so determined not to be grey. I made sure it was always really dark and saturated in the black dye.
She added: "I stopped dying it in April 2021, as I was so fed up dyeing it constantly and it was becoming hard to keep up with. "My hair maintenance is so much better as I look after it so much more now. I never used heat protection before and would also use the wrong shampoo with silicones in which made my hair even worse. I also do oil treatments regularly and look after it so much more now."There are still days where I look at it and I don't like it, but it's normal as I had that same feeling sometimes when I dyed it, but I feel better for embracing it.
"However recently I have had a lot of positive comments and I think it's because it's a lot more grown out now so you can see the whole colour and people will tell me how nice it looks.
