I found my first gray hair 5 years ago. Now, I have several visible at a time and I get highlights to camoflage in my dark honey-blonde hair. It is not working so well anymore. When should I switch to full-blown coloring my hair?

I suppose it depends on how comfortable you are with aging.
Myself, I am only 33, but I have been coloring my hair for years just because I like to make my hair a darker reddish brown than it is. About a month ago I noticed a few greys in the front and at first tried just hiding them in my hair or thinking of them as highlights. The funny thing is, no one noticed them but me, and eventually I couldn't stand the thought of those few greys at my age, so I attacked them with my favorite color and feel much better.
On the other hand, I have a collegue at work that has long hair down to the middle of her back and you can see from the ends up where she started to grey and at the top where she's now mostly grey. She says it doesn't bother her and that she's earned every one of them.
So......like I said, I guess it really depends on how you view yourself and your level of acceptance in regards to your own aging. Do what makes you feel good about you!
Good luck! : )

Any time you feel comfortable. If it's starting to bother you right now then ask your hairdresser to dye your hair to your natural honey blonde color and put in some highlights as well. One warning to you, it's gonna be a lot of money to keep getting rid of those grays.

It is entirely down to personal choice. If colouring ur hair would make u feel better then personally i would say go for it. I have been colouring my hair since i was 13 i am always changing it lol. I am now 30 and have not found any grey but i still colour my hair all the time. Good luck with whatever u decide to do. x

When it really starts to bother, or when your hairdresser says it's time.
I'm 29 and do HEAVY highlights to cover all the gray I've got in hair the same color as yours. It's not perfect, but my boyfriend can't tell *wink*.

Try using a hair coloring product that is the same color as your hair that will color the gray. If you like it continue to color your hair. If you don't like it, no big deal as it will be the same color as your hair.

Well your grays are obviously bothering you. It's only a hair colour after all. Why not? I would.

Anytime you want to. Try to blend with a natural shade close to your to start with. Also a weekly rinse or semi perm Color to see if your like the shade before going for a perm color.
