if you're mid to light brown to dark blonde then adding ash blonde highlights will disguise them effectively. Failing that it's a trip to superdrug and buying dye for 100% grey coverage. You dont say how much grey you have. If it isnt much then the highlights might make it look like you have more but it works the other way if you have alot of grey hair. Whatever you do dont buy anything with red in it and do it yourself, the grey will turn pink!

I started getting grey hair when I was 28!! UGH! I know how you feel...The best thing I've found is to get your hair colored. The grey hair automatically makes a lighter color "highlight". Semi permanent color only worked for a short time before it faded. Permanent is the way to go. I've done it at home when in a pinch. Not quite as good as the salon permanent color, but it works.
Look at it this way, an all over color with "natural" highlights is cheaper than a foil! :) Good luck!

To those that say just go grey....why!!! its so easy to keep it coloured now, why would any woman want to look older than she really is. Just remember that the darker your hair is the more the grey shows through! and as you get older your skin colour lightens so your hair needs to also. Cheapest way is home dyeing, best way? good salon, find a colourist you trust and go every 8 weeks or so.

It would of been a help if you had described your hair colour more...highlights are a good idea as the grey will be less noticable and your regrowth won't be as noticable, where as an allover colour would show your grey more as it's more of a block colour...

Cleopatra had a great idea.
Use lots of eye make up and that distracts from the fact that you shaved your head .. No more grey hairs!
just kidding ...
but you can try accessories that would distract from your hair, or highlight other features

Well, if you are a blonde or brunette just go with dye and use john freida glaze. If you have red hair, tea and henna! If you have black hair Indigo Powder with a little henna and tea. It really helps. Grey hair doesn't go away, the color will just stick longer!
