#Repost @annikavonholdt • • • • • • Even though more and more women embrace their grey hair, even if grey hair is becoming more and more trendy (and I may have had something to do with that in a small way), I receive many questions from women who want to let their grey grow out, but they are concerned about what people will say. They want to know how I deal with people's reactions? I usually answer that it's none of my business what other people think of me. And that applies to everything in my life, not just my hair colour. If I'd taken everybody's opinion of me and changed, who would I be? In fact, if I had a dollar for every time someone has told me I am "too much"; too loud, too eccentric, too intimidating, too persistent, too careless, too direct, over the top etc, then I'd be able to buy that house in The Narrows, I've had my eye on for years. Whenever somebody gives you unsolicited advice, whenever someone tells you, that you are too much of anything, what they really mean is that you need to dim your shine in order for 'them' to feel comfortable. Don't be yourself! Be 'their' amount. As I see it: my too muchness is just the right amount. And whatever you decide to do with your hair, what ever you choose to wear, even if it's a see-through gold dress on a plain old wednesday afternoon, it's just the right amount. Okay?! (Just remember to crank up the heat). #bewhoyouare #everyoneelseistaken https://www.instagram.com/p/B7V-v0rF8DhJ75ca08jFNtnG8an4hewDbdCEbs0/?igshid=d5loijwo073h
