In my church, anyone who is in "ministry" of any kind (including the choir) has to sign a paper stating that they agree with specific standards, and as representatives of the church, will uphold them. MANY of the women in my church have taken to dying their hair, despite what they agreed to. One particular lady dyes it so much, that her hair is brittle and looks like straw, and every other month is a different shade of her choice color, and she LIES and says she doesn't dye her hair.
It is fake. Do what you are going to do, but don't be a FAKE.
That is the issue that I have, and it is certainly not because I want to dye my hair. I like it just as God painted it with His brush, shiny ones and all

Very good post Sister. I have no desire to dye my hair either as someone stated prior. I had very black hair when I was young, but because I started graying early, I decided to dye my hair black, as I got more and more gray I was continuously seeing white roots shining through. Then I decided I would go blond and probably not have as many visible roots. Then I realized I had more black hair and I was seeing black roots in just a few days. I finally decided when I was in my late 30's that God knew better than I what was best for me. The natural way is always the easy way. Covering up is never easy, whether it be your gray hair, or covering up for a lie you told. Either way, it is a cover up.
I'm posting a photo of me as a blond. I did all of this when I was in a secular religion. Before I came into truth, and became a new creature in Christ. After repentence old things passed away and behold all things became new. Even my old way of life.
