I've never understood why some people make it their business to care what people do with their hair. I was at church camp the other night while a woman kept pointing out to me every 5 min who has dyed hair and who doesn't... I listened for a while and almost said "if their hair bothers you, why don't you go color your own". She is greying now that she is pushing 50 and I know she is taking it hard... however, I wish she would leave everyone else alone.
I get sick of people pointing out a liberty that someone might take (such as coloring hair) and gripe about it when they really would like the liberty to do the same.
As for my own hair... now that I am 40, I broke down and did a box thingy at Walmart... I am greying slightly at the temples... I went a shade lighter than my natural color... no one even noticed.... *sigh* I even asked people if they saw anything different... no one noticed.. everyone said it looked like my natural color.. So, so much for hair color not looking natural!!!

I must rebuke you for relaying the kind of behaviour in this woman that I am assured does not exist in old time Pentecost.
How dare you suggest OTP women spend precious time judging others and checking out how they measure up to the legalism!

The lady complaining to you about others is my pet peeve. It seems to me that when people complain about others, they really wish they could do whatever they are complaining about. Why else would people give a hoot?

Not always. My issue is this. If your assembly doesn't have a standard on it, and you want to dye your hair, do it. It is between you and God. I don't agree with it, I think it is vanity. But I do have a BIG problem, when a lady is part of a specific assembly that holds to the belief of not dying the hair, and the women just go off and do what they want to anyways.
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.

I have more of a problem with a man suggesting a women needs to dye her hair then a women having vanity.

Just a question....why is it that dyeing hair is fake, but wearing deodorant and perfume isn't?
I mean, that's not disagreement, but it seems we pick and choose what 'fake' is and ignore other things we do to prevent the 'au naturale' appearance.....which I'm happy they do!
