I'm 60 (AAAACK said it out loud) and still mostly blonde. There's plenty of gray mixed in, but if you saw me you'd say "There's a blonde". (Well, no, you'd probably say "There's a fat lady")

I can't imagine myself going to that much effort...I think if I look really ghastly when it all goes gray, I'll take up wearing a chapeau.
I think blondes and red heads gray really well. It blends nicely. But, the darker the hair, the more the contrast, thus, the more noticeable it is.

I have a great hair dresser. Occasionally, she would dye my hair - maybe once or twice a year - and only charge me for a haircut. Anyhow, I would always ask her if there was white highlighting she could do to blend that one streak. She'd laugh and say I was the only customer she had that wanted gray highlights. LOL
