Super, Kit. I relate to the experience--one of the many reasons I love your stories.

I had a few hair pieces . . . stories. Here's what I do now--go to a salon maybe every six months and get a meche/weave. In between I use Roux Fanciful Fawn on the roots which I ask visitors to bring me from the States. You can get it on Amazon, more expensive though and the colours are different. I am not yet ready to go grey. I'd like to see an after picture.
