Trying to get through the journey of growing my hair back

I  used to have a really nice concave light brown bob, after chemo , I am grey or salt and pepper as my friends call it.

I am keeping the grey , but keeping it short, my hairdresser says to me "do you know how much I charge to have hair colour like yours"", so I take that as as complement and bite back on my "I wish my old hair back".

It's funny though when I am with my Mum, I'm 50 and grey she's 81 and blonde, go figure :)
