Grey, gray, silver, platinum, far more than fifty shades...........

"Darling," she instructed me, "would you reach in that drawer there and give me my purse.
A girl doesn't read this sort of thing without her lipstick."
-Truman Capote

   Well...as many of you know, aside from being an art educator, I am a print model (represented by IKON NY Model Management in NYC www.ikonmodels.com). My agent arranged to have my hair colored silvery/grey/platinum at the CUTLER Salon in NYC , feeling that she could market it me more effectively to the 50+ market with gray hair. Here are the results thus far; we are awaiting a proper shoot scheduled to occur in two weeks or so.





      Well...what happens now? An entire psychological delve into being fifty, being grey (or gray, or silver, albeit a forced change- not natural) and a mad rush through my cosmetics to figure out what colors to use!! I will post my discoveries soon; am thinking of writing an illustrated manual documenting this search. The lipstick roundup begins now........
