The Irish Times - Letters to the Editor.

Sir, – Further to your recent feature “Rise of the ‘silver sisters’” (Joanne Hunt, Magazine, June 1st), as the debate rages in the pages of this newspaper (Letters, June 5th and 7th) as to whether women of a certain age should dye their hair or not, I’m just dying to see more auld wans like me featured in the fashion pages. Hair, dyed or not, would be optional. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – I used to have a big mop of dark hair.

Then it went grey. Now I’d settle for a bit of hair of any colour. – Yours, etc

Sir, – Having answered our doorbell, my son said to me: “There’s a man at the door with a head of grey hair.” " Tell him I already have one” was my reply. – Yours, etc,
