There are a couple of Q hosts I'm not going to "embrace" and their hair has nothing to do with my feelings about that.

        Exactly!!!!  Poor presentations skills far outweigh hosts' looks!!! 

       I am watching less and less QVC because of the appalling behavior of some hosts.

Women are under pressure to color their hair, men not so much. I stopped coloring my hair in my 50s when the grey roots started showing after 2 weeks. I'm glad I did. I hope we continue to appreciate everyone including QVC hosts as we all age. Grey/Gray is beautiful!


@EverettBarb And NOT GRAY is beautiful as well.

Here we go again: It's the monthly battle between going gray or not going gray. Interesting that no one ever wins the debate.

I decided to go  grey when I became a certified YMCA group exercise instructor. Boomer instructors were pretty much all going natural. We have to meet the same physical teaching requirements as the 20 year olds. I did it for 2 disciplines with arthritis and one total knee replacement.

Wow.....folks are really angry about something. Forget I asked the question. No wonder QVC deleted so many posts.

It's part of society's expectation for women to look younger and prettier.

It's true you rarely see newscasters or TV actresses embracing their gray strands. Youth is pushed on us all day long. I watched a Perry Mason episode from the late 1950's and Ellen Corby (Grandma Walton) was credited as 'old lady'  - when looked her up, she wasn't even 50 when she played that part (born 1911 and filmed in 1959).
