Don't see any reason why they shouldn't.  It's a choice and I don't think it's sinful.  I forget where now but I seem to remember reading hair dying was done in the OT times.  They used all kinds of natural dyes, henna being one of them.  We'll leave the hot pink, emerald green, royal blues to the younger set, though.

Definitely the rainbow one, that is, after you get rid of your ponytails.

YUP   its cool to set  behind the older lady ,in church, and check out the hair part that shows the natural colour   .  I remember a time when lipstick was a sin  but eye liner wasn't

My hair is parted - part left on my pillow, part in the bathtub drain, part on my head...

Your're a  hoot!!!    That was another good belly laugh I had tonight.  I'm still laughing.  Every time I look at your post I start laughing all over again.

Cris - I take that as a real compliment.  
I sincerely believe that laughter is one of the most important things God gave us in life, and I try to leave a smile where ever I go.  Since we are in God's image, it leads me to believe the He, also, has a since of humor.  It is hard for me to imagine what makes Him ‘giggle’ - but I think it probably has to do with the innocence of children and their interactions with the so-called “wisdom” of adults.  I don’t know how old you are, but there used to be a show on TV – Art Linkletter – who was a true Christian back when it was OK for Christians to be Christians on TV – and one of his regular things was “kids say the darndest things”.  (I wish they still made shows like that – and Red Skelton – and Carol Burnett – who closed every show with a heart felt “God Bless!”)
I also try to imagine what it may have been like to directly interact with our Lord Jesus as the disciples did.  Surely they had a laugh or two.  We are all familiar with the shortest verse in Scripture:  “Jesus wept” (John 11:35).  I can’t help but believe that there were other times when “Jesus laughed”, times that just didn’t make it into any of the gospels.  

God bless!

You mean it is dying on its own with no help from you?

Well that answers Symphony's question.

Strangely enough, this is something I've been asking myself for awhile now. For me, it's not something I'm comfortable with personally. However, I don't think it's a sin! I just got to a point where I realized that it's not an important issue in my walk with Christ. And if He doesn't care what color my hair is, then I surely don't to!

John 7:24 "...Stop judging by mere appearances, and make a right judgment."

Galatians 2:6 God does not judge by external appearance--

2 Corinthians 10:7 Do ye look on things after the outward appearance?

1 Samuel 16:7 But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
