Chi Essentials Hair Color Review

As I get older a different color hair keeps showing up in my curly brunette hair.  Where did the gray come from? Is it me getting closer to 40? My 4 children? Quarantine? Or maybe all of the above?? Regardless of the reason, a new gray pops up every few days.  I wear those shiny
