Sorry I can't be of great help with the color, but I do want to say
that you should go with a hair color that YOU like. Nothing is more
attractive than a woman who thinks she is attractive!!! Don't worry
about what color your husband thinks he would like on you--he'll be
happy if you feel pretty, I am sure.

I have had great success getting a beautiful golden color from Light
Mountain henna mixes, mixed with camomile, black walnut, coffee, tea,
and turmeric. However, I have light brown hair with no grey. I
personally love Blondie's hair in the mixes section--check her out.
Good Luck.
