How old were you when you found your first grey hairs?

ganesh · 1 Jun 2015 at 00:03

Age 29 and apart from a pure white hair in my beard I don't have any. But I think being a ginger makes me immune, for another couple of decades at least anyway.

No greys downstairs yet either.

Ahh but how vain are you?

(General question)

If you get to the point of dyeing them "Upstairs"

Do you go to the extra effort of dying them "Downstairs" too??

i went bald before i went grey. I'm still trying to work out if that was a good thing or not at 27....probably not

Prefer to be grey than losing it

I'm not losing it for now.

(But I do use dye)

If I actually feel that I am losing it I will do a grade 1

(The Lady will not like it but that vs comb-over/whatever is much more preferable)

Think I got my first at around 23 and now at 30 I've got a grey chin to match my silver stripes on my temples...

MikeTheNative · 1 Jun 2015 at 08:58

I was only 15

Now at 21 it's rather grey.

Justintime · 1 Jun 2015 at 09:00

31, 33 this year and its still like 3 or 4 so far and mostly unnoticeable, has to be in the right angle/light. Nothing on face.

Oh, any day.

Early twenties for me. I've got really dark brown hair, so the odd grey hair stands out like a sore thumb.

Same here, and as I got older I just kept getting more and more

Now I'm 31 I have shedloads. Wife makes me dye it, but I kind of prefer to dye it anyway since they take the pee out of me at work if I leave it grey. :mad:

I first noticed somewhere in my early 40s

chroniclard · 1 Jun 2015 at 13:22

Beard starting to go grey at 40. Main hair ok so far.

foster grant · 1 Jun 2015 at 13:24

Lol, I shave mine off

The IPB · 1 Jun 2015 at 13:37

29 with really dark hair, I get the odd couple which the wife pulls out!

My Dad is 62 and not fully grey yet, so I should be ok if I follow that path.

Not that it worries me.

GhostWKD · 1 Jun 2015 at 13:38

Didn't have any greys before I met the better half... just saying

foster grant · 1 Jun 2015 at 13:39

Deep · 1 Jun 2015 at 13:45

I've had greys since my late teens.
It's alright for me though since I've got absolutely loads of hair to cover the greys.

I've had one in my beard which I found last year.

I'm not really bothered by them though, there is nothing I can do to stop it so might as well accept it.

Urbanfreestyle · 1 Jun 2015 at 13:49

Probably had a fair few greys before i noticed but i must have been about 19 when i started paying attention, Now 30, i dye my hair blue and shave the rest haha!

Raoh · 1 Jun 2015 at 14:54

Only really noticed the odd one in the last year; 34 now - age not grey hairs.
