I started losing my hair when I was 25. When I was about 42 my beard started to turn white. Now I’m 61 and I have lost all my hair on top, but on the sides I still have a lot of hair. Just above my sideburns my hair has turned gray, and I don’t like it because it makes me look like a mean old man. Other than that, I don’t worry much about my hair.

I got my first gray at 28. Now I have a lot of silver strands at 44. Doesn’t bother me, I like them.

I had a few grays when I was a child. When I was in my mid 40’s, my hair was long, (shoulder length), very thick, and salt and pepper.

Then, in my late 40’s, my hair started falling out in handfuls so, I got a buzz cut and I loved it.

Then, when I was 51 years old, my only child died and my hair turned solid gray overnight. Everyone commented on it. The exact same thing happened to my mom when my brother died.

Had my first grey as a teenager but the second one at the ripe age of 30. Now I’ve got maybe two dozens which is not much (I’m 36). I don’t use fancy hair products or skin care. All I care about is how I feel on the inside.

My own hair started to thin out at about 42. It’s so thin compared to my younger years

You was always told that gray hair is something you earned.

I don’t bother about silver hair anymore… That is more a sign that the body starts deteriorating. I get little pains and aches. Thankfully I done lots of sports till my late 40’s and get spared from real pain. It seems I helped my arthritis in the spine. Its not that painful anymore.

By the time I was 30 I was completely white and grey. I stopped colouring my hair approx 3 years ago. I’m 51.

Presidents often go into office with normal, brown or black hair and by the time they leave office most of them have grey or white hair. An exception was Ronald Reagan, he was our oldest president but his hair remained black his whole term. He always denied dyeng it but finally admitted it once he left office.

It’s genetic dude. I am doing ok with salt and pepper but I’ve a brother who’se dyed his hair since he was 18. In the middle ages if you made 30 you were an old man. I think your doing ok so lose the vanity and just deal with it.

It can be cool if your getting the gals/partners…I often say it’s the Richard Gere approach. :slight_smile:

My dad hasnt gone gray even though he’s 62. I’ve got some Grey coming on and I’m 36.

My Grama’s mom, so my great grama?? Ended up at age 14 with a handful of curly black long hair with a white 3 inch wide streak down the one side. No dyes worked on it. My Grama never dyed her hair ever and when she died at 67 she had no grays. My mom and I started dying our hair around age 10, my mom still dyed every 4 months or so, but my last dye was a few years back and I went red. Well, gray shows up really weird mixed in with Red hair, it’s since washed out now I’m mousey brunette and silver.

Hubby is gonna be 37, but he started graying a lot earlier than we let on. He has never dyed his hair, and he is trying for a wizard beard. Unless the guys gotta shave it all off for medical clearance…
