Grey/White hairs - age?

[JonB]

Dear oh dear. I know I was old before my time, but I have physical confirmations now after my darling wife pointed out I have a patch of 10 hairs that have gone from grey to white.

I'm 25.

My Dad didn't go grey until at least mid-thirties, so I am somewhat surprised.

I always said i'd go grey gracefully, however I may review this stance given my premature lightness. Fortunately I have blonde/brown hair so not too obvious...

Anybody else go grey in their twenties?

I started going grey (and I mean George Clooney grey) when I was 14.

The biches love it.

I'm getting greys in my 30s.. but to be honest that's still way better than losing hair on top of your head like some do

I'll go grey one day, but I've have a lustrous head of dark hair and not a grey in sight at 28. My dad is grey but has a full head of hair and he's almost 60, so I'm hopeful.

[Minty]

Key word in OP's post, "wife". I got married at 23 and started going grey on the walk back up the aisle.

Visible grays since my early 20s but it's not getting too much worse as I get very close to 30. Doesn't bother me, as I have friends who are developing bald patches!

[RhynoCZ]

23, and I don't care. There are worse things that could happen.

36, I spot the odd one or two. Some people I know my age are completely grey.

32 now, had a couple of grey hears on one part of my head about a year but not got any greyer,

beard however over the last year has progressively got greyer and is now about 30% grey, the woman really likes it though for some reason,

I'm 25. Divorced. One kid. Receding hairline and a few scattered grey hairs. Even a few wrinkles.

I still pretend I'm a sexy fucker though.

36. A few greys but mostly brown still. No signs of receding yet.

Most of my old mates who had hair I'd have killed for back in our teens are balding pretty badly now.

[Robby]

Ha. You are old.

My dad is just starting to go grey. He's 62.

That's right ladies, line up, receive my genes.

[Walloper]

[Timbo Foggins]

Had noticeable greys from about 13 onwards. I'd say it's about 70/30 jet black to silver now at 20. No signs of thinning though so I'll probably have a silver mop at 30.

[Walloper]

I work in the Middle East where lots of the men and Asian (Aerabs too.)
They are very vain so take to dying their hair.
The funniest 'look' is the Jet Moustache (Tashes are 100% required by most Asian men if a you wish to be accepted as a male ) with the grey/white mop.
Usually spotted whenever they remove their hard hat or baseball cap.
Normally the hard hat/baseball cap exchange is carried out in a fluid movement so no one sees the contrast.

May Allah Bless 'em.
