You're not alone

I've been teasing my DH about his temples going grey for a few years now. It has been a very slow process and it's still only really noticeable to me because I get close enough to see and I like to pick on him for it lol. So that started maybe when he was 26-27 I think, it was just after we got married, and his best mate who got married two months before us had noticed some too. So they were blaming the wives lol.

Anyway, in January this year I went to the hairdresser and got a cut with no colour for the first time in years. The time before I'd gotten colour to match my natural colour so the growth wouldn't be natural. And now, about 3 weeks ago, DH plucked a grey from the top of my head!! I can't see any more myself so I'm not bothered by it, but I might start getting home dye kits in my natural colour if they get too bad. I'm 29 and I think that's about when my Mum got her first too.

I also have a friend one year older than me who is basically completely grey. I think it's a lot more common than people would think, but almost everyone colours their hair (I only know a few that don't) so it's not noticeable.
