When did you notice you had grey hairs?

[MrsFabuloso]

After I had DD I noticed I starting getting some. So about 28-ish. Now, 5yrs and 3 kids later, I couldn't count them if I tried. And if I pulled them out I would definately be kinda thin on top, lol! Now, I dye my hair to hide my greys, not just because I like to change the colour of it! It's not too bad really, I'm just vain! They are noticable when you look up close and they're getting worse, but if I didn't colour my hair, from a few metres you couldn't see I had grey hairs! My mum was pretty grey by the time she was 40, but my dad is only just starting to get more grey hair than balck at 67. I'm thinking I take after mum with my grey hairs unfortunately!

Noticed my first one just after I turned 40. Still only noticed one or two.

I wonder what it is that makes a difference? I have really dark hair so they are extremely noticable and embarassingly, I have found the odd grey pube too! PS Iam 36.

Genetics maybe. My granny only had a few grey hairs when she was 80 so I've always hoped for her genetic legacy not my Mums (hair-wise that is and legs too - my Granny had awesome pins).

My grandad is the same. My mum didn't get any until late.

I'm 24 and haven't noticed any yet although haven't really gone looking and don't spend much time in front of the mirror. I know DF (27) has a bunch, I love them and think he looks very distinguished haha he always asks me to pull them out though!!

Definitely genetics for me. My mum has 6 brothers and she says they used to pick out her grey hairs at 18! I am 50 now and would probably be totally white as I am gettting it coloured every 4 weeks these days. Mum is white not grey. can only remember getting grey hairs in my late 20s.
