    My aunt went grey in her twenties in a family of ten where none of the others went grey prematurely. I think that's just throwback genetics. She did not suffer more stress than anyone else.

    I'd like to be a little more grey. Goes better with my wig. And makes me look more authentic

    When did you notice you had grey hairs?

    I have a couple (that I can see) at almost 33. My mum started going grey around this age too, and now is silver top deck (still really dark at the bottom). I'm not phased really.

    I am 40, DH noticed one this year, we pulled it out. DH is 40 this year - I plucked one off his chest.

    I guess have been lucky. Dont need to start using grey coverage hair colour (yet)...

    I was 18 I think!

    My hairdresser found 2 identical skunk patches of 'white' hair behind my ears. As i was there getting blonde streaks put in it did not matter too much.

    I have not developed any more since then and just have 2 very random patches that thankfully are in the middle of other hair anyway!

    Re: When did you notice you had grey hairs?

    I just noticed my first grey hairs over the last few days so had to come and share. I think they are grey, it is actually hard to tell but I have to admit I got a little excited LOL. Just turned 26 over the weekend.

    When I go grey I will be going grey. Gave up bothering with my hair yonks ago and not about to go back.

    I found my first grey hairs when I was 24. I am now 31 with a reasonable amount of them. It doesn't matter to me. I certainly won't be colouring it and supporting industries that have massive marketing campaigns to tell us that our natural ageing process is unsightly and that we don't look good enough as we are.

    I have just started finding grey hairs sprouting for the top of my head. I'm 37. Not sure how I'll manage them, I only managed the hairdressers once in 2013, so I'm guessing something that's easy maintenance

    Welp. I was 17 I think when I found the first one (well actually my sister found it and thought it was hilarious). Needed to start colouring to hide them when I was about 24 as they were very noticeable by then.

    Re: When did you notice you had grey hairs?

    I've had grey hairs since I was little, my mum has always found them. I get the random ones now... I think eventually my quite dark hair will go white / silver like my nan & aunt.
