none for me yet.... thank goodness... one of my sisters started to go grey in her early 30's though
Just this year since turning 40! My mum started getting them when she was in her 20's so I think I am pretty lucky to have lasted this long :lol:
None yet!
I discovered my first ones when I was pregnant with DD3, so I was 32/33. They've taken off since then! Lol. I call them 'Ash Blonde'

None yet at 29. My mum has only one or two at 53 and my maternal great grandfather recently passed away at 94 with brown hair and only one or two greys.
My sister on the other hand has quite a lot at thirty and dad is all grey at 59.
I'm almost 42 and I have no grey apart from the odd one every now and again. My mum, at 64, is just starting to get enough grey strands to be noticeable when you're close, and my dad is 68 and is only just starting to go grey at the temples. My great grandmother on my mum's side died at age 84 with a full head of black hair.
i'm going grey, getting more :(
I started noticing after I got married at 21. Apart from the obvious new stress, I had also dyed my hair blue black the night before my wedding, which I think did some damage and caused the greys. I then had to keep dyeing my hair because the greys showed up so starkly against the black.
For the last year I haven't been able to afford the hairdresser, so my hair is its natural colour again. There's a fair amount of salt sprinkled through, but it looks much more natural now. I don't think I'll colour again, at least, not black. I think I might just embrace my supposed wisdomous :)
Does stress actually make your hair go grey? Because some of my hair is grey, brown, grey, brown...like a frikken fossil! You can actually track the times of great stress in my life by the pattern of my grey hair. And then some is just flat out grey. I pull them out :rofl:
I've heard it said that every time you pull out a grey hair 4 more come to its funeral.
I always say, when I get a grey hair out of nowhere, it was coz of one of my kids. But I actually think grey hair is genetic, and not related to stress. But I have NO scientific evidence to back this up. Just saying though, with 3 grown up kids, including one with a drug addiction, 2 divorces, IVF and moving countries, then states, I should probably have a full head of grey hair if it was stress-related!
Yep I heard that too...:
I think it can be related to stress. Maybe it's a combo of stress & genetics. My mum went grey quite early & she has suffered significant stress in her life particularly in her late teens & early twenties. She comes from a large family who otherwise seem blessed with late greying hair. I don't have any scientific studies to back that up though.
I really don't think it has anything to do with stress.
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 :)
I don't have any & I'm not looking! Thats all I will say ;)
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!
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.
haha i saw my first one at 18. then it was all down hill from there. now if i dont colour it i look like a grandma.
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 :)
I found my first before I was 30. Now most of my head is grey....not letting anyone see that though lol.
The grey hairs that have appeared, uuuhhmmm, not on my head :redface: are the ones that make me feel really old!
I don't grey hairs. I just have special magical ones that sparkle in the sunlight ;).
I'm 35 and haven't found any yet, thank you mum for your 'look younger than you are' genes!
I found my first grey hair the other day
It wasn't on my head, it was on my chin! I'm now an old grey bearded lady lol
I found my first one just before xmas, Im nearly 32 (god thats depressing!)
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.
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.
I haven't yet but I noticed last year that DH has quite a few. He's 38.
I have not noticed any on me but DH has several around his temples and he is 30. We have a friend who is complete gray at 30, started when he was 20 and others who became noticeably gray when their first children were born.
I found 4 grey hairs on the day of my 30th birthday :( DH has 4 or 5 and he's 32. He found his first one in his beard when he was 30.
I have LOTS now - too many for a few foils to disguise now, and they're all around my temples and part. I noticed my first in my mid 20's.
After each c-section! I often think it was the Epi and gas etc
Grey? What grey? I only have magic hairs that sparkle in the sunlight.
I got magical hairs a few years ago.
Apparently you only get old when you get magical hairs downstairs.
So I get mine waxed so I don't find out :)
