« on: May 19, 2003, 06:34:17 am »
I have recieved my first few grey hairs last night I noticed about 5 - and I am 21 years old - I just wonder people's ages when they have noticed grey and how it has effected thier hair - are you completely grey - do you color your grey, have they gone away and havn't come back, was it due to stress, etc?

thank you,
Steph
xoxo

I noticed my first gray hair when I was 14! It was really white and there were 3 of them. Really stuck out with my black hair. I still have some. Maybe 5 now. I am not really worried about it though.

I had my first grey hairs when I was in elementary school (I don't remember at exactly what age)... my doctor said it is hereditary, and there is nothing I can do to stop it (other than color it, which I do).  My dad was bald by the time he was 21, and I know that I am slowly going bald as well (partly because of genetics).

At least now I know I'm not alone  :)

well see i dont know if i said this before - but its not genetics - my mom didnt start to grey until 40 - so it must be purely stress - doesn't that suck - i already do color - but thats because i like to try new things - not because of grey - but now these greys are causing more stress - am i going to look like that girl from x-men???

yeh - it would be cool - if it was growing in white - cause then you could dye it bright shades --- unfortunately like me and i am sure a huge amount of people --- i am silver and not actually white or grey --- :(
