Would you worry if you started going grey?

Kaneda_

Grey hair.I dont have any yet thank god but a few of my friends have a few strands coming through.It actually suits one of them, he doesnt agree though!

Would you dye it? pluck them out if it was only a few? Or just not care?

galwayrush

Grow old gracefully, don't worry about it.

Samich

Yes as I'm only 20 :P

Ooops i dont belong in this thread.

i would love a shock of long grey hair :cool:

Amigomenor

I have a friend and he is Grey, one night out some girl asked if he was my Dad. I personally think dying your hair or a comb over is madness.

Caireann

Alot of very young girls who dye their hair constantly are actually going grey, so they dye it again to cover it up... It's a vicious circle I tell you!

MetalDog

Nope, I'm looking forward to the day when I can rock the George Clooney look. :cool:

No she didn't.

started going grey at 35, refuse to dye it (am female) because at some stage you need to stop the whole dye thing.My mother is 88 and has dark brown hair...looks a bit odd..

Started in twenties and now completely silver. Would like to have my black hair back if I could achieve it naturally but I wouldn't dye it.

deathrider

Starting to go grey myself, but only a few strands here and there as of yet.
I'm looking forward to my beard becoming grey became that will automatically make me wise. People will flock from everywhere asking me to solve their problems with the power bestowed upon me through my old-man-beard.

I'm sure it's better than going bald.

Mine recedes a little. But I've always thought to myself- As long as your Bill Murray doesn't turn into a Phil Collins, you're alright.

Ghandee

I'm 34, supposedly very fresh looking, but have started to go grey at the sides of my head. No big deal as far as I'm concerned.

But........ Grey hairs have started appearing on my chest, that's another thing all together! It was the chest hairs that finally made me think of my grandad when,i look in the mirror (god rest him! ):(

Already happened, at bloody 19 years of age.

Thanks genetics.

It looks really good on men, but grey haired women (unless you're Helen Mirren) look like hags. it's not fair.

Ah, but look how that guy still captured that epic wind-swept look. There's hope yet

Biggins

I'm already grey and no, won't bother dying it.
I am what I am, thats the way it is.

Crazy cat lady is a good look

galwayrush

I'll never forget my first grey pubic hair, i woke up screaming when my wife plucked it.:o

Princess Peach

I would be worried. Thought I found the odd one a few times but I think they were just very pale blonde.

I also was only informed recently that blonde people actually go grey. Kind of an odd thing to happen to light hair.

KittyeeTrix

I'm 37 now and started to go grey when I was 17:(
I've been colouring it since as I was just way too young to be grey at that age!

Seems I follow after my Dad who was fully grey by age 30

chopperbyrne

Way too late to worry about that now.

At least baldness doesn't run in my family.

offaly1

Started going grey bout 9yrs ago at the ripe old age of20ish:(. Dying it at the moment.....I'm a girl and can't bring myself to let it grow out!!:o

2 Miles From Narnia

I'll dye the beejesus out of my head when it starts going grey! I take the "I am what I am" approach with a lot of other things (fake tan or teeth whitening for example) but not my hair. It would be fine if it all turned grey overnight, but I wouldn't have the patience to let it change gradually over years.

I do like grey hair on men though, I think it looks distinguished. (And yes, I am sadly aware of my own double standards on this topic)

Tar.Aldarion

not really, I'll look lovely.

Already going grey at the sides, doesn't bother me at all. Noticed a mate of mine has started to dye his...let the slagging commence!

BrokenArrows

I'm 26 male. Got greys scattered over my head. Doesn't bother me. Going bald however would annoy me.

headmaster

Going that way myself, love it, hope the whole lot goes that way as well

My name is URL

I've been steadily turning grey for a year or so now. Starting to thin out a bit too.. the number of hairs left in the shower seems to increase each day. Fcuk it though, if you don't laugh you'll cry.

*weeps sorrowfully*

Karona

I'm going grey and I'm only 24. Havent dyed my hair in over 2 years but when I was younger I had it bleached and dyed every colour under the sun, so I'm gonna blame it on that.

Had a big straggly grey hair that i was intent on not plucking out but i couldnt take it anymore and plucked it. I was even getting a few grey hairs in my eyebrows at one stage.

cassid

i had a baby who spent 16 weeks in intensive care. Parts of my hair turned white from the stress, when it happened I could not have cared less, had more important issues going on. When the baby was ok, I just got my old friend l'oreal and I am a natural blonde again;)

dogtoffee

I have started to go grey in the last few months, it does not bother me at all.

orchidsrpretty

Im in my mid 20s and have being going grey for years. I almost have a full head of grey hair which I dye every two to three weeks. Such a pain in the bum but I am waaaaay too young to have gray hair:(

I think this is true, I bet many keep it secret and think they are freaks -its normal!

I saw a woman who looked in her early 30's the other day going grey and thought she looked great. I thought it was good she didn't sucummb to fashion/society pressures (I also think it is sad to see some women stumbling around in high heels). What I think looks riduculous is auld ones with 100% jet black hair which is blatantly dyed.

Yer man Bill Cullen off the apprentice looks like he dyes the middle bit jet black and leaves the sides grey so it looks undyed. Maybe it is not dyed but I think it looks worse than if he was greying normally.

There is no real "grey hair", some will say it is white, some say it is clear as it has no pigments, so you would not really notice it as much on blonde people.

patrickbrophy18

I'd be more concerned about loosing my hair than going grey. If you go grey, there is always hair dye which can mask the process. If you loose your hair through male (or more rarely female) pattern baldness, it won't ever grow back (certainly not naturally anyway).

Oh_Noes

It won't bother me at all. My dad's genetics say I should be going grey in about 3-4 years, my hairline is very slowly receding but I don't think I'll be bald for a good ten years at least.

I couldn't care less about either of them, I'm not sure which is more stupid looking, men who dye their hair or men who shave it smooth to hide their baldness. Either way it's always blindly obvious when guys do this and it seems a bit vain and creepy for men who should have a bit more maturity by their age than to worry about such silly things.

I started loosing my hair at 19 so going grey wouldn't be so bad. I know 2 brothers(twins) who have about 10-15 strands of grey hair they are only 11 years of age :eek: its very noticeable because of the type of hair they have, their Chinese.

Grey no, bald yes.

More worried about that was well, it runs in the family but it hasn't hit me yet. Would rather go completely grey than bald. Jebus... the thoughts of going bald.....:(

You think that is natural?


I'd say I'm probably totally grey now..

If I could get all the colour out overnight I wouldn't mind being grey..

It's the look of horrible grey roots that I couldn't deal with, so I'll keep dying it.
