Just that, really. How long did it take from the first grays to being fully gray?

48 and nothing they. Both my Gran and Mum went pure white so having had years of shit hair I am looking forward to my white era!

54 and dark steel with patchy whiter bits of grey. No one ever told me I would resemble a badger

First grey aged 17. Very dark brown hair. Gave up hair dye and let it go fully about 7 years ago. Just too lazy to bother with the hassle of having to constantly cover up roots.

Mid 40s. I’m 55 and starting to get more grey. Didn’t bother dying my hair last time as I felt it was too light to dye mid brown and lightening it is starting to damage my hair.

My Dm is in her 80s and isn't grey yet!

I was born with grey hair 😂 but I started to go grey around 22 ish. I’m 33 now and I do dye my hair but soon as it hits 4 weeks my roots are going white xx
