Can I ask that here?
If you have any grey hair that is!

Mid-late 40s. I swear it was child related.

On my 23rd birthday. Spotted 2 of the buggers in the mirror at work.

Mid 20's. I'm 38 now and it's growing through salt and pepper coloured.

I'm at an awkward stage of wanting to quit dying my hair but it's not quite 100% grey yet. Another 5 years probably and I'll quit colouring it.

My mum went grey around a similar age as did my grampa. It's just my genes unfortunately.

PotatoesPastaAndBread · 27/06/2018 19:39

Dyed it from mid-20's to 50-ish. Now completely silver at 65 and love it!

bandito · 27/06/2018 19:48

About 23. Have been colouring it for about 20 years going lighter and lighter as I am now pretty much completely grey. Occasionally flirt with growing it out but always crack and colour again about 12 weeks in.
