What is the average age to start spotting grey hairs?

it has got to the point where they is always one visible. I was doing a quick spot chekc once a week and until recently that was keeping it at bay.

I don't think anybody else has noticed, but I am definitely 'going grey' now. I saidto my hairdresser that i was going grey prematurely and he chuckled. I am too old to go grey prematurely.

I was 16. Pretty grey now (mid 40s).

Found my first at 36/37. Am now 38 and have a few so I colour my roots - but these are only a handful and not too noticeable. My Mum was the same; didn't go properly grey until her late 40s.

I'm quite up for going grey - it's one of my favourite colours.
