I am 27, I had planned on turning 23 on my next birthday, as I am young looking enough to pass for it.

But, I just started getting grey hair. Spotted the first ones today, I already have about 20 of them.

Some guy I went to University with had the beginnings of grey hairs and he was only 20!
so I fail to see how such a small issues could interupt your otherwise flawless plan

Some grey isn't so bad, it just cuts down on how often you're carded.

My 20th year reunion was two years ago, and over half of the guys present were over half way to "cue ball" status.

Don't listen to anyone here, it's obvious your life is now over. If I was you I would be off to the old peoples store to buy some of those undies with the flap at the front.

*sigh*

I started greying in high school.. I'm counting on being totally grey by the time I'm 30.. I'm 28, now, and darned close..

Fortunately, my wife likes it

Says I look distinquished

some of us here wish they have "HAIR" even if its gray

Trenchbroom · « **Reply #11 on:** January 24, 2005, 09:35:53 am »

My wife's family: all men are cue balls. But they are also all fit and trim and live to be 80.

My family: heart disease and cancer run rampant. BUT WE HAVE OUR HAIR DANGIT! Naturally colored I might add.

Moral: I'm 32 and no gray whatsoever. And at age 40 I'll make a great looking corpse.

Hope the kids take after mommy...

Yeah, sure and size doesn't matter either

On a related note, my wife is really stressed about turning grey at 35 (I only have a few at 32)... She resents the comment that: You are getting more distinguished, like a silverback gorilla.

I usually have to run after saying that...

My dad was grey in high school, so I know it's no big deal... as they say, it doesn't matter if there's snow in the chimney, only that there's a fire in the boiler...

wait a minute, didnt your avatar used to look vaguely like phil collins? in which case, you aint even got no hair!

Sephroth57 · « **Reply #14 on:** January 24, 2005, 10:52:15 am »

no see, ive figured out that paige really is phil collins. the reason he changes into a cat sometimes is he was infected with lycanthropy when he opened up a cursed arcade machine, a werecat bit him...

LOL, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I'm 26, turn 27 in May, and I have grey hair on the sides... more than I care to count. It doesn't bother me too much, as long as I don't start looking like that guy from the Sopranos.

DaveMMR · « **Reply #21 on:** January 24, 2005, 05:36:38 pm »

I've had gray hair since I was 16! But I have lots of hair with no bald spots so count your blessings. Grecian is cheaper and more effective than Rogain.

Don't be afraid to dye your hair. Chicks dig it.

Ever see the old Ronco 'spray on hair' infomercials? Hilarious! I'd tatto a space invader on my head before I used spray on hair...do chicks dig that??

You know what's crazy.. that companies send more money to developing a baldness cure then they spend trying to cure man cancer.

more money in the hair then in curing cancer , now treating cancer , lots of money in that , why cure a somthing , they only pay for that once , but make them keep comming back for more and more $$$ treatemnts , thats where the $ is.

Don't worry, I started to get grey hair really young. I'm 19 now and it's really starting to kick in.
