At 35 I find the occasional grey hair now and then. At least I still have hair.

I'm 36 and I have been getting the random grey hair for years. The grey hairs are gaining ground though :(

You know what makes me feel old. We have an au-pair in the house and when I explain to her what Galaga is and then I realize she wasn't born when I was playing games on those machines.

It depends on what kind of cheese.  It COULD have been born when Galaga was still in the arcades.  But I didn't think cheese really played games.

Im 35, I've had a few gray hairs for about 10 years.  But old age is always 10 years older than I am.

I'm 34 and have had slowly encroaching white hair for 10 years.  Started at the temples and has been going back and up ever since.  (safe here because we're dorks reference: Reed Richards) (hbo reference: Pauly Walnuts)

The weird thing (at first anyway, now I'm used to it) the brown hair was curly.  The white hair that I assume is growing out of the same folicles is straight.

All quite mysterious.

I'm gonna be an awesome Santa as soon as the beard stops being red, brown, and blonde.

Please resume your discussion of cheesecake.  Sorry to have interrupted :)

I shave every monday.  As I've got blonde hair, I don't see grey.  I'll go bald before I go gray.  But so far it's haning in there. 

being blonde is nice because for the most part our facial hair doesn't grow very fast.  I love shaving once a week.

I'm 39, and got quite a few grey ones.

But I'm not worried....

After a week, I've got pretty much a full beard.

Yeah my hair started getting lazy as it didn't want to travel to the top as much. So it's starting to come out the ears. I bit the bullet a few months ago and shaved the dome. I wouldn't have minded gray hair but I refuse to walk around with a hair horseshoe. I'm only 31. Say cheese  :P

Same here, which is why I stopped trying and grew the beard.  My skin doesn't deal well with daily shaving.

Well you know, being the lazy slacker that I am, I'd love to quit shaving and just grow a beard, but it starts to drive me crazy after about two weeks, by the time I've had it for a month I can't take it any more and shave it off.

I also turn 41 in march.

I have a scattering of gray hairs, but no bald spots, and only a slight receding at the temples.

You know what, I don't care.

I can't do anything about my age.  I could do something about the hair, but I'd rather spend the money on other things.  If it starts to really fall out, I'll just shave my head.

My health I do care about so I am working out three or four times a week.  I have a Karate class once a week plus practice at home three or four days a week.

I turn 30 in a few days, no greys yet, I seem to have inherited a lot from my dad so if my hair goes like his I will still have a full head of hair with no greys at 55
