The very day that I turned 30, I found several grey hairs on my facial hair. Since most of them are stubble, I just pluck them out. I was very surprised to see that I was going grey so early in life, but I shouldn't be surprised since I had a receding hairline at 18; so i tend to age early.
I know that most people on here are women, but how old were you when you noticed grey hairs on your head or in other regions; and I'm not talking about one gray hair, but a few.
In my late twenties, a few gray hairs started showing up. By my mid thirties, I had enough to truly be noticeable and I started coloring my hair, which isn't necessarily a bad thing because I've had a lot of fun with many different colors, and am still having fun with that at age 52.
I am not ready to embrace the gray and my hair is about 75 percent gray...and 25 percent auburn, which is NOT an attractive color combination! So I'll keep coloring my hair till it's nearly all white - hopefully that will not be for awhile, but who knows?
I didn't notice any until about 40. I don't know about my facial hair since I don't have much and shave daily (I don't think facial hair looks good on me), but I have just a little at my temples. I'm vain, so I touch it up with Just for Men lol! But I'm not going gray at a fast pace.
I broke my leg when I was 30, and I suddenly got a gray streak on each side...the first time I washed my hair after my injury, these huge gray streaks showed up.
Had my 1st grey hair at 14. Didn't start in mass until I became 26. Now, I'm 33 and I got grey over most of my beard and nearly half of my hair. Except for the mustache, it doesn't bother me much. Accept it, live life to the fullest and practice being Santa Claus, jk.

Reason: need to clean up the entry
I saw my first ones last year when i was 66..still only have a few ,my mother was the same and didnt have a lot of grey until well into her 70s.. were all different..
I was in my 30's and my son noticed it before I did (aren't kids FUN?)
Anyway, I had already been coloring my hair for years so I just started using one that worked on grays better. I also like to have fun with hair color!
37 now, been noticing them in my facial hair and along temples since maybe four years ago.
Of all the things that suck about getting older, that's one I can't find much time to worry about.
