Embrace the inevitable and age gracefully. Emmylou Harris (Country singer) went gray first, then completely white haired. I don't know at what age but her hair was quite long and IMHO, drop dead sexy. We all turn gray, then white eventually. Own it, embrace it. You'll be fine. Nothing wrong with being a silver fox.

I don't want to go make a coloration.
Other than dying, the only other thing you can do is highlight. Depending on the color of your hair, highlighting will help the gray blend in.

My hair is a dark ash blonde. Ash blonde are cool colors, and the overall tone of my hair is towards the gray side. So my gray blends in, and the highlights hide it perfectly. If your hair is dark You will probably need to go to a hairstylist who does color to have it done right to blend in the gray.

I've always thought Emmylou Harris' hair is gorgeous especially since it turned white. I used to have a friend who was tall, thin and extremely tanned. She wore her pure white hair in a close-cut pixie style. It was such a dramatic contrast but she could carry it off with aplomb!

Go blond on the rest of your hair, then when the white roots come in, they barely show. You can hardly see them apart from the blond. I only have to dye twice a year due to this....

You won't be "darkening", you'll be "lightening", lol.

If you insist on coloring your hair at the very least do it the very first time with a professional so you know what it is "supposed" to look like so when you try it at home you will have proof that you failed

I am a guy who dyed his hair for roughly one year. I wasn't really fooling anybody only myself. My eyebrows are dark still so I thought I could pass it off but my chest hairs are grey and so are some of my stubble hairs.

Now I accept it and work my look into the grey hairs...dress a little differently ***try to act more mature etc.

Sharpie.

Seriously, though, it's inevitable. You'll get more and more white hairs over time and you won't be able to keep up with it unless you dye it frequently.

Hair whitening related to diet, pollution, bleaching and stress can be slowed down with a balanced diet and a good hair care regimen. Use Coconut oil, before bed, massage coconut oil onto your hair and scalp.

Black sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum) and Wheatgrass juice (Thinopyrum intermedium)also helps to reduce early whitening.
