found my first gray hair at 25 (American, highlights, light, thin)

[Chowhound]

I'm 45 and have very very few grey hairs on my head, I have pretty long dark hair so they'd stick out pretty obviously.

I have a goatee and all bets are off on that mother... I got pretty salty with that at 35 or so....... I just trimmed it really low last night to help hide some of those suckers....

it's probably hereditary. another gift besides a history of heart disease & cancer from the ole' gene pool.

Check your multivitamins to see if they contain PABA...... I know mine doesn't.

From the LIVESTRONG article about PABA:

Take 25 to 50 mg of para-aminobenzoic acid, also called PABA, daily. According to Huntington College of Health Sciences, your natural hair color usually restores once you correct nutritional deficiencies, particularly PABA deficiencies.

You'll start noticing gray pubic hairs too, then gray chest hairs after that. Definitely a good excuse for manscaping.

Grow up. There will be more. The only thing that prevent this is baldness or death.

Don't people have other things to worry about?

In my eyes, you're lucky! I had a friend who had salt-n-pepper hair in his late 20s. I thought it was so cool. I always hoped my hair would turn grey before it fell out. Failed on that one too. (White sidewalls, pink top!)

Honestly, you could just shave your head. No hair=no grey.

I was also going to say that I like gray hair on women but I didn't want to be jumped on.

My mustache may be gray but at least I'm not bald.
