I got a few (4 or 5) when I was pregnant with my son at 30. Plucked them out and haven't had any more since then. I am 38.

Default As a teenager

Noticed a few at age 17-18; by 24-25 the gray was noticeable (such that strangers commented on it). From that time on until last year I colored my hair. Now at 64, I am totally white-haired, as was my father.

My dad's 65 and just has a few in his beard. His hair thinned up top, but none of it greyed.

33, but they've been very slow to take over, 16 yrs. later they're barely noticeable (the light brown hair helps).

32 and none yet. Due with my first baby this fall... I have a feeling the gray hairs will follow shortly thereafter.

14 or 15. It's actually really prominent at my temples and actually looks kinda neat so I was thinking about letting just that part of my hair grow out without dye . I'm 28 now.

My mother was completely salt and pepper before she was 30, her father was salt and pepper and mostly bald by 20... Gray hair at a young age runs in my family.

I'd say a couple of years ago and I'm 47 now. One weekend recently I didn't shave and man the gray was really showing. Oh well..

At what age did you notice your first grey hair/s?
26 and none yet.

Ironically, my twin, who is a minute younger than I am already has several. She has 3 kids though so that may be it right there.

I was 23 when I saw the first one. I'm 50 now and about 70% gray, but I color my hair. If it were a pretty gray, or salt and pepper, I wouldn't, but it's graying in an odd sort of way--gray on top and brown on the sides.
