An old myth

Not a myth when I'm living proof.


When you started having children, you were going to start greying at that age regardless if you had them or not.

What about all those in this thread that started greying before children? Before the most stressful time of their lives, kids or no kids?

In college but I also have black hair so they're pretty noticeable. My dad had a full head of grey hair at 45 and I'm on a similar trajectory. Thankfully I don't have bald spots or a receding hairline though.

We talking head or pubes?

For both it was two days after I financed my third luxury car. I scheduled it so that I make a bi-monthly car payment every 5 days. That way I never forget.

Got my first one about two months before I turned 30. Was going through a ton of stress and things that I didn't even realize which were laying the groundwork for marital problems years before anything came to the surface.

Fast forward six years, and I am divorced (almost) and have probably a handful of gray hairs but my hairline has been in full retreat mode ever since.

I've added to the collection of white hair at a slow and steady pace since then and now in my late 30s my hair is probably still 99% black but the white hair is very noticeable due to the color difference.

Don't have to worry about grays when you start balding at 16

I'm 38 and basically platinum 'blond' at this point. Started with a clump in college and spread fairly quickly over the years. Only saving grace is that all the twenty somethings I meet are really jealous of my hair color.
