    Somewhere in my 20s. I am 49 now and still have a sprinkling of grey and white hair, but mostly black. Of course, the hockey game is giving me a few more grey hairs.

    Apparently there's a grey hair in my beard. But I call shenanigans.

    18. I've got the early-graying genes from both of my parents. Thank goodness for home hair dye!

    Birth. People tell me I have "blonde highlights", but blonde hair has color whereas mine is clear.

    I was 19. I remember it very well. I cried. Seriously cried. Which makes me laugh now. Oh, 19 year old me, it will be ok. *pat pat*

    I was 24 (long time ago!!!). I am almost platinum now; I just add some light blonde high lights twice a year for extra effects.

    Edited to add: I never covered my gray/silver hair.

    At 31 years old I don't have any grey hairs yet, but if my dad and his brothers are anything to go by I should expect to start seeing some grey in my beard in a couple of years or so from now.

    probably around 28 - when other people casually mentioned it

    this year at 31 is when i started seeing them myself - like up around the crown area and stuff.

    but i'm a fan of tinsel at christmas time and stuff - and to me they kinda shimmer against my naturally dark brown/black hair - so i just think of them as sparklers haha

    **whatever works right?**

    18. Not sure if it was hormonal or not because I was pregnant. Now I have tons of silvery strands 13 years later. Sometimes I worry about them sometimes I love them.
