    I don't remember how old I was but I do know that it was at the exact moment I said "I do!".

    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.

    Mine started late 30s . I dyed it or highlighted for years until I got fed up so I grew it out about 4 years ago . Now no-one believes this is my actual real hair colour !!!

    Edited to say that my eyebrows never went grey and are still my original dark brown colour ... Wierd ??

    16.... but they were few and far between. I didn't start really noticing a pattern o SEVERAL grays until around 39. I'm 41 and still only a few dozen gray hairs at my temples.

    11 or 12. When I was in seventh grade, my friends used to pull them out of my head during chorus. No lie.

    21. I am 24 now...with a cluster of about 8 right on the top of my head. I am sure there is more, but I dye often.
