Going grey! :(

[stephec]

I prefer to say that my hair is dark brown with silver highlights.

There's a double standard though. Older women who don't dye their grey hair - let herself go.
Older man who does dye his grey hair - silly old fool.

It's funny that you should say that. I was told 'you would be so pretty if you dyed your hair'. I told her that I was pretty and that my hair was fabulous. She huffed and said 'maybe pretty on the inside eh?' (what a gift ) to which I replied 'Unlike you'


See, white hair.

Never!, what so it started going grey prior to that? Were you really blond to start with,

Mines blond/mousey and greying above the ears now, the hairdresser kindly cuts those bits out.

I crashed off a horse, at about 30mph and broke my skull a bit. They plated it and my hair grew back white at the site. When they removed the plate, a few months later, the whole lot grew back white. I quite like it, especially if there is a X-men film out as it's kind of cool then

It didn't go grey over a long time, rather more abruptly.
I was picked on at school for it but the lack of hair pigmentation was made up for by a sudden growth spurt in my sarcasm gene.

I just accept that things change as you grow older and it doesn't bother me at all. Age is just a number and so long as my health and mind are still going, all is well.

66 now still a full head of white hair. Started going grey in my early 20s @Biker Joe did you intentionally spell grey two different ways?

I've angs'ted over this subject previously

The rest of my heid has caught up now. Soon I'll be able to dye it purple and run my stick along the railings......

what’s the scientific reason one goes grey haired?
Also do you think science will be able to produce a pill to stop this??

I once posted a message in the politics and current affairs forum. I am now grey.

[QUOTE 5272991, member: 9609"]apparently I have a bald patch but don't think its grey, I would take a look but mirrors are far too depressing, there's always this stupid looking old fecker stairing back at me.[/QUOTE]

I know this is light hearted but that’s “the problem” isn’t it? The way we see old people. These days when I look at aging faces I look for the child they were. It’s usually still there, it’s just shortening telomeres hiding it.

Seriously????
At 71 my pubes and eyebrows are still brown.
Chest......more grey than brown.
Head......still have a full head of hair which went grey many years ago.
Fortunately young women find my grey hair irresistable.
(I made that last sentence up )

But the brown does nowt for them?

Grey?

Ice blonde, if you don't mind.

my barbers say 'Artic Blonde' which I quite like, ive got blonde hair with artic blonde flecks and a ginger beard with full on grey streaks under my mouth.

id need a whole host of dyes to put this lot right.

I think black would probably cover it
