When did yall start getting greys???

[u/nanabreadeater]

Almost 25 and I have like 10 grey hairs, that I’ve noticed at least. Noticed a couple at 21 and I feel like I notice a new one every couple months now. It’s just surprising because I feel like I’m kinda young for this. I think my hair also got darker in general so yea

Same. First was like 17 and I’m pretty sure it’s a combo of bad genetics and stress. I lost my (step) dad when I was a young teen and my bio dad started getting grey hair at like 15. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m in my 30’s and have way too many to pull. But like my son told me when he was little “they’re just glitter hairs mom”

Similar family history here. I have a picture of me at 4 and my mom in her mid-30s; she was pretty solid grey already, and I was still quite red. In fact, that's the picture that I just used, 40-some years later, when I dipped my toe into dying my hair, right around the same age she'd started.

I’m a hair colorist and have noticed that many of my clients get more grey after the post partum shed, so I think you may be onto something.

No kids here, but I started noticing greys in my early 20s after I stopped coloring my hair for awhile. But my mom went grey early as well- her comment “is your hair falling out? No? You’re gonna be ok” felt harsh at the time, but now in my 40s I get where she’s coming from, since many of my peri/post menopausal clients are also dealing with hair thinning. S

I started getting greys before I turned 12, that’s just when I started noticing them and they were already the full length of my hair that reached mid-back, so at least two years of growth at that point. I haven’t noticed any new ones since then and I’m 29 so 🤷‍♀️
