What's the average age of having gray hair? Do you have one?

I think my grey hair started in my 30s - it's pretty grey now, but I dye it. I'm not vain about many things, but I hate having grey hair as it makes my skin look faded and sick.

I have some gray but I'm over 50 so it's no big deal. When you start going gray is genetic but, in general, people start seeing gray hairs in their 40's & 50's. My husband's beard turned gray in his 30's but he didn't start getting gray hair on his head until he was in his 40's.

I have many gray hairs and I am 37 , i started getting them at about 20 years old. My family grays early , but live for a very long time.

Well, I understand that My Grandfather had all gray hair by age seventeen but that is not the norm.... When I met my Husband he was 24 and had some gray hairs already then! My Dad has had some gray hair with his black for as long as I can remember... Average age???????????? I have no idea ~Heavens~

I dont think there is an average age for grey hair. I think different life experiences and situations can trigger this and some people are just naturally greyer younger. My friend had grey hair since she was in her early 20s and there were strips of it that were very prominent.. I personally have a band of grey hair in the front so i just part my hair over a bit and it cant be seen. There is none anywhere else. My hubby started turning grey in his 30s as are many of my other friends. I know I always beleived when i was younger that it was a sign of aging and only older people got grey hair. NOt so at all.

I have a friend who's 19 and he already has grey hair! I guess it doesn't have to do with your age, maybe it's genetic. Besides, I find it very sexy, especially on men.

Hello there! I believe that the average age for having noticeable gray hair is on the fourties. Thirty is still a young age to have a large amount of gray hair. Usually, though, you will notice a lot of them in a 40 year old, 42, 45... However, it depends on the origin of the person. Some will have a stronger hair, that will take a long time to get gray. Others, though, will have it really soon, like at 30. I am way young to have gray hair. I'm 17. Though I have seen people at my age with one or two gray hair in the head. I don't think they will start growing on you right now. It will be like one here, one there... Then it will start growing more oftenly. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

i think its hereditary. my wife is same age as i am but she has a lot og grey hair already. he got it from her mom. her mom has spanish blood and her great great grandmom has grey hair at an early age. her mom too. so now she is 36 and has grey hair. i dont have any grey hair, but my hair is slowly vanishing that is what runs in my family har har har

I have gray hair when I was 32 and I was really horrified!I was really surprised because it never runs in our family having gray hair in such a young age. My mother got her gray hair when she was 50 years old and now she's 63, my father has gray hair when he was over 60 years old. That's why I was shocked when i saw my precious hair with visible silver hair. At first I panicked and researched the net what causes gray hair to reveal at such a young age, I read a medical article that one of the causes is lacked of zinc, so now I tried eating foods rich in zinc, then if we worry or think too much. I try to minimize the worrying portion, but sometimes it is unavoidable especially if you are 35 and still single.lol!

Yes i have grey hair.I started having them at the age of 25.Now i have a lot of them.I use henna to dye my hair and it also acts as a conditioner. I think on an average people start having grey hair in their thirties.

I don't know about average age, but I starting seeing the occasional gray hair when I was about 25. My mom says she started noticing gray hairs when she was 27. One of my best friends in college had a few when she was 20. I once heard that pulling them out only makes more grow, but I have no idea if that's true. I don't really see how it could be, but I've always remembered that.

I think I found my first grey hair when I was about 29, but I didn't get many more until I was about 40. Then they increased dramatically. I don't mind though - they're all part of me and I'm quite happy going grey.

I had one gray hair since i was 5 years old. I never found out why. Anyways now that I am in my 30s I have seen most of my family member including me have grown a couple of grey hairs I think the average person start having gray hair in their 30's

I found my first "silver" hair at age 25, same as my mom :) I promptly pulled it out, of course.....but then they began to multiply. I'm in my mid-forties now, and its slowed down a bit; It's only a matter of time before the process kicks into over-drive My guess? It's probably a combination of stress and genetics

I am in my mid fifties, and I have lots of gray hair. My daughter started getting them in her twenties, and she has a few. My grandfather on my mother's side was completely white haired by thirty. I do not think there is an average age, but it varies with diet, health, and stress among other things.

I've got quite a few gray hairs. They don't bother me that much though. I do color my hair from time to time. Not because of the gray, just because I don't like my natural mousey color. Gray hairs aren't just for older people you know. I once had a classmate that started going gray in high school. By the time she was in her late 20s her hair was completely silver.

Hey wrangel! I wouldn't worry about it! I don't think I really started having grey hair until I was in my forties! I was pretty lucky! I had never even dyed my hair until then! Not even once! When they really started coming out and I wasn't about to pull them all out I decided it was time to start dying! So don't worry about it so much! People can have grey hair at any age! It varies from person to person!

Hello, I had 1 gray hair and I pulled it out then I ended up with 2 more in it's place.Then I found anothe gray hair and pulled it out and also 2 more grew in its place so now I do not pull out any gray hair I see. It seems like the more it gets pulled out the more gray hair will grow. I am 44. My b/f is 30 and he has a few more gray hairs than me but he has less than 10 and I have 5.He has black hair and I have dark brown,when I see one of his gray hairs I hide it in the rest of his hair and he does the same for me too.My grand mother didn't start going gray until she was in her 60's. I have a secret to hide gray hairs, a little at least. If you have dark hair use dark brown mascara to cover it up.

i have grey hair since i was 16 years old when i student i have many grey hair but i don't care but when i graduated from school my grey hair become a less. i think my grey hair come when i school many lesson so i must thing hard about my lesson thats make my hair grey.

I found my first gray hair when I was 31. I've been coloring my hair ever since. (I am now 53). So, I do not know how gray I actually am now. However, just from seeing my roots between colorings, I think I have a LOT of gray now. My father didn't have hair at all, so I guess gray hair is not so bad..... :)
