Okay so I never thought that there is such a myth that when you pluck a gray hair from your head, instead of getting rid of them, they will multiply. I got a good laugh on this myth but my old relatives didn't. They thought it was true. I told them about the myth buster and that this isn't true. What about you guys, did you think this myth was true before?

I think once you see one grey hair. More are going to come, no matter what you do.

yea i agree with PhillyDreamer. once u pick one or not another is going to grow in its place. the best way to deal with it is to die ur hair one shade lighter! thats what i do because i have dark brown hair/it looks black; so i die it a little lighter than it is and give myself blonde highlights so i wont have to die it as much...im not an expert but thats what works for me!

Dear Freymind Your comments are food for thoughts. But I think what you wrote is a grandmother folks tale. Most hair tonic will not work, believe me. But why bother? It's the grey hand that give us a wise look. Unfortunately, it cannot be said for ladies. They might look shabby if I am say so. For men, to be 'bald' is not big deal. It looks good and unique like 'Kojak' or 'Yu Bryner' That's my take for now. Any comments is much appreciated. Thanks.Love: Bro. Joe. GBU

When I was a child, i do believe on this. I might cry and hit whoever try to pluck the few grey hairs on my head. But now not anymore. In fact, i asked mom to pluck it.

yes, I think it is a myth I nothing happens when we pluck a white or grey hair but we should avoid it because of consequences like infections etc. http://regrow-hair.org/dont-pull-out-gray-hair/ not a referral link.
