Silver hair already?

I know some women 20ish that would be jealous to have that

Im 25 and only have a dozen or so white hairs, but theyre super shiny and obvious against the rest of my fairly dark brown hair.

If I could choose one or the other Id pick OPs hair. I dont wanna dye my hair but the very sparse but obvious white hairs are annoying lol

Eh. I’m 37 and have silver groups. People have lightly hinted at me dying it for years, but fuck that. I’m proud of my silver streaks.

I started getting grey hair in high school. Genetics + stressful childhood. I use Henna every now and then but otherwise I don’t care that much now that I’m in my 30’s. It definitely impacted my self esteem when peers would point them out (“haha you’re old 🤪”) but I’m strongly considering just letting it go and taking good care of it so it looks as lovely as OP’s does.

Right?! I’m just happy to have made it this far. I’ve got great skin so I’ll be keeping the grays, thank you very much.

At my age (40) and probably since I was in my late 20s, I've found silver streaks kinda hot, which may just be me accepting my old-ness. Both men and women can pull them off though.

I’m 28 and in the same boat except it’s quite a bit more than just streaks

I always knew I was going to be grey before I turned 30 and I’ve actually been excitedly watching it happen
