I've had grey hairs since I was like 18. Don't worry about it

[–] [email protected] 26 points 3 months ago

I noticed my first grey hair at 23, it doesn't mean anything.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I kind of feel like an asshole for complaining in my thirties then. ohnoes

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

Don't feel like an asshole, I'm just saying grey hairs don't necessarily mean you're getting old

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 months ago

I got a couple WHITE hairs around that age lmao. Not much since though.

Communism makes you go grey faster, it's well-known science. I had youthful locks of hair until I lost my house and got radicalized, now I've got grey everywhere. I believe in science they call this a "singular data point", which sounds about sciencey enough for me to know it's true.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

it's true, kras mazov personally sneaks into your room and bleaches your hair while you sleep

  1. One gray hair doesn’t mean anything. I got several in my 20s.

  2. Nevertheless, life is short. Spend your time wisely.

I'll trade my no hairs for your gray hairs ussr-cry

People with grey/white hair look dope as hell and you will too.

it's too late, you have to change your name to Old_Owl now

The best advice I can give you is to invest in a nice and thick parka because it gets real cold in High Hrothgar.

Jokes aside, I started getting gray hair in my mid-20s, and I'm starting to get them on my chest now in my mid-30s. My temples are almost completely gray, and I can see some gray strands starting to show up on the top of my head.

Honestly, I think it's a really great look. I fucking love my graying hair. What I don't love at all is that I have a balding crown like my dad. Genetics is a fuck.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That makes me feel better, thanks. I bet you look cool as hell

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

I hope I do! Check out Josh Sawyer, his hair is almost totally gray nowadays and he's a seriously good looking dude

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 months ago (2 children)

okay but have you thought that having some greys is actually kinda hot?

I haven't found any yet but I know the feeling, the first time I wasn't carded for alcohol a year ago cut me deeper than any knife ever could

I-was-saying

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

I wasn't carded at 21.000 with a babyface and a full head of hair. I could have been going to that store! I was so mad.

Enjoy the first of many signposts reminding you of your inexorable progress towards the grave

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

It do be like that. I just wish millennial poverty didn't mean I had such a late start doing anything in life. Still renting, just went back to finishing university, no savings and yet greys reminding me that time is short.

my hairline has started to gradually recede in the past few years and it's honestly not okay

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

I'm in my 20s.

I have grey hairs.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My family gets gray hairs from a genetic thing

I myself have a small shock of gray on the front of my hairline

Made me look like a scene kid back in high school

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's what I'm getting right now. A couple on my temples

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

Don't trip, dude. Grey hairs are cool.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago

Lol I'm not 30 and I have gray all over my hair too bad

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago

Got a couple greys and whites just a few months ago. I don't love the idea of losing all my colour this soon, cause it would take like three bottles of dye to do my massive hair. Everyone I've talked to says not to worry about it though & that going fully grey will take ages. Nothin I can really do about it anyway.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago (2 children)

if it helps, now you have no excuse not to dye your hair whatever cool colour you've ever wanted.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

Green it is

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Dye it grey. For the irony

If it's any consolation, grey hair looks wonderful on everybody I've seen it on. So you'll at least look good for the few years you have left /s (jk my friend has a grey streak at 27 you'll be fine comrade)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I have had the same 5 grey hairs since my 20s. Idk what's up

Just rub some dirt on it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

I've been graying since i was 20. Now at 34 it's mostly white and people dig it.

It's the hair loss that sucks lol
