It cracks me up when I want a lazy hair day and pull it back to tie it up and I resemble a skunk!!! (exaggerating a bit)

I was seriously going to get a few boxes before I left for Oz...OH had a field day with that!! Called me all the idiots going...It was just in case they didnt have that particular shade...men!!!

Found my first one at 16 (no joke) and have now got a patch down the middle of my parting. I am only mid twenties but will have to continue to colour it. (Only semi-permanent at the moment).

I have very dark hair-BIL is the same...he is six months older than me and is 3/4 grey.

It's a pain in the arse isn't it???

Glad i'm not alone though

Men, what are they like? They seem to think that we are nuts for doing certain things, but we have our reasons.
I trust that you have had no problems buying your shade then?

No coz i'm still in Bloody Wales!!

Yeah, it is one hell of a pain!!! Can see from your lovely pic that you are also a dark haired beauty.

Was always reluctant to do the pulling out thing because someone once told me that more come back!!

Oh sorry hun we are in the same boat. My OH is down in the dumps today as he is taking my cousin and his wife to Manchester airport. They are going to Brisbane for four weeks to activate their visas, (I have put a tracking device in his pocket ).
I keep telling myself, all good things come to those who wait, but on the other hand I keep asking, How long do we have to bl*%dy wait?

I was told the same thing, but thought I will give it a go. Don't have enough time now to many of the blighters! Will have to stick to the box method.

Started going grey at 24

I was 23!!!

I started to have a couple grey hairs in my 20s (actually they're white). Only a couple mind. Now at 41 I have a few more, but haven't really gained many between my 20s and 40s ~ I've got dark hair, so when one does pop up it tends to stick straight in the air, and is very noticeable. For that reason I do tweez the bugger out. And, no, they don't grow back in packs thankfully. But, I have no problem with my white hairs, as I quite like them.

You didn't give your age, but you do look quite young ~ 20ish, oops 30ish, just saw the age of your eldest??

Thats something to hope for xxx

I was young having Ben...but thanks for saying I look young...ish

Perhaps they will slow down....i've not got much spare time as it is!!!

Not one grey hair on my head until I had my daughter..... funny that....

Now I'm 42 I have quite a few but camoflage them with highlights. I pull out the "sticky up" blighters too.... Going lighter really helps to hide them and you don't need to do the roots so often. My hairdresser also said that as you get older (she's 23..GRRR) you should lighten up by one shade as your skin looks sallow otherwise. How lovely was it to be told that...

I found it much less of a problem with highlights.....it was when I had got fed up with spending £70 a time at the hairdressers and decided to go back to my original hair colour that I discovered all theses little bleeders!!

I wish blonde suited me ...it doesn't...I agree about the older/lighter part though....being dark isn't as forgiving. ...I always look tired ...bloody kids ( I have to blame some-one don't I??)

i noticed a few about a year ago and now i've got loads! and i'm only 28
you only see a few if my hairs down but if i put a hairband in you can see loads at the front!
do you remember the italian family in eastenders? i think i'm gonna end up looking like there mum with that great big white patch at the front
