Jennifer Lopez went gray at 23, how about you?

I just found this article while searching about gray hair stuff, because just a few minutes I found a silver hair on my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I'm 23!! =( I of course think it looks bad, but I'm more worried that I have a medical problem or something. But I can't afford to go to the doctors for a stupid single gray hair! I just hope I don't continuing graying, or worse, that my hair starts falling out more than it already is. Gaaahhh, this sucks. But it's kinda comforting to know Jennifer Lopez actually went gray at my age. At least I'm not the only one!... Not that I'm going gray just yet. I've only got 1 strand of it. Although I did find some hair that has lightened a lot. I'm being dramatic aren't I? :(

My Mom had dark brown salt and pepper, mostly pepper, when she died at age 75. My dad was gray by the time he was 50. I will be 70 next birthday and my hair had its first gray when I was about 45 or 50 and is still only gray at the temples and a scattering on top. It is very long and I wear it up so it still looks completely brown.
I didn't realize how many women were graying at an early age. The convenience of coloring! :)

I found my first grey hair at 21. They continued to grow sporadically until I turned 30. My little irritation turned into a plague of epic proportions!!!! I am now 38 and no joke-every 30 days I must get my roots done (as I have naturally dark hair)- or as my girlfriends say -Im "shimmery" for all
the wrong reasons ( not only is my hair turning white -but also-silver) Sorry- I don't need "bling" on my head!!!! Its a hassle-but-at least I have a full head of hair-it can always be worse-I say!!

I'm 42 and my hair is pretty well covered with greys. I don't color it like I used too, but when I do color it I have to go several shades darker in order to cover up the grey. It looks un-natural or I look like one of the Adams Family...ha ha ha...

I've never noticed a gray and I'm 23. Let's hope it stays that way. I love my natural hair color and do not wish to dye it.

apparently there is a lack of a certain hormone that is the cause.

Not sure either. I've been coloring and highlighting since college and I don't even know if I have any gray today at 41. Ahh... the joys of modern hair care. I remember when 40 was old. Now nobody has to know but your stylist and she won't tell!!

I'm not sure that stress is entirely to blame for more women going grey earlier in life. It may be partly because the country is more Asian and Latino than 20 years ago and therefore has more people with dark hair in which greys are more noticable. IDK.

Isarted getting grey after the age of54

My mom found my first grey hair at 13 yr old. It was no big deal because my Dad was grey at the temples at 17. I do color my hair only when my husband at 64 says it makes me look old. I have a young face so I would like to let it go. I will be 60 in june.When I do finally let it go all silver people will be mors shocked to see the real color of my hair.LOL Silver or grey hair makes you look mature not old.

I started going gray at 17. It started with a skunk stripe down my part which sorta looked pretty cool for a while. I finally gave in and started getting highlights when I was about 29 and this year I started full coloring. It's been fun to play with my hair color. What else are you going to do?

My mother told me I had 3 gray hairs when I was about 3 years old, so I've had strands throughout my life. When I had children, the gray became more noticeable as time has passed. Am I ready to go completely gray at 46? Not yet. I do have a lovely skunk streak on the right side of my scalp on top which turns a lighter shade when I color. I've been coloring my hair since I was 19 years old, so...I think I've been doing maintenance for gray coverage for at least the last 3 years..and its about every 3-4 weeks religiously!

I have not found one yet. I'm 22. I'm glad! I highlight my hair, but I would still find gray (if I had it). I'm hoping thta my hair is naturally light enough to disguise gray for a while. I will be sad when I have to start coloring my whole head!

I began graying at age 15 and had a gray streak on the right side temple by the time I was 24. It runs in my mom's family. I began coloring my hair at 24 and haven't stopped yet at 43. Now I'm really gray if I don't color. One cool thing I learned from coloring my hair is that I should not have been born a brunette. I'm a much nicer looking lady when I'm a ginger.

I just turned 49, I have medium blond hair, and no gray yet. My Mom was dark brunette, and didn't get any gray til she was in her sixties. My brother is 7 years older than I am, but he is mostly bald, he started getting gray in his beard by age 50. My hair seems to be getting darker as I get older, so I have been lightening it.

my hair is very porous, and will pick up color from minerals in the water. i combat that with a 1/2 & 1/2 mixture of that purple shampoo (any brand) and regular shampoo. If i use all purple my hair takes on a lavender tint...No! i also use a product that Pantene took off the market that is a conditioner especially for white hair. I found some on ebay and amazon, so bought enough to last for years. hopefully someone will decide to tap into this market before it runs out!

found my first at 16, and there were a few. almost completely gray by early 30's, and it is beautiful. I get so many complements (picture Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada) and people actually ask me how i color it...LOL

I found my first gray at 18. I am in my 30s now and while i still only have a handful of them along my part, they are thick and color resistant, which is a total pain.

Started at 16 and by 21 I was "salt and pepper." I would be completely grey now (52).

I had gray hair when I was 14 yrs old! I remember, because it was the first time my mom ever took me to get my hair highlighted, and the stylist pointed them out! I'm 27 now, and I would say I'm about 30% gray :-( I keep getting more and more. My friends just think that I love to try out different hair colors! (nope! just constantly staying on top of covering the gray!)
