If you have grey hair & over 40, do you want to color it or let the grey stay, cuz it’s too much to color & you probably can’t handle it?

I am 27 and have some grey hair, enough that it's noticeable at a reasonable distance... I live with it, doesn't bother me.

Mine's starting to go a little grey. Doesn't bother me, I think grey hair is cool anyway.

I'm 17 and I already have grey hairs. It's among the very least of my problems or concerns.

I received my first one around that age... Now, I have a few dozen all over. But I keep it short, so hard to notice. When it's long, it's really noticeable.

I've been gray for a long time now, and I'm under 40.

I've thought about dyeing before, but not because I'm self-conscious or anything, I just think it would be fun to have green hair or something like that.

I am in my fifties and have long hair with quite a few grey bits. Colouring it would either be expensive or involve a lot of faffing about if I did it myself and I have far better things to do with my money and time. I prefer to leave it looking natural anyway.

I've going slowly grey for approx. 18 years since I was 16. I did dye my hair a number of times in my late teens and early 20's, but that was always either pillarbox red, blue, or green. Or to cover one of those colours up.

I have only briefly thought about hiding my grey hair. It seems like way too much hassle, and I don't really care.

My hair has only just started greying, though I'm getting balder by the day, but most of my beard went grey a long time ago (all the bits that used to grow red, mostly.) I quite often get told that shaving it off would "take years off" me, but I really don't care enough to change anything.

I have a lot of grey hair since I was like 22. I inherited this from my father whom I saw just twice in my life, but when I saw him, I noticed his hair, though thick, was almost totally white.

Wow, started going grey at 17. I slowly went grey in my 30s, my mom had alot of grey hair in her late 40s, she dyed it, she owned a preschool, she told me I gave her grey hair. I sooooo miss her.

I have a few grey hairs but I'm 35. I saw commercials a while back for a shampoo that helps with greying over time called Control GX

I've only noticed white in my beard over the past year or two. There's just a few hairs growing on my chin.

Same. The Red / Auburn hairs in my beard have gone grey first.
