I had a few grey hairs when I got married, I was 6wks. Shy of 21. They were in a small area and didn't show unless I parted my hair there. Then in 1997, I had a friend who was a stylist, color my hair reddish brown. By then there were grey strands though out and those few were now about a dime sized spot. When I turned 50,my DM said I probably didn't need to dye my hair b/c women in their 50's had grey hair and wore it natural. I told her that if I didn't have any more than she did, I wouldn't bother. She's now 77 and I have more in a tiny spot than she has on her whole head. I take after my dad, his hair was snow white when he passed away. My hair stylist told me 5 years ago that my complexion was too pale for grey hair and that I was 50%grey on top. And then I'd have to live with the skunk look while the dye grew out. I would look at least 10years older than I am-I DON'T THINK SO!!!
