NWR: What age did you start noticing grey hair or wrinkles?

Nicoletta, on December 18, 2014 at 10:59 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 53

I am 31 years old and this was the first year I got my two grey hairs. One a few months ago and one when I was at my hair dresser. I felt really weird about it, but she said that she has some women who come in who are my age who are completely grey! Yet you would never know it since they color their hair. I don't have any wrinkles yet, my mom is 51 and does not have very many.

When did you see your first wrinkles, your first grey hair?

    @Nicoletta Girl, you are LUCKY. I started getting grey hairs when I was in 7th grade (so, like 12 years old?) and had to start coloring my hair when I was 13. My mom would have been completely grey in her 20s if she didn't color her hair and she finally gave up a few years ago. If I ever stopped I would definitely have salt n' pepper hair!

    I've been lucky so far and have only ever found 2 or 3 grey hairs, but first saw them when I was 29 I believe. - Sorry correction...although there haven't been many, I am skipping right over grey and straight into SNOW WHITE!

    I have no idea if I have gray hairs. I am very high maintenance about my hair. Wrinkles.... ugh. I started getting them bad mid-20s. I've been looking into Botox, etc but FH is dead set against it. I will win that argument.

    FH started going gray in HS and was almost completely gray in his early 30s. Between the already 10-year age difference and his gray hair, people routinely think he's my father. Smiley atonished

    I have not found any grey hairs yet (knock on wood) and I don't color my hair, but I have noticed that my skin isn't as taut as it used to be. No wrinkles yet, per se, but I'm definitely becoming very conscious of it...I was a smoker for about 14 years so I'm sure that totally screwed up my skin :-/

    I found one strand just after I turned 25....and it stayed that way until I turned 30, now I see a lot more and finding myself getting my hair done A LOT more often...I judge my colorings not on weeks but when I see the gray (and I'm totally due to get it done next week!)

    No gray hairs yet. I've noticed the beginning of laugh lines, but no crows feet or brow lines. I moisturize and use (expensive *groan*) wrinkle cream every night and an SPF always. *fingers crossed*

    I'm 26

    I haven't found any grey hairs as of yet (knock on wood) but with the crap I have been through I should have a lot. I am only 23 though so fingers crossed they hold off for a while. My mom had them at 18.

    I have red hair. In summer, it gets lighter. I would say it started a couple years ago. Because my hair gets lighter, it was more, is that blondish red or grey white? It was a very small amount so hard to tell. I am 43 now. In the last 6 months, I would say it is noticeable around the temples. Enough so that you can say it's grey and not blonde.

    WWKatie, I'm like you! I started getting grey hairs when I was like 12. But I have light hair so grey blended in. I started coloring my hair in my early 20's. My skin is a different story. I am 40 now and luckily I remain wrinkle free. Everyone that asks my age is surprised when I say I am 40. I think its a combination of good genes and the fact that I wear minimal make up and use sunblock (I burn badly if I don't sunblock up before being outside for any extended amount of time).

    I started getting grey hair when I was 14. I guess this year I started noticing some wrinkles under my eyes, so 27.

    No greys yet. I have some looser skin on my eyelids (weird..I notice it when I put on eye-shadow). I can see where I'll have big wrinkles on my forehead, but they aren't wrinkles YET. after my night moisturizer runs out, I'll start buying night wrinkle cream Smiley sad

    Oh and I'm 29

    I'm 28 and haven't found any grey hairs yet (knock on wood). Starting to get wrinkles near my brow though. I guess I frown a lot? Haha

    I saw my first grey hair at 26. MY F.H. spotted it & quickly pulled it out! I yelled at him!!! I have spotted a few more, but it's not a big deal. I have accepted it's a part of life, & the few fine lines I have seen tooo. I'm highly allergic to hair dye & so I wont be worried about covering them up at all!

    I have one or two here or there, I'm 25. My birth father, who I get my red hair from, has very little grey and he's in his 50's so I'm optimistic. My husband is 30 and his grey hairs have tripled in this past year Smiley sad
