Grey hairs
Last summer while we were sitting on my mother’s balcony, my sister looked at my head closely before shouting, “You’ve got a grey hair!” I was kind of annoyed, yet amused by this declaration as I never really noticed this before, nor did I care.
At least I thought I did not care about any grey hairs. Now it is almost one year later and I am starting to turn into a senior citizen! I am not kidding. What started as a few grey hairs here and there has now turned into nice grey streaks on the top of my head.
You know, a little like having highlights, only with bits of grey. It is so weird, because I am a blonde, and I always thought blondes didn’t get grey lol. Even though I am blonde, I’ve been dyeing my hair brown for years now.
That’s why I didn’t notice earlier. It’s only now that I have been growing it all out (not intentionally, I have just been lazy. Plus I have been swimming a lot, which ruins your dye anyway) that I see that all the new hair I’m creating is full of grey. I guess I should start dyeing it again.
Seriously though: WTF! I mean I am only 32, that’s way too fucking young to be going grey. Besides, men get grey right, not women? I think this is payback for all the fun I’ve been making of the guys I know who are starting to turn grey.
So am I the only one or are there more of you lovely ladies out there hiding their grey hairs? If so, should I be worried or hide mine or just be grey and proud lol?

I discovered my first grey hair at the tender age of 21. Now, almost 20 years later, I've got a salt 'n pepper (heavy on the salt) head which more than once was rewarded with the reaction "where did you get that color"?
Needless to say, that I don't dye my hair ;)
It really depends on the contrast, the grey to your original hair color, does it fit your style, your hairdo, do you feel comfortable with it or not, etc.
At least I am not going bald...man that would really suck.
