Question Grey/gray hair

My mum started going grey when she was 30. Does this mean I will to?? Also, when I was about 16 I found a white hair growing from my head and thought nothing of it, but just recently I found another one. Am I going grey ALREADY???

I don't like the idea of turning grey when I'm 30, and especially not now - I'm only 19!

My Dad is 53 and has a full head of brown hair. Is it possible that I will take after him instead. Help. HELP!

Sorry about all the questions!

Nicole

Nicole, My hair is kind of a combination of both my mother & father. My mother turned grey early, while my father has a full head of hair(not much grey) either. So, I have a full head of hair, very thick, but like my mother have salt & pepper colored hair which started greying early in my twenty's. So, maybe like me you'll get a little of each from each parent.
Buck.

I'm in my early 40's now. I started to go grey when I was mid 20's. My son (around 12 at the time) so mentioned on a bus full of people. "Mom, you've got grey hair". Thank God for child abuse laws (just kidding). Besides now I get to go a little crazy now and then to cover what grey I do get I color it. Look in the store next time you are there. There are a zillion different shades to chose from. It's kind of fun being blonde one season then a redhead the next.

I have to agree with Irish Creme. If the grey comes, just color it. If you are healthy, I would think that is the most important thing. Our attitudes, happiness, personalities, loving life, family and God also register a top priority. My Dad at 88 had lots of grey hair and my Mom at 83 hardly had any. I am now 60 and still no grey hair and do not color the hair. I bet you will do just fine either way.
