i started getting grey hair when i was 13, my mom started hwne she was 16 and her mother when she was in her 20's. its a genetic trait. at first i pulled them out but when i hit 12th grade they got so bad that i gave up. i started dying my hair, i did for a few months with henna ...but those damn grey roots! eventually i figured they grey gives me a littl bit of something extra. they dont bother me that much, except when people point it out... as if i dont already know.
