    I had major streaks of gray by the age of 23 and my sister was totally gray at 17! Our parents on the other hand didn't gray until they both were in their 70's. We say that instead of giving our parents gray hair, they gave it to us and if you knew our parents, you'd totally understand. My ex-SIL's hair was almost completely white in her 20's and it earned her the nickname "Snowball".
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I really don't remember when I found my first one - somewhere in my 20's. And now at 65 I have a whole lot. I don't dye my hair, since I like the way it looks as it is. It's not an all over silver - mainly the top and sides, and it looks like it's been frosted or highlighted - not completely silver. Some women pay to get the look that Mother Nature gave me free of charge, and some people don't believe me when I tell them it's natural.

    I don't really remember when I had my first one but I started coloring my hair in my mid-30's. Last year I decided I wanted to see how much gray I really had so I stopped coloring. Well, it turned out I had more than I wanted so over the weekend I started coloring again. It is all in how you feel about yourself. I was feeling older than I wanted to when I looked in the mirror. My dad has a beautiful head of pure white hair which he has had since he was in his 50's. Some women look very attractive with gray hair. I am not one of them !

    I started graying out in my 20s; I was working on my PhD and always told people, "I EARNED these!"

    That's what I tell people too. After raising 2 boys, I'm surprised that I'm not Snow White!
