What age did you spot your first white hair/hairs (if you did) and how have you dealt with it?

1. Early 30s, and I ignored them entirely. They have some friends now, and they get ignored as well.

   Wait until the first white body hair….that’s an eye opener.

2. I’ve had random white hairs since I was like 8. Im now 35 and still get a random one every now and again, just the same as I did as a kid. I don’t mind them

3. I was 38. I celebrated the milestone. I had myself a bakery cupcake and mindfully loved on myself while I ate it. I mindfullly appreciated the older women in my life, their accomplishments, their style, their experience. I did the same with myself.

   I celebrate my body.

4. 42 and still waiting.

5. Mid 20s, I think. It wasn’t something I felt like I had to deal with. It’s just hair.

6. I have a scattering of grey at 42, but seriously, women with grey hair wearing it as it is because it’s their hair and they’ll do whatever they want with it? That’s so freaking sexy.

   Wear your age with defiance and pride. Don’t let anyone shame you for the traces of still being alive.

7. Oh I was 23 or so.. and I just die my hair. I have it from my dad who started having grey hair at an early age as well

8. 32, did nothing. I don’t dye my hair and honestly I rarely cut it. Looking forward to seeing how my grey develops naturally.

9. This year, at the age of 28. I just left it and had a laugh. Don’t give 2 sh*ts.

10. Somewhere in high school, and I can’t wait for my hair to turn all white!

12. 30, and a few more in the year since then. I don’t mind them at all, and keep them. I think grey hair on women looks kind of badass.

    I’ve known many woman to get them in their early to mid twenties: Some keep them, some dye them, some pluck them if they only come up here or there. Anything you choose to do is valid!
