    In our family, it goes gray, but it doesn't go away.

    And that works just fine by me.

    Grey is the new blond.

    Something to be said for letting go gracefully. I've been getting gray the past few years, but there will be no dye for me. To me, that would be almost as bad as a comb-over on the scale of desperate vanity. Spnited's right about the ladies our age, too. I don't mind and I understand why women color their hair, but they can be very attractive with some gray.

    First, it sounds so much better if you call it silver, not grey.

    Silver hair on a man is incredibly sexy to me.

    I think there's a difference between silver and grey, 21. Grey is matte, silver has some sheen to it.

    Anderson Cooper = grey
    Emmylou Harris = silver

    I have decided to stop dying, but the good Lord says, "Who the hell do you think you are? You all have to die some day."

    I'm getting some gray, and getting compliments on the look. But with the family history, that leetle bald spot will grow bit...by bit...by bit... :'(

    I got my first gray hairs in high school. I'm completely white now. It shocks me when some woman compliments me on it out of the blue, which happens every couple of months.

    I love when middle-aged women show their gray proudly. It's a great look, and it says a lot about their attitude towards life.

    Thank you.

    I knew you'd come around eventually.

    Just call me "The Silver Fox"

    Silver/grey hair hot.

    Mullets? Still not.

    There's a guy at the Goose who may have the best mullet in the history of mulletdom. Problem is, he's slightly bald on top--in places.

    A guy commented that he looked like a "fucking rabid squirrel" .

    I dated [read:casually messed around with] a girl in college who had long black hair with a single gray streak running down the middle. Very odd, but I kinda liked it.

    I'd be more afraid of losing my hair than going gray myself.
