    I started going grey at 13 yo and by 18 yo I was regularly coloring my hair to cover the grey. I become completely grey by my early 30s. It became way too much maintenance to color my hair (needing touch ups every 2 weeks), so I eventually gave up and just let my grey grow out and am happy with the way it looks. I’m still young and maybe it ages me, but saving hundreds of dollars and hours in the salon every month is so worth it.

      I stared greying in my late 20’s due to genetics. I started coloring when someone thought my daughter was my granddaughter. I colored until I was 50. I had to do it every 14 to 18 days to keep roots from showing. My colorist did a fantastic job and no one knew I was coloring. I always felt if you are going to color don’t show roots. My hair is the texture of Dr.Ellis so it’s more difficult to hide grey roots. And I think it looks really tacky to see someone’s grey roots. Not coloring at all looks better in my opinion. I do miss looking younger but not all the money and time spent to keep it that way. Now at 60 my hair is nearly total white. I do get some low lights every 3 months to give my hair dimension.

      My great uncle had a doctor who was probably 50 and had all grey hair. She looked as though she was probably a blonde when younger but the way she styled it she looked great, I didn’t ask her age but she didn’t look as old as im sure she actually was. I think it’s easier for blonds to transition than brunettes but after it’s all grey, if you like it, rock it!

It was hard at times to keep going, but I’m so glad I did. I feel way more confident now and no longer am battling the silver crown that came through between colours.

    I started graying significantly after becoming a mom at 30. At 34 now, I have so much gray hair at the front of my head, and it ages me, so I choose to dye my roots monthly. It's a major pain, and I'd happily invest in a treatment to reverse the grays.

    I started going grey fairly young (after my mother) and I coloured it dark brown well into my 50s. But it was starting to become a pain because I would have to get the roots coloured every 3-4 weeks and it was expensive and time consuming (if I coloured it at home I made a mess in the bathroom lol). I decided to embrace my grey hair and started growing it out around my mid-50s. I love my grey because it actually looks silver and I get a lot of positive comments on it and people ask me if that is real or if I coloured it that way and I tell them it's all natural. Some days when I look in the mirror I feel I look my age (which will be 60 in July) and that's okay, but once in a while I think about colouring it brown again but then I never do. I think my grey is here to stay because I love it and it is only when I think other people might judge me about it I get self-doubts and many of the negative comments come from actual friends. But I believe in aging gracefully and loving yourself at any age :)

    I’ve used Mayraki color restoring treatment and it really works, you get your original color back. But the plant extract in it leaves horrible stains on pillows and towels, so I’ve stopped using it. It might be worth using for people who wash their hair regularly (so you can apply it in the morning and rinse in the evening for example). My mom has great results with it too!

    I just henna'd my hair today. I have to do it every 6-7 weeks and I'm so over it. But I still do it because I like how it looks afterward, and without the drying effects of chemical dyes. Someday I'll probably cut my hair short and let it be salt and pepper but that will need to be when I'm ready to start looking old. Right now I still pass for someone in their 30s even though I'm 50s, but only with freshly henna'd hair or a wig.

    Great information! I just started to get a few gray hairs at 50 (I am 51) and luckily they blend in with my ash blonde hair pretty well. I heard glutathione supplementation was helpful in reducing oxidative stress and delaying grey hair and starting taking it about 5 years ago i can’t isolate my slowing to grey to glutathione because I also lead a healthy life except for stress but I have much less grey than my siblings who are around the same age as me. However my siblings both have darker hair, I wonder if Caucasians with darker hair are more prone to go grey earlier or if the contrast in color is just more noticeable?

    Hi Dr. Ellis, what a great video! I’m going to be 40 next week (but at least at the beginning of COVID was still getting carded for R-rated movies!); still, I’m obsessed with delaying my greying. It seems to be the one telltale sign that I may not be a teenager anymore. I have dark almost black hair. Permanent dyes are always an option, but I love the look of highlights, specifically balayage, which is hard to camouflage with all the stray silvers. My current stylist recommends holding off on permanent dyes (using the Demi-permanent options) for as long as possible. It still kind of sucks. Demi-permanent doesn’t take away from the greys at all. I have been trying Arey (both the supplement and the topical spray), but don’t know if they have made any difference. Time will tell, but hopefully science comes up with new innovations soon!

Now at 66, my hair is less grey than it was before I changed my diet. That has been pretty amazing. I have read commentary on many keto/ carnivore videos that others have had a similar experience. I did up my protein and fat consumption significantly, which may be contributing to this.

In addition, I no longer leave the house in the daytime without a UPF 50 cap. I heard that UVB radiation affects the texture of the hair since it sucks out the proteins. Also, I heard that UVA radiation can accelerate the destruction of the melanocytes. ( Not sure since I have no background in science). Thus far, I have not seen any change in color but I have definitely seen a change for the positive in the texture of my hair.

Since I grew out my silver hair 6 years ago, no offense silver sisters, I just can not get use to it and have tried to color it back to a light brown.

    Most of my family went grey in their 20/30s but they were all smokers. I never smoked and I have some grey but you really have to be close to me to see them. My hair has gotten darker over the years. When I was younger I had a mixture of blond, brown and red in my hair. Now it’s mostly dark brown and a bit of grey sprinkled in lol. My gram took an iron supplement back in the early 2000s (she was in her late 70s at the time and her hair got darker, she still had mostly grey and white but I noticed in the back it was almost brown rather than grey. I had an aunt who was battling cancer in 2018/2019 and after chemo her naturally white blonde hair grew back a light brown/dirty blonde color and was curly. She had extremely straight hair before that. My dad (aunts brother) didn’t go grey as he aged but his hair darkened from white blond to a darker yellow, he was a smoker as well and his hair receded a bit but he never had grey (he passed at 51, so he didn’t make it to senior hair).

    Dr. Ellis, I've seen recommendations to increase copper consumption to reverse enzyme loss due to cortisol, but if it's norepinephrine and not cortisol that plays that role in enzyme loss, is there any correlating mineral/chemical that would reverse the damage by norepinephrine?

    My husband passed away suddenly 2 yrs ago. We were only 54 yr old. My hair has always been a chestnut brown but within 6 months had so much gray hair. I am still so sad and struggling in every way. So I guess stress is the reason I am going gray.

    My gray hair seems to have a two-shade process, where some hairs head towards white/clear and others are some untinted dark color ... neither matching the brown that I used to have. It seems as if there are two distinct processes going on. I would have expected "death of melanocytes" to have a more uniform color.

      I used Arey for about 6 months and do think that it made a small difference. I have had one white/grey patch since late 20s (zero impact there but also would not expect it) but was noticing more along my part, etc. I am in my early 50s now. It definitely added to my hair health. I switched my hair dollars to Nutrafol which also has helped my hair health. I do feel that my grey hair has slowed down overall.

    I think it's genetic and life style. I have a few white hairs being blonde. That being said I taught college PE classes and 18-22 year olds have grey hair prodomently dark hair girls. I've lived a Vegan non processed life style and I do supplement with greens etc. But it's okay to dry your roots just get a shade that covers not your hair or it's too dark. I tried darker and looked brown which was dark ash blonde. My sister is brunette. It's semi permanent. I don't have to worry about roots quite yet. To wash their own. Maybe when it's all white at 80 that will be fine... My mom is dark blonde and really has a lot of her natural hair; she never dyed it. God bless ❤

  • @KateReed2121

    I've got a lot of grey hair, and since my natural hair color is dark brown, it kind of makes my hair look blond in some lights. I have a lot of streaking. I have also noticed that since I have reduced the amount of stress in my life that some of my hair has two inches of dark hair at the root, and six inches of grey at the bottom.
    I do want to try copper and zinc, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

A large number of my middle school students are getting a noticeable amount of gray hair and all of them are of mainly Samoan descent and some with Hawaiian/Samoan descent. I am so curious as to why this is. Genetics? Diet mixed with their genetics? I feel so bad that 6th/7th graders are having to deal with this, but most students are pretty nice and don't tease them.
