Hair's greying around temples and in front of ears.
I don't do anything about them, although the above poster recommended hot oil treatments and they do make the greys stick out less.
Thanks, Onif

Got a few in my sideburns, and a vertical grey streak on the left side of my chinbeard if I grow it out. I'm told that's the sort of thing some people dye their beard to get. I'd personally trade if for more beard.

I have a few I believe. I treat them the same as normal hair. I let them grow on my head. Just randomly doing what hair does I guess?

My NT sister and I began getting gray hairs in our mid-20s.

It's not a big deal for either of us.

If you guys wanna hear something funny. When I read the title of this thread, I actually thought of grey rabbits. I guess that's due to Aspie literal thinking & me being tired.

I started losing my hair in my mid 20s & I started getting a little grey hair at 30. I find it odd when people on this forum talk about how they believe Aspies age slower physically in addition to aging slower mentally cuz I'm aging a lot faster physically than I am mentally. I am doing some things to try to stop/slow my balding; I did a bit of research on that. I also researched grey hair a little. Grey hair is caused by the body depleting something called Catalase. Some people got the idea that making a Catalase supplement might stop/slow hair turning grey. I've been taking a Catalase supplement for a while now but I'm not entirely sure if it's helping since I have some colorblindness but there's a chance it's helping. I buy the supplement off Amazon cuz it's probably kind of a rare supplement. Amazon has different 1s.
A while ago a poster on this forum mentioned in a thread that taking a supplement called Juvenon slowed his hair turning grey & his balding. I looked it up a little & it's not marketed for that but there's a chance it may help. There's different Juvenon supplements to help with various things. I would guess that the cellular health tablets which have the original formula might be the best to use for hair. They may have the strongest dose of Juvenon in each pill so you can take fewer pills & get more Juvenon for your money. However the other Juvenon supplements claim to help different various things if you want help for other issues. I woulda bought it a while ago but the best deal on their site is an 8 month supply & I cant afford that. eBay & Amazon have some Juvenon supplements but they're more expensive. I wish their site would accept PayPal cuz I could use PayPal credit & have 6 months to pay it off interest free. Maybe if I get another stimulus check, I'll be able to buy it after buying some essential stuff & paying some bills.

DISCLAIMER!
I am NOT recommending anything. I am just offering ideas. I highly recommend researching a little before trying anything I suggest. But my suggestions give you a jumping/staring off point.

I found out something weird... it seems the active ingredient in a certain men's hair-darkening product is the same active ingredient in a pink, mint-flavored, OTC medicine used to treat diarrhea.  The active ingredient is called Bismuth Citrate.  I can't endorse any product for darkening gray hair because I don't have enough hair left upon which to try such a product, but anyone with a good search engine could probably find out the names of both products.

I don't. Or at least, mine would've at least been very rare at the moment.
Either ways, my hair's not graying now and anytime soon.


My younger sister had very few and more likely may gray more and sooner than I do.
My mom already has a lot, just covered up.

I’m 27, and I think I’ve found a hair attached to my head that was white, although it’s possible it was just very light blonde (my hair is primarily brown but has some blonde in it if you look at the individual hairs).

My hair was blonde when I was a toddler but it turned dark brown after. I seem to notice more grey hair in my beard than on my head when I haven't shaved my face for a while. Which reminds me that I really should shave my face tomorrow cuz my facial hair is a bit longer than it ususally is when I shave & it's itching a little at times.

Me too

I have a few white/blonde hairs that have popped up in the last few years and a streak of them near the front that's mostly hidden (not on purpose), not quite a white forelock. Thick hair. My beard has brown, red, and even some blonde hairs in it.

Not doing anything about them,

I've got a bunch of them coming in. They don't really bother me now; I figure when they do, I'll be able to color my hair. Until then, as long as they blend in, it doesn't concern me.

My hair is graying, which is odd because I don't have any kids. Kids and the things they do that upset their parents are supposedly the reason their hair is turning grey and/or falling out. I guess that would also explain why the grandparents are usually completely grey-haired or bald! :twisted:

But seriously, the way the world is it's a wonder why I don't look 120 by now. :(

I found a site that I briefly checked out called, Grey Hair Specialist. It mentions some reasons why hair turns grey, mentions some natural things you might could do including supplements, mentions colorants, & mentions some newish research. It also talks about the Catalase I mentioned in my other post, it's mentioned in the Research section. I only checked the site out a little but it seems to kinda align with the research I've done years ago :arrow: https://www.grayhairspecialist.com/

I hear ya. The fact we're still alive is a miracle, unless we died & are living in hell & don't realize we died :skull:
