You were enjoying an otherwise normal day when you spotted it it the bathroom mirror: a gray hair. It stands out like a weed in a sea of carefully-groomed grass.
Silently, you admonish yourself: It's the stress! I shouldn't have let it get to me!
You've probably heard that you can stave off the appearance of grays in your mane by keeping stress levels low. In that case, I've got some good and bad news: It's bogus. Stress has little to do with your silver locks. In reality, genetic factors appear to play the strongest role in determining when your hair begins to lose its color.
"For the vast majority of people, graying hair is not down to something you have done, but to genetic factors beyond your control," Nina Goad of the British Association of Dermatologists told the BBC.

Something light and amusing.

I don't have any gray hair anyway. My hair is either "shiny" or "lustrous", depending on another person's point of view. :whistle:

Mine is grey - beard, or absent - head. :tongue2:

If your beard is long enough, you probably look like an anarchist. :headbang:

Its genetic. I was almost totally grey by the time I was 30 years old.
It ain't no thang.

Mine is grey - beard, or absent - head. :tongue2:
What color is "absent"?
Mine's hair on top is absent too... And gray on the face...
