  1. I’m fascinated that you have a beard, I don’t think I’ve seen you sport that look.

    I have yet to find a grey hair. That’s not surprising since both my parents didn’t get any grey until they were in their 50s, and still aren’t all the way there.

    But sometimes I will find one snowy white hair in my eyebrows, which will make for a fascinating look if this trend continues.

    • It’s really a goatee, which is pretty much what I have in this icon. Full-fledged beards are too itchy.

      I was reading about the onset of white hairs, and it seems that having blonde hair increases how quickly white hairs appear in life, since we have less melanin to start with. But other genetics can overrule that, as you’ve seen from your folks.

      In fact, I didn’t know, but there are not really any “grey” hairs, you just get the appearance of “grey” from the proximity of white and regular hair color. I’m learning so much.

  2. Funny how that happens…

    I let my “natural” haircolor grow out and decided that I didn’t like having a pinstriped head.

    Feria “Chocolate Cherry” is my friend.

  3. I have had some white in my beard since my early twenties. At least I avoided my fathers curse of having white in the middle, brown at the sideburns and red cheeks.
