Barmy Blue's Bland Blog

Grey hair at 25? Sounds on the young side, though it can happen. I don't recall ever having any in my 20s. I probably had a few in my 30s. Late 40s is when it took over my head. Does grey hair run in your family? I think I had the same pattern as my father.

Is your hair very, very dark? I know sometimes people with black hair their hair turns white. Either way, it's a striking look.

Not at all. My hair's blonde. But a few strands are red. I've read that hair gets darker just before the pigment runs out. I think I'd prefer white hair to grey, so far it's only white strands. My granddad and uncle both had red hair and it turned completely white when they were old. I say old because both of them had white hair by the time I was born, but I'm told it was very red when they were younger.
Also, on the other side of my family I have to say that Napoleon's been grey for as long as I've known him.
It's only a few strands of white for now, it's not taken over just yet.

My hair started turning grey at 17, so at 25 you're doing well :-) actually my hair has changed colour twice in my lifetime: when I was very small it was ginger then when I turned around 4 ish it went dark, dark brown. Now it is whatever colour comes out of the packet, though I am tempted to dye it white and have done with it.

Merry Christmas Bluebiird. I hope it's a great one.
