Question for mostly older members..
So, while looking in the mirror at work a few minutes ago, I noticed something.

What it was, made me laugh a little bit. Just the thought alone made me chuckle, rather get upset. I'm 20 years old. What I found?

A gray hair.


So.. My question to those that it applies to is when did you find your first gray hair? Were you upset?

I don't know when JJ found his, but I suspect he wasn't too upset. It may have been gray but it was hair nonetheless.

I was 23 when I first realized my hair was "receding".

Now I have a shiny head like JJ.

That's not cool man! When I was a senior in high school, I'd notice hair on my pillow whenever I woke up. My receding hairline started to migrate back. Now, there are patches that are thinning out in multiple places on my head. NOT COOL! When I first found out, I was depressed. I really was. I started to shave my head and now, I don't really care about it. I think I look damn sexy with my bald head. I pull it off nicely.
