It is, in turn 40 this year and in the past year they’ve only just started to fill in. My dad had almost completely black hair into his early 60s. Both he and I have had super stressful lives. My mom had very obvious grays by the time I was born when she was 27. He’s half Native American and she’s 100% Dutch so wildly different genetics
Yeah, I knew a guy back in high school who at 18 started going bald, and not a nice bald, poor bugger. There was another man I met who was in his 50s and had white hair since he was 11 or so, thick full pure white hair. Myself, @50ish, maybe 10 whiteish hairs on my head, and about half my beard.
Can’t imagine such a low stress life that greys didn’t come in till 40s, I’m over here with greys in my late 20s…
I think it’s genetic sometimes - I didn’t have a single grey hair until I was 35, which is when a bunch of health stuff kicked off.
Still don’t have much grey at 48, and my grandfather was only about 50/50 when he died at 85.
I have not had a stress-free life.
True that genetics do take a part of it, but sadly both of my parents didn’t develop greys until their mid-50s…

I’ve had them since my early 20s.
The years have been cruel
I hope it’s a few select hairs and not patches :') that’s how it was for me starting at around 22.
It was patches. Its zones now that 20 more years have gone by
