Gray Has a Way of Sneaking Up On You

Gray has a way of sneaking up on you

Most of the women I interviewed for Going Gray, Looking Great! couldn't pin down when they noticed their first gray hair to a specific date, or even year. "I think I was 23 or 27, but I really don't remember." "I know we moved to Boston, because that's where I first started coloring my hair, but I don't know when it started to gray."

Whether the discovery of that first gray hair was accompanied by intense scrutiny, or mild curiosity, it just didn't stick. Especially if there was a significant lag time between the first grays, and a multitude. Women do remember when they first noticed a significant amount of graying in their hair. The moment they admitted, maybe to no one but themselves, that they were actually "going gray."
