Fuckity fuck fuck fuck.

[progmom]

I have pulled three grey hairs from my head in the past week.
I am not ready for this.

[Taverner]

1. Just call yourself "storm"

And start wearing skinsuits ;)

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

29. Naaaah. ROGUEMOM!

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

2. shave your head and save the grief?

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

3. Isn't that going to lead to 6?

I have a lot of grey too...

[kick-ass-bob]

5. actually, I think it leads to

baldness.

:7

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

7. hahaha

:rofl:

[sundog]

11. you're putting a smile on my face today bob

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

16. you put a smile on my face

almost everyday :loveya:

[kick-ass-bob]

18. Just know that the little yellow-gutted bug is in a better place.

:P

[iconoclastic cat]

4. Mrs. icon.cat actually points them out to her student.

"See this one?" she says, "It has your name on it."

[Book Lover]

6. You're not alone

My grey hairs are short and wiry; my real hair is long and straight. It's made me cry, and no fibbing.

[merh]

8. If it means you are still living and breathing - then celebrate it!

I know others that had wised they could live to have gray hairs!

It means you are living and I am glad you are! :bounce:

:hug: :loveya:

[sundog]

9. i found a gray chest hair a few months ago

i plucked it

[kick-ass-bob]

15. the owner of that hair was not amused.

x(

[sundog]

17. sorry bob

[LisaM]

10. Just get that stuff that Keith Hernandez and that other guy use

you know, the ad where the guy in the bar has a beard full of grey hair and can't get a much younger, much more attractive women (with dyed hair, though) to pay attention to him, and the two announcers say, "re-JECTED!" Them, right there in the bar, he goes and combs this stuff in his beard, comes back in, and now two minutes later, the woman dives into his arms and looks ready to go home with him.

I don't think it's Grecian formula, but something similar. You can get some.

Which reminds me, WHY is Grecian formula only for men?

[sui generis]

19. It's "Just For Men" Beard and Moustache

That would explain why !

}{

Works great on hoo haw patches too if you want to get everything to match.

Seriously, it's "temporary" color and there's not enough in the bottle to do a full mane of hair - just a short republican bob.

It washes out in a few shampoos - and fewer color choices: lifeless brown. medium lifeless brown. dark lifeless brown. really dark lifeless brown. totally fake black. really totally fake black. and Dark totally fake black.

[youthere]

32. Hoo haw patches?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[trackfan]

12. Tell me about it! Do they still make Grecian Formula 16?

[nini]

13. Oh puhlease.. cry me a river sister!

:nopity: :P

I started turning grey at 17 and am almost completely there. Thank God for dye is all I can say. I'm not ready to go au natural quite yet :cry:


seriously.. I understand - it's not fun to find those first few. :hug:

[youthere]

33. Yep..Boo fucking Hoo.

I've been graying since I was 19. No sympathy Progmom. Sorry. Can't do it. Nope.

[progmom]

36. uh, ok.

i'll try to make sure everything i post from now on can pass your stringent posting requirements.

[youthere]

37. Nah...I'm just teasing a little...

and wallowing in self pity..didn't mean to offend.

[progmom]

39. sorry...i am cranky about other stuff

sorry i snapped at you. :hug:

[youthere]

44. S'allright...

I think my post sounded a whole lot bitchier than I intended...LOL wanna' trade gray hairs? I'll take your three and you can...well hell...I'll just shave my head.

[sui generis]

14. which one is you?

in your sig line? :evilgrin:


heh, from here on down the only thing you can do is try to keep things patched up faster than they fall apart . . .

:P

P.S. this getting old crap is not for sissies.

[arwalden]

20. Just Wait Until The Day You Start...

... finding gray pubes. AAAAAAAAK! :scared: :hide: :dye: :shave: :deny: :pluck: :tweeze:

[kick-ass-bob]

22. I remember when you told me that

when I said I saw some gray.

I was waiting....

:yoiks:

[arwalden]

28. That's The Moment Of Truth...

... when you look in the mirror and say to yourself... "Self... You're getting older. Get over it. Learn to cope."

That's what I did.

There *are* worse things: one of them... being middle aged and STILL shopping at the Limited or Gap or Structure.

It's one thing to try and look good for one's age, but it's quite another thing to completely deny reality and to live in a fantasy world (and looking silly doing it.)

But, that's what I did too. I guess it's a process everyone has to go through.

[sakabatou]

21. I know a 16 yr old with salt and pepper hair

[XNASA]

23. How could anyone so beautiful......

....be concerned with something so trivial?

:*

[progmom]

24. ....

:blush:

[njdemocrat106]

25. The day I find a gray hair, I'm dropping everything and running to the

store to pick up some Just for Men. I've never colored my hair before, but I'd freak out if and when I spot a gray hair on my scalp.

[RebelOne]

26. I have gray in my hair, but nobody will ever see it,

thanks to Miss Clariol.

[Pithlet]

27. I know. It sucks. have a ton of gray hair, and I'm only 33

I noticed my first gray hair when I was 19. I was okay until a chronic illness set in, and that's when the grays really started coming. Now, it's probably about 30% gray. I've been dying it for some time.

[LisaM]

30. Heck, I don't even KNOW what color my hair is

I finally took in a ponytail my mother had saved from when I was about 11 or 12 and my hairdresser matched it. She always calls it, "your dead hair", but she does a good job matching it.

[progmom]

57. i love that. your dead hair.

:rofl:

[LisaM]

59. It creeps my boyfriend out but I'm glad I kept it

It's in a little paper bag from our hometown pharmacy that's not there anymore. It was a flagship store in ShopTown.

I'll show it to you some day.

[progmom]

60. you mean...if i ever show up to meet you?

:blush:

[LisaM]

62. Well there's that

Heck, we'll LOOK like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton by the time we meet, except that our hair obviously won't be grey.

[uppityperson]

31. Found my 1st grey hair in my armpit, while waiting @ drivethru@ bank

Had my arm on the windowsill, happened to glance @ my armpit to find a grey hair! The teller didn't know how to respond when I showed it to her. Smiled rather nervously as I drove away.

Now I finally have some on my head, they have some body and curl to them which is really great contrast to my baby fine thin hair. Someday I might even look like a respectable elder.

[dbonds]

34. A few months ago I gave up coloring my hair.

It was costing a fortune and it is a lot of upkeep. Letting the grey come through now - and there is a good bit of it. I am beginning to realize we should not fight getting older. It is not a bad thing. And at 45 I still have half of my life left (if I live as long as my grandma's). Age is wisdom. Let the grey revolution begin.

[MissB]

35. Awwww.....

:hug:

Things could be worse. You could have thinning hair. Or you could be going bald from chemo. A few grey hairs never really hurt anything.

[chaska]

38. Here's an idea: Why don't we start to revere maturity instead of Buh-ritny

Okay, that sucked. Britney Spears is what I meant. Let's stop worshiping adolesence.

Edit: Let's start with the presidency. Juvenile George must go.

[progmom]

40. i like my hair

it has nothing to do with aging. i am ok with the crow's feet. i just don't want different hair.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

41. It is always a shock to find that first gray hair!

I pulled a WHITE hair out at the tender age of 20....

And then and there, I decided to let it go...and just be myself...

You've seen my pics...I'm cool with gray...especially when it's kind of silvery and shiny....

I have almost NO upkeep...it works for me...



Feel better, OK? We love you no matter what your hair color is...


:hug: :loveya:

[WCGreen]

42. I think I have three brown hairs left.....

[CaliforniaPeggy]

45. And just *um* .....

where are they? I'm bad, I know...I couldn't resist!

:evilgrin:


:blush:

[WCGreen]

51. At the base of my neck, on top of my back....

The others are black

[Spider Jerusalem]

43. Only three?

I found my first grey hair when I was 19, and now at 28, I have enough to be just slightly noticeable under the right light. Doesn't bother me anymore; greying early runs in the family anyway, and there are worse things than a few grey hairs. You'll get over it.

[AlCzervik]

46. 3? I think i have only 3 left that aren't grey or white.

[KitchenWitch]

47. I have had grays since i was 13

Now I have a great "Bride of Frankenstein" thing going :rofl:

[u4ic]

48. I've had a large grey streak

in the back of my head since I was 5.

Somehow a grey hair here and there doesn't bother me so much...

[NNadir]

49. What it, you'll end up like me:

Bald.

If I had hairs, I could always dye them.

[tjwmason]

50. Can I get you anything to cheer your mood?

I'm pretty obsessive about my hair, and so am vicariously suffering with you.

:hug:

[gmoney]

52. Here's your chance to go platinum blonde!

[Roland99]

53. Emmylou Harris and Lucinda Williams have grey hair and they are SEXXXY!

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

54. lol, dont u love getting old?

:)

[UrbScotty]

55. You're only as old as you think.

You are probably younger than Debbie Stabenow - and much younger than Carl Levin. ;-)

[progmom]

56. i'm not even old enough to be president yet

:)

[Debi]

58. I just found a grey hair on my 16 year old son's head!

My brother and I both went grey early (I do touch up dye jobs....)

It's not a sign of aging...it's a sign of intelligence!

[merh]

61. My posts are being ignored.

So I am just going to keep posting until I antagonize the hell out of folks.

I will be a little nuisance (that has been dying my hair for 10 years now - as a matter of fact, I've been dying it for so long now I'm not sure of my natural color.)

So, the heck to grays - glad you are out there to worry about it! :hi:

:hug:

[progmom]

63. what?

i'm not intentionally ignoring you. :hug:

[merh]

64. I know you are not -- you are just having a blah day!

I hope you have a much better evening! :hug:

:loveya:

[bridgit]

65. nee-ner, nee-ner, nee-ner; i found only one...

the other day x( http://www.ebaumsworld.com/flash/fwordflash.html

[In_The_Wind]

66. awww

I'm SORRY progmom!

[Dave Reynolds]

67. Mine started at 19 years of age,

consider yourself blessed.

I look older than 41, as you can see from this:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

75. The hell you say!

You do NOT look older than 41...whatever gives you that idea?

YOu are sexy and hot, damn it....

You look good...to my eyes, anyway....and that little bit of gray is wonderful...


:pals:

[Dave Reynolds]

78. You are too kind,

but when people are so bold as to try and guess my age, they usually pick late 40s to early 50s.

I'm not saying that's old, but it makes me feel like I should use that manly hair coloring stuff.

My moustache is all gray now, and I no longer grow a beard.

[Akoto]

68. I'm twenty, and ...

I already have silver hairs. My hair is really long though, so maybe that has something to do with it.

[GOPisEvil]

69. I'm probably 20-25% gray. It sucked at first, but I got used to it.

The gray is more noticeable when my hair is longer, so I try to keep it short.

[CottonBear]

70. It's better if your hair turns grey than if it turns loose!

;)

[ofrfxsk]

71. Found my first white hair last week but get this

it was in my nose! WTF? I'm mid thirties so I knew it was coming but in my nose? Anyway, I plucked that sucker out and had a sneezing fit for a half hour after. I'm still blonde/brown all over the rest of my body so I thought this white hair in my nose was a tad ridiculous. I'm laughing about it.
We all get older. That's life. Be grateful for every gray and wrinkle. You're alive and you've lived. Wrinkles don't hurt.
:)

[Anarcho-Socialist]

72. What language!

:yoiks:

:P

[ltfranklin]

73. Nice Signature Graphics...

but you realize that, due to the subject matter, it's size is now approaching infinity.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

74. Thanks...

...it is approaching infinity, but just don't tell the mods.

[Dastard Stepchild]

76. me too :(

:cry:

I'm too young to have grey hairs.

[Hardrada]

77. With this %&@!* Shrub Misadministration

I wonder why my hair has not gone all completely white already! We are fortunate to have the dark hairs we have. At LX years I still have half dark hair but for how long??

[Bok_Tukalo]

79. Don't worry. It makes you look distinguished.

Wait ... you're a girl.

Wow, that sucks.
