Going gray before my 24th birthday.
Sometime last year around October I found a single gray hair. Now I have 4 and i'm 3 months away from my 24th birthday. I know there is nothing I can do, but seeing myself age like that and being reminded of it every morning I look in the mirror is making me kind of depressed. I'm not like omg im gonna die tomorrow depressed, but also this feeling of im not gonna live forever is pissing me of. I dont think about it all the time, but sometimes its upsetting.
I know people have worse then a few grays, some even lose their hair, but how the hell does one just get over it and go on. I mean really get over it, like forget about it entirely and accept whats dealt.
The only thing, I guess ,I can look forward to is eventually looking like Raiden.

I wouldn't mind going bald or graying. I shave my head anyway it would save me the time.

By keeping in mind that George Clooney, Sean Connery, Ralph Fiennes, and Daniel Craig all have a few gray hairs, and they are (from what I understand from the magazine covers at the supermarket) the sexiest men in the known universe.

I started going bald at 18, I am 25 now and more bald than most men in their mid 30s. I just keep it short though and it looks alright. Does not seem to affect how the ladies see me or anything.

It looks distinguished on a guy to have a little gray.
Girls will think of you as being better prepared to support them, lol.
Given the choice I'd rather have a little gray than be a pimple-faced kid.
Welcome to adulthood. And recognize that your time here is short.
Feel better or worse now?

Don't feel so bad, Sam. I'm 20 and I've already lost at least half of my hair. First noticed the balding beginning when I was 16. Gray is better than balding. And just a couple years ago I had a mane of hair that went down to my shoulders. Oh well. Can't do **** about it, so I just don't worry...well, sometimes I think it'll hurt my chances w/women my age, but this hasn't happened yet.
