Hair Today
Every time I get my hair cut I’m amazed at the amount of grey hair I see falling on the barbershop bib thing covering my lap. Not because there’s a particularly large amount of grey hair, but because any amount of grey is alarming when you’re only 25. Grey hair is something old people have to deal with, and I’m not old. Am I? I don’t feel old, I have all my teeth, nothing on me seems to be sagging and I have yet to start yelling at the damn kids to get off my lawn. So what’s up with my damn hair trying to turn grey?

Ah dude it happens. It could be worse, like Mark Joseph balding before he greaduated HS. Or Amelia's roomate who is only 20 looks like a little old lady from the back because her hair is more gray than black.

You are becoming a man... an old man. or your hair is just highlighting itself because certain strands are more important than others and your head want to make sure they are noticed.

I had 17 grey hairs when I was 17 yrs old. At a Dennys in Santa Clarita (near Magic Mnt), while wiating for our food to arive, my sister counted them. This was in 1982. Wait 'till you find that first grey chest hair (if you have c. h.'s). Or the skin on your hands don't have a silky smooth look anymore. Or you're about 38, and start gaining weight, even though you excercise and eat the same as you did when you where 25. Yeah, getting old is fun. But then, who wants to stay young forever?
PS. I like my grey hair. If you have a lot, at least you still have hair.
