Pretty embarrassing to admit for a gamer, but I'm in my 40's and my facial hair and head are starting to gray. What about about you?

Yep. A few every here and there. Not too noticable yet because I shave my head and face, but it's happening. Turning 42 in May.

@DEVILinIRON: at 40 I think it's normal.

I know much younger guys with lots of grey hair.

My hair seems ok by now, but my beard has become so grey that it have started shaving everyday.

It's the problem with aging. Sadly no cure for that .

@DEVILinIRON: Its not embarrassing at all. I'm 37 and I have gray hair and facial hair. I got my first gray patch on my head when I was 21.

My head is actually still pretty much its normal brown, but with a few gray wisps at the temples. For 51, I'll take it.

If I didn't shave multiple times a week, my facial hair would have definite gray spots.

Yup. Not full gray but I've been finding a gray hair now and again in my beard. I think my first gray hair was a few years ago, now every month or two I'll look in the mirror and go "Oh, hello there little friend" and I just leave it in.

Looking forward to going gray. I think men look better with a bit of "salt and pepper" look to them 😊

Not embarrassing at all.

I just hit 40. Been balding for a few years now, and I occasionally find some gray hairs.

I shave my hair though, so I admit it might not be as big a deal for me as it is for others that actually care about their hair.

To be frank, I really enjoy being an "older" gamer. I enjoy games more now than I ever did, and I have the disposable income to buy what I like (unlike when I was younger).

Yeah my college roommate went gray by the time we had graduated. Not like full-blown gray but pretty much there. He had stressed about it for a while but honestly he got used to it and I thought it made him look older (but not old old), wiser, and more mature.

I'll be 39 in a few months and I have a few gray hairs. My wife always gives me a jokingly hard time about them, but I've earned them.. lol. The way I see it is that if you've lived long enough to get gray hairs then you've put up with enough bullshit to warrant their existence.

Just a very few grays on my goatee and lots on my sideburns but that's due to stress. My main head, I have no grays but nowadays, I keep my head cut and being bald helps hiding my grays on the sideburns.

Having grays on my goatee, I actually like it.

Yes, it started gradually in my early 20's, now when I'm 42 my sides are mostly gray, and I also got a lot of grays on my chest. I'd prefer to be completely gray, like Aliston Cooper for example. The way I am now, the grays on the side always seem to grow faster than the blacks on the top, so I started getting shorter and shorter trims, and more frequent too. I'm not giving up on my baby face yet haha.

I know many younger men who have a significant amount of grey hair. While my hair seems to be holding up for now, my beard has turned so grey that I now find myself shaving every day. It's just one of those inevitable aspects of aging, unfortunately, with no cure in sight

A few hairs on the side of head are grey and top. My mustache, sideburns and goatee have a few grey hairs. I actually noticed this when I turned 38 last year. I just shave my face every few days.

Better than looking like Tom Cruise, who degrades every movie he's in by coloring his hair.

Not really, but my wife will look for stragglers and will pluck one if she finds one to make fun. Got a full head of hair still thankfully (my dad super bald).

I'm 32

I have my grandpa's view of it "better to turn grey than turn loose" besides I think it makes me look more extinguished.

Yup, but not beating myself up over it. I also have thin hair which rather than try comb-overs or hair growth crap, just shave it all off, people tell me it makes me look 10 years younger that way, I mostly just like the convenience and cost effectiveness of it. I have a laugh with friend my same age about growing old, like few months back I was telling him I discovered that I had little hairs growing out of my ear long enough I could pluck them with my fingers, he laughed and was like "ha, I get those too".

37 and have full salt & pepper on top, with streaks of grey in my beard. Always said i'd rather go grey than bald, and my full head of hair seems happy to comply.
