    Grey hair - prevention?
    Hi,

    A question not related to balding, but the other thing everyone has to go through .. Going grey!

    At 29 I'm not currently going grey myself, but am curious as to whether there's anything out there to help prevent it for the future?

    I have seen plenty of supplements that claim to do it, but the only real thing coming that I've seen is L'oreals "revolutionary" drug that is going through trials right now, and due out in 2015.

    Anyone know much about this, and is there anything worth doing now to help prevent it in the longer run?

    Thanks.

    Greying as balding is determined by your genes, so no there's currently nothing you can do about it.

    It has been discussed on the show that the cure for grey hair has been found. We still don't know when it will be available though.

    That would like be the L'oreal "cure" - which is expected to be released in 2015. Very little info about it out there though.

    Used to get comments about getting grey since I was 20. Never bothered me.
    I was even a bit proud about it. Becoming bald is something else.

    Yeh, am agreed about that.

    However, if there's something out there that actually works, many hair-conscious MPB sufferers would likely jump on it.

    I am not really concerned about my greying hair as I shave it anyway, but am concerned about my greying beard. I used to have stubble, but can't keep it now due to the grey. It used to look really cool, so I miss it.

    I've always thought guys with a full head of hair that's grey looks pretty cool and distinguished.

    I feel your pain. I'm getting salt and pepper on my sideburns. Don't know what to do, was actually thinking about getting grecian formula, but I'm only 28.

    I am getting a crap load of grey hair. I would rather have grey hair, than no hair. If the grey starts to bother me, there is an easy/cheap solution for that.
