I'm a female but i use to use 'Just for men' when my sides started turning grey, but the rest stayed brown, now it's all grey and i like it much better, but 'Just for men' is great, last's longer than the womens dyes, also you can use a bit each time, and save the rest.

I had a couple of rogue greys a couple of years back and spent a horrified few minutes removing them with tweezers, The wretched things returned in due course and were treated to the same treatment. Weirdly, they stopped appearing and I now have a grey free zone.When they do decide to appear in force I may well leave them alone.

The better half got me a corker a few months back when she tickled me under the chin and exclaimed "Oooh! You've got some ginger hairs in your beard!" I was very unamused at her antics.

I have been going grey since i was 17. Behing my ears and on the top of my head - some of them are so grey they are practically white. Luckily I love my blonde highlights so I get away with it. I do pluck em out if a catch one though....

My hair is naturally very dark but now has about 50-56% grey/white. I'm only 36!! Maybe the years of constant dying it have taken it's toll. From the age of 13 my hair has never been it's natural colour. It was blonde for a few years then goth black for more than I care to remember. It's been every colour of the rainbow you can think of over the years.

Now I just do it a dark redish/black colour, mainly to get rid if the white hairs. I have thick curly hair but have you ever noticed how the white hairs are thicker and poke out like little corkscrews? Mine do anyway!

If the white hairs were more evenly spread then I might just leave it but they are concentrated in patches above/behind my ears and right on the top of my head. I've even had some of the younger kids at school ask me why I have a white stripe on the top of my head when it needs doing again!

I go and get it done professionally every three months.

Next day is tomorrow - I currently look like Worzel Gummidge's hairier cousin.

I started getting a few grey hairs when I was in my early 20s and now teh front of my head and sideburns is greyish, with the rets of my hair being dark. So I just get a cut and colour to the front of my hair and all is well again! :)

I have been covering my grey hair for the last 5 years and Im only 27!!!

Every month I take a trip down to Savers for my box of 'cosmic blue'. There aint nothing wrong with it, it's better than looking like a badger cos my grey comes in sporadic patches!

I started getting a few grey hairs on my sideburns a couple of years ago, when I was in my late twenties. This all started at about the time my three young 'uns were born.

Coincidence? You decide :|

I've gotten a lot more grey hairs since then, and I'm also going a little bald, but I'm not vain enough to dye my hair or wear a wig yet. The people I care about know how young I am so I have no need to :)

What I have decided to do, when the grey hairs outnumber the black, is to dye my hair steel grey.

I saw an elderly man with a steel grey hair dye a few years ago, and we looked well cool :thumbsup: However, he had more hair then than I probably do now, so that may lessen the effect :(

I've had my hair dyed professionally before, but a couple of weks later the grey hairs grow back again. I seem to be heading for a grey sreak on my left side. :(

Does 'just for men' last longer than a couple of weeks?

I get the odd one at the moment so just pluck them out. I think once I start looking like I have been painting the ceiling I will start booking in for the Blue Rinse only in Auburn!!!

What do you do if your Pubes go grey and don't want to go completely bald?

Sorry Ive been out in the sun today but it is a valid question which I have wondered about - I did ask my older sister but she is of a rotund figure as she likes to call it so says she doesn't care since she can't see them!

Can you actually use the same dye on the more private bits - just so I know for future reference. :o
