Hair turning gray!

I'm 45, I still have all my hair and it's mostly the original color. I'm seeing more and more gray coming in, though. I'm thinking about trying hair coloring, but I don't want it to look unnatural.

Try and revoke my "Man Card". I have 7 (5 grown) kids and I'm a Grandpa.
 
Keith Murray has grey hair and has had it all his life but that didn't stop him from being awesome sauce.

Now you see, that guy on the left has the type of hairstyle that old baldy gits used to have. When they went bald on top they'd grow long hair at the back and sweep it all forward to cover the bald patch, gluing it down with industrial quantities of hair laquer. One gust of breeze and the whole thing would lift up like an airbrake.

Strange that it's become a fashion statement :D

Ha! We call that the "comb-over" here.
 
I have one or two grays right off my temple, but I pull 'em out or they fall out.
I'm thinning some on the top of my head, but my hair that receded is actually coming back, which is odd.

My my Papa (Mom's dad) had a shiny surface so I'm sure I will at some point. IIRC it mostly comes from your mom's dad's genes as far as hair stuff goes.

Sucks b/c my dad is mid 50's, has some graying, but still FULL thick thick head of hair. I did too until about 2 years ago at 26/27... :(
