It is! It is!

And ladies -- embrace your grey hair. I personally have vowed to never dye my hair. I have earned every freakin' one of them, and I am going to wear them with pride!

But...YMMV.

Hey, I helped you with a few of those grey hairs!!!(probably about half of them are from me...)

After the imbroglio with my ex-fiance, I started to get some WHITE hairs. Not grey, but white hairs. And they are extra-curly, like Jenn said. But I have honey-colored hair (naturally), and they blend in pretty well. Add some highlights, and people never even know I have a few white hairs.

I wasn't gonna mention that part. But since you brought it up....

So you're going Platinum Blond!

No need to freak out. The forties are great.

Yes but it seems like only yesterday I was freaking out about turning thirty.... where did the last ten years go?

I have never freaked out about age. Maybe I will at some point.

As far as the hair dyeing goes, I always thought I would be one of those people who would never dye their hair. I started going grey in my 20s. In my 30s, people used to ask me if I had highlighted it. In my 40s, people told me it looked great and that I was crazy to color it, and I listened.

But recently, I have started coloring my hair and I am loving it. I just got to the point where I felt that the grey hair was making me look older. I have always looked younger than my actual age, and dang-it, the grey was making me look my age.

So my advice is: Do what makes you feel good.

I can still say that I'm young Not as young as last year, but way younger than I'll be next year . I'm 19 now... But not for long.

I turned 31 a couple of months ago. Ugh.

Haha, I turn 31 in 6 days. I'll officially no longer be in the age group I was in when this poll started.

--A

Spring chickens ! I turn 41 this year....I think I was mid thirties when this poll started....I forget

I am going to turn 38 this year. Like Vain, I am pretty sure I first posted my age when I was 34, then 36 and now 38.

I felt old when I was 34, which is pretty funny, because I don't feel old now.

i turn 40 next month. i have no grey in my hair, but it shows in my beard and mustache.

40 is the new 30....well that's me rationalising things

The older I get, the further away my definition of "old" is.

I'm still trying to figure out when it is that you turn into a 'serious, mature adult' that knows everything your parents seemed to know.

-The day after tomorrow.

Since I joined the Watch when I was 40, I didn't start in the earlier group. I've still got a little over 4 years before I can be accused of false advertising.

*nodding*

Less than two for that to happen to me.
I'll soon be joining ali in that top tier.

...anyway we can add an >60 group...
