Poll question: Are you old enough |
|
to pluck out gray hairs from your otherwise normal-colored scalp/beard?

24. Mine started at seventeen |
|
I lucked out. Mine is the shiny silver kind, and it looks like I had a really expensive streak job done on my used-to-be-all-dark-brown hair.
A gay friend of mine took me to his hair color stylist guy and said, "Make mine look like hers." I found that an ultimate compliment.

8. If I plucked them all I'd be cue ball bald. |

9. I've had a tiny streak of snow-white hair in my beard since ... well, since ever, actually. |
|
There's a scar under my chin in that area, and my guess is that has something to do with it. :shrug:
Anyway, other than that, no gray hairs.

14. Too much of my hair falls out on its own. I don't pluck anything off the top of my head. |

15. Old enough, but not stupid enough |
|
That's why the gods invented Clairol. Truthfully, I'm going gray in streaks, which looks pretty cool IMHO. If I plucked them out I'd be left with a bunch of bald patches: I prefer the gray to that.

No big deal. At least I have something up top, unlike some of my cousins, who either have a Dom Deluise look or a cheesy weave.

17. Round here we call it platinum blonde. |
|
Well I am blonde :)
To tell the truth I haven't seen any grey hairs on me yet. Though my son should have given me a few by now. My wife does complain about them, but then her hair is a darker brown and they're more noticeable in dark brown compared to medium to light blonde.
Mark.

18. I'm barely starting to get gray...only a few here and there |
|
but plucking them out doesn't seem to work, as they only come back twice as fast, and greater in numbers!

19. My hair is transparent, like flexible strands of plexi-glass and when... |
|
I become sexually aroused the ends light up in a million vibrant colors like fiber-optics.
Chicks dig this.
Needless to say I do not "pluck" my hair. Ever.

21. Not really the right poll answer for me - I'm 56 and no gray |
|
Even though my little sister has been gray for several years.

28. I've seen one gray hair on my head. |
|
I think it fell out because I haven't seen it in a while and I didn't pull it.
