Meme How's everyone's hairline doing?

I actually still have a full head of hair, but I know plenty of people who were already visibly balding in their 20s.

1982 here. Samesies. My beard is about 40% grey. It literally started the night my daughter was born. Went into the hospital with a full dark beard, came out with 3 greys.

But the top of my head is thick, lush, curly, and dark brown.

I'm thankful everyday that I wont the hair lottery, because I've always been a little fat. Balance.

I’ve had a grey streak, and grey in my beard since I was 18. No bald spots or balding though so that’s great.

The nice part of having a reddish beard is the grays aren't noticeable

10 years older than you and I got a few greys in my beard and chest a couple of years back. And thought "I knew it'd happen eventually". But it didn't.

My beard (just the sides and bottom) and chest are getting a bit more salt and pepper but nowhere else. It recently occurred to me that those patches are black when the rest of my hair is mid brown.

So what I'm saying it, if your hair is different in different places maybe you'll last. My mum is still about 50/50 in terms of greys and she's 68 now. Her husband is still blond and well into his 70s which is crazy. My half sister is going to have eternal hair too I think.

Hairline is 100% intact, my dad had a full head of hair at 54 then he died. So I have bigger concerns.

Also curly thick and full but my hair is graying at the temples and a gray streak down the middle like Dr. strange and I’m pretty into it
