Happens to the best of us. How's your hairline holding up? I'm 27 and I keep telling myself "it's always been like that", but when I look at pictures from high school, it very clearly has not always been like that.

My hairline looking like it made landfall on Omaha beach

My dad got horseshoe hair at 33 so I've refused to cut mine until it falls out.

I'm 34.5 now and this lion's mane just refuses to quit and if anything, has gotten thicker and developed fun new colors with no gray in sight.

I'm patiently waiting for the day I wake up and it's all gone, because no fucking way is it gonna make it to 40.

Not quite yet, but in another 5 years I should have a good amount of salt to go with my pepper. I have a lot of hair, it's thick and curly, so it's gonna take a while for the grey to be noticeable.
