Why are some people obsessed with dying grey hair?

Really, what is wrong with grey hair? I can't wait for my hair to turn grey, I'm 37 but look much younger and because I'm only 5feet tall people assume I'm a teenager. I have a strand or two of grey hair but I'd really like it to be more obvious so I can look closer to my age. I wouldn't care if I turned grey overnight!Why are some people obsessed with dying grey hair?
good for uWhy are some people obsessed with dying grey hair?
Some people age well, others don't. George Clooney looks good in gray, but Steven Segall would look weird. My mothers one friend leaves her hair grey, and often people remark that it makes her look evil (Think of Meryll Streep in the Devil wears Prada)


Others look friendly and Granny like.


No two people look the same, so there is no reason why everyone should be forced to stay grey, if we are able to cover it up these days.
some people can go Grey at the age of 15 and when you are that young you don't want to be Grey so you dry it and then you have to keep on top of it to look nice
if that's what you want then it's your preference, but i know i would hate it when my hair start to gray. i would definitely dye it black.
Its a vanity issue and one of insecurity, my hair is all grey now, and to be honest don't give a toss about it - its whats inside that counts!
it just depends on the individual and what makes them feel good about them selves it's all about choice
listen you are probably one of 10 peeps in the whole wide world that think that way...


to most people the colour grey impersonates ageing people (a.k.a. peeps getting older) and our grannies ... so it is not the colour hair that most women want to have... xxx
Most people look a lot older with grey hair. Like my dad, he has brownish hair but his goatee turned grey so he dyed it. It just depends on the person, everyone wants to look younger, but in your case I guess not. You're just going to have to wait :P
Because grey hair makes people look older...unless they're petite and want to show they're older like yourself. I don't like the grey colour, anywayz.
This is from a mis-guided sense that they will somehow be more or less attractive, it's silly really :-)
not everyone wants to dye their grey hair. it's the same for blondes, brunettes, red heads etc. it's just simple to go to the store and pick out something different. also, some people don't look good with grey hair. i'm thankful some people decide to dye it. i don't like seeing grandma death everywhere i look.
It's called preference. Some women want to be grey but to be honest I haven't met any. I have aunts in their 80's that still color their hair and it looks adorable not fake it's a subtle light color very light brown with strands of grey that look like high lights. I say good for them.
what's wrong is, it is not silver


if mine turn silver I'll keep it but I hate grey


and not just hair ..the colour.....
I think they're obsessed because having grey hair means you are seen as ';old'; and people therefore want to stay young and youthful so they dye their hair. Some people don't mind the odd grey hair but some are conscious of their image. But you cant hide the grey forever! Everyone has to age, that's life.
Some people just do not want grey hair. I am starting to get grey and I am 43, so right now I am dying it.
thats a good question, but i dont think you should look for the answer on yahoo, ask yourself that question good luck!
i can under stand a woman not wanting grey hair but om most men it looks cool
People don't want to look old and perceive grey hairs as making them look older and less attractive. I'm glad you are happy with the ageing process, but don't ask it to rush on - most people your age would be thrilled to look so young.
because people associate grey with old age i think. i think that silvery grey colour looks really nice. the most important thing to remember is at least you have hair no matter what colour it is
Everyone is different thats why. If I find any grey hairs I pull them out, I hate grey hairs and would hate to turn grey overnight, what a scarey thought!
Well your reasons for wanting to go grey are obvious, you have a complex about looking too young. Well unfortunately for most people, they have the opposite problem as grey hair makes them look weathered and unattractive.





I say stop complaining about looking young and enjoy because you will look like an old hag like the rest of us sooner or later. Anyway 37 is still quite young you know, so I dont know why you want to be an old lady just yet.
My wife doesn't like me to have grey hair so she has me color it after every haircut...
It is called vanity.
i have grey hair as i,m sixty and it,s not nice white hair it looks a dirty colour they call salt and pepper so i dye it
because its a sign of stress and age


most people prefer differnt hair colour anyways


we all know that grey isnt attractive


well in my eyes anyways
There's nothing wrong with grey hair, some people are comfortable with it and some not, my hair - tash and beard are turning grey and it don't bother me, its a sign that your maturing and if people don't like it that's their problem !.
I don't know why you would want to look older. I'm sure the way you dress %26amp; behave also determines how people judge you, so may that's why they think you're a teenager. I wouldn't complain! I dye my hair because its the grey is quite noticeable, but there's not enough of it to look good, if you know what I mean. :)
