Yikes! My first grey hair

So I've posted on HTN about my successful hair transplant, which I am very happy with...

but last weekend I celebrated my 32nd birthday in Las Vegas.. as I was getting ready to go out and was putting wax in my hair, I noticed a non-pigmented hair. Wishfully, I thought it was my dog's hair that traveled with my on the 4 hour trip to Vegas, but as I looked closer in order to cut it, I realized it was my FIRST GRAY HAIR EVER.

 

What the hell?

 

I spent all this money on a hair transplant and now I have to worry about going gray???

 

Has anybody had this problem?

 

How do I know if this is a transplanted hair or a native hair? Does it matter?

 

What should I do? How quick does this spread?

 

Before, I had the hair loss to worry about now I have to worry about the graying as well...

 

I'm getting sick and tired of worrying about hair ALL THE TIME... just when I thought it was under controlllll.. ughh.

I've been slowly greying in some areas since my mid 30's, haven't dyed it.

But dyeing the grey hairs should not be an issue, just don't yank them out like some people do! lol

go dense or go home

At ~$4 a graft I never would yank them out!

But then again, don they say that for every gray hair you pull out 2 more grow in its place? That's like free hair multiplication right there--- save $$ on transplant haha.

I love my grey. Wish I had more. You can always dye it if it is that big of an issue.
