As you get older, you lose the pigmentation in your hair (causing it to turn grey).. and you can also lose some in your skin as well, giving it a somewhat grey appearance.. As with hair, it is different for everyone. :)

The hair on my chest is almost all gray yet the hair on my head, of which I still have most of it, is still pretty much the original color with a few gray strands, but not many. Not complaining though. I like having my head of hair but not going to dye it when it does change. As long as the aging process isn't overnight, I don't mind it. I do notice changes in how my joints work. They're stiffer in the morning or if I've been sitting at the computer.

Yes, but body hair grays later than scalp hair, especially the back and upper arms, being shielded from direct sunlight. Your pubes will also gray very very gradually. I would consider going bald down there though -- it's very stylish, a conversation piece for lovers, and more hygenic too. Serious !!

Normally, all body hair will slowly go white as the inkwell goes dry. Nasal hair. Armpit hair. Pubic hair. Eyebrows. Eyelashes. Ear hair. Finger hair. Toe hair. Head hair seems to start going white first though, in most people. Part of the reason why old people start to look a bit faded out is because their various natural hairs (eyelashes, eyebrows) are no longer colored.

Everyone is different. It may change with the top But then it may not change til much later. But why worry? Age is nly a matter in one's head. You are as young or old as you feel. My dad always told me that.

That's a good question. I thought your body hair stayed the same color, but I guess, from what people above me have said, it does change...ewww. =P
