A member asked:

At what age is normal for gray hair to appear on chest and other parts of the body?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Rarely in teens: This probably starts most commonly in the 40's but can start at quite a young age in some individuals. Sometimes there is a family tendency for early graying.
