That whole idea about stress causing grey hair is an old wives tale; grey hair has genetic causes and is therefore likely an inherited trait. My grandfather and two of my uncles, for example, all had a full head of grey hair before they were 40. At 22 I have more than my fair share and will likely carry on the family tradition; the good news is that my grandfather in his 70's still has a full head of hair, so here's hoping I inherit that gene too.
The bad news is that there's not really anything you can do short of dying it. O the bright side, grey hair can look very distinguished and dye jobs can be indistinguishable from the real deal if properly applied.
