So you can say there is no structural difference...but I simply do not have enough evidence to be swayed into believing that. I have trich too so I know a wiry grey when I feel one! Ha! Ha!

Since I dye my hair, I can't see the "gray hair"...it is kinky, thick, coarse, and wavy on the ends. My hair texture is so different then when I was younger and I spend more time on it now (i'm 45) trying to smooth the cuticle. I remember see a lady who didn't dye her long brown hair. The spattering of gray hair on her head stuck out not just because it was gray, but because it kinked out from the rest of the brown hair. It didn't lay flat like the rest of her hair, it curled at odd angles, and looked like fishing line. And I wanted to pull everyone of those hairs out of her!!
