I can never figure figure out which is worse for a blonde of advancing years – finding a grey hair or finding a black one.
Which is worse?

What's worse is discovering that the grey ones outnumber the blonde
i don't see how that's bad, grey hair is very distringuised.
Grey hair can look absolutely gorgeous, particularly on guys. But my hair is poker-straight, and my grey hairs are… not. The are all wiggly and coarse. I've found a couple lately, but I also found one that was so dark as to be nearly black. Which makes me more piebald than blonde.
Awww it's just a matter of being accepting of who you are.
And if it's a matter of la romance: if a guy/girl (making no assumptions) wants you only for your hair color, and not your interesting brain underneath, then pass 'em by is what I say.
You know, the original post was supposed to be just a bit humorous – grey in blonde really is very hard to spot. In truth, you only can spot true grey hairs because they are wiggly. Black is far easier to spot if one is blonde, and also more likely to make you look less blonde.
So don't worry, I am not sitting here, fretting over my hair colour. I've dyed it so many different colours over the years that it seems absurd to me to think it's still blonde after all that abuse anyways. And I am pretty sure that my boyfriend is not after me just for my hair colour.
So really, trust me, you have no need to fret on my behalf although I thank you for doing so.
