First of all the reason of this idea; my mirror recently showed me something confronting... TWO grey hairs! Assuming this proces takes sometime it'd be easy to have a device that enables you to paint the single grey hairs. Pencil shaped makes it easy to carry, but most of all the pointer can be shaped like a marker pointer what makes the paint easy and accurately applicable... hair by hair by hair by hair by hair by hair...

That's what I started doing, but I entered a new fase: I can't beat them anymore!

you can get brushes with one hair I believe

Any permanent marker close in color to your hair should suffice.

If it's worth anything, unless you're under 30, I'd wear them as a badge of honor.

Blondes don't have this problem, heh-heh. ;) I may have lots of gray hairs for all I know.

Can I get a grey marker, so that I can have a subtle air of age and harrowing experience despite my hair's (postulated) tendency to remain dark and glossy?

Greay haire gives one character. For example, I have character, whereas before - I had none.

Just dye your hair a really natural shade of jet black.

Dye your hair grey now. Years on, people will remark on how youthful you still look.

I'm 37, dirty blond, and have had *massive* grey coming in for the past couple of years, so that I have many different colors of hair going on at the same time. I get people -- all the time -- asking if it's some fancy dye job. But no, my mother and her sisters were completely grey by the time they were thirty. Wear it proud, I say! My maternal grandfather, in the casket, had an *outrageous* shock of white hair. Beats going bald...

(no offence, baldies)

could it come in other colors as well? In the summer my hair turns brown and sometimes I'll get a few strands of blonde (fyi: I have jet black hair) which I can't tolerate (no offense blondies...but have you ever seen an asian person w/blonde hair? It looks rediculous)

Mascara

I think they already have these hair pencils which you use to fill in dye jobs--those would probably work well. And Christian Dior has that hair mascara thing.
