We all know elvis dyed his hair black. But judging from this photo, I'm wondering when he started going grey...
Anyone else know of photos where you can clearly see the grey coming through, please post.

Elvis dyed his hair regularly until the time of his death...

That would be a excellent question for Larry Gellar
I would say he would be the best person to answer this question for us.

Larry Gellar? Who's he the guy that dyed his hair? You know, I have to say, I never even realized Elvis had grey hair until I saw that picture. I figured he was still his natural color (blond/brown?) under the dye until 77 .. I'm sure there's people that know the answer to this. And as long as I'm on the subject of Elvis' looks.. Was there any point where his eyebrows were drawn on? I've seen a few photos where his eyebrows look fake. Though, I'm certainly no make-up expert!
Also, I want to mention, I don't mean to dissect every single aspect about the man. But I guess I can't feel bad about it. Since there's like 2,000 forums on the internet talking about every breath and movement the man ever made..
Hair dresser and spiritual advisor.
From what I'm reading in my Elvis book,it says that Charlie Hodge dyed Elvis' hair for him approximately every three to four weeks and washed and styled it before every show.Elvis even said to Hodge,that if he ever went bald,Charlie would be fired.
The One and Only King of Rock'n'Roll.
Its mentioned from the MM that elvis' hated to bathe in his later years but every single night made sure his hair was taken care of and washed...

That's funny what book is that from?
I noticed some pictures where you see a whole strip of white line, where his hair was growing in. Other than his eyes being like Gladys', I think he took after Vernon.
The book is Elvis His Life From A to Z by Fred L.Worth and Steve D.Tamerius.
Didn't Priscilla say the samething in her book too? That Elvis hated to shower as well.
I have that book somewhere. Regarding Priscilla's book, I wouldn't take any of it serious. I doubt she even wrote it. She probably just told the story to someone and they type up all B.S. to make her look so sweet innocent.
I read from ,the Revelations book that the shower problem only happened in Elvis' last two years, so how would Priscillass know?
Somebody find that picture!
Its very evident elvis used eye liner alot even in july 1975.
Check out the photos from July 20th 1975 Norfolk Virigina.
After he stopped using it in 1976-77 it made his eyes look really bad, like he was ill.

He started graying in the mid 60's,i said around the time of Harum scarum .

I doubt there will be many pics of Elvis's gray hair simply because he didnt go out like that.
