Totally daft question, falls into the useless info category

When I dry my hair I noticed that the many, many grey hairs dry much faster than the rapidly dwindling darker ones.

Anyone know why?

As you can tell I have too much time on my hands.

Obviously the grey hairs are hollow and the water is channeled into your brain affecting the area responsible for intelligent questions. The solution to this is of course a tin foil hat with a drain out the back, I have a spare I could send you if needed

Like mine Jean.  I'm thinking the grey doesn't absorb as much water.  Bit like when I resorted to the dyeing process for awhile.  The greys just didn't want to "open up" to change.

My "grey matter" within wants to repel change too.

Gray hairs are like angels sent by the god of death - according to the teachings of Buddha.

And death is god's way of telling you to slow down

Grey hair is the crown of wisdom

Like your name by the way.

OMG, so by the teachings of Buddha I have been blessed with angels of the god of death since I was 18 years old.

My hair is all white now. Wonder what Buddah has to say about that?

Completely logical answer. Love it.

To hazard a guess, the grey also curl more rather than stay straight, sticking to together retaining moisture.

I also think the grey are dryer naturally.
