Sticking to my theory about the women.

I think the white of the mellotrons causes grey hair - the colours are very close.
 
Let's ask David Cross to apply the grecian formula?

Uh oh, I'm in the same boat.  Not the Tron though, its proximity to vacuum tubes in Fenders.  They suck the follicles right out of you.

I have recently noticed that my hair has started to thin and turn a bit gray. I have noticed other Mellotron owners with what appears to be the same affliction. So I'm beginning to think that if you have a Mellotron long enough, this is likely to happen. Back in 2002 when I first acquired a Mellotron in the modern age, I had more hair and no gray. When I was young I had one, but only for a short time so it didn't have a chance to cause any changes. Over the last several years I have been pretty much surrounded by them and my hair seems to be thinning and turning gray. There has to be a correlation.
