Some people's hair does not go grey because of genetics. Genes can affect the production of melanin, the pigment that gives hair its color. If a person's genes allow for more melanin production as they age, their hair may not turn grey.

Why does hair color change with age?

Actually, it isn't just the roots that turn white or go grey, but the entire hair shaft as it grows. As we age, our body stops producing the pigment that gives our hair its color, causing it to turn grey. This is usually a gradual process, but sometimes happens much more quickly for others. Some people also grey prematurely, which is hereditary. Many people even begin going grey as early as their teens. Going grey also happens with animals; look at an older dog and you will see the grey most prominently on their face.

What do you call that curly thing in the back of you head?

Having just now looked at some humans, I am unable to detect any curly thing in the back of their head. Perhaps if you clarified what you mean? == == If I get what you're referring to, it's called a "whorl" and is that point where your hair pattern goes in sort of a whirlpool-like pattern. You'd see it more clearly in people who's hair is quite short. Not everyone has a very obvious one, and some have whorl that goes clockwise while others go counterclockwise.
