To be honest, I tried several ways to give Elvis gray hair, and wasn't too thrilled with the first outcome posted. Found some pouffy gray hair, lost the glasses, and first warped the entire 'wig', then took just a selection and warped it by itself. In this closeup, you might see some age lines I had added.
