    I've had sparing white hair grow ever since I went to college. Every time I'm studying hardcore for an exam, a few will pop up. I yank them right out when I find them.

    It's in the genetics how much white hair you get. Like others have mentioned, some people can start growing white hair when they're in their teens.

    basically i think it's all about hereditary and the drinking water that you have at the place where you are living in

    It should be stress coz I've already got some and I'm only 16. Oh well, blame the schoolwork.

    I think it's mainly to do with hormones and stress....which are related actually...If you get too stressed out, it crazes up your hormones in the body, hence white hair....So, maybe if you could relax more, listen to music...maybe do some facials...it'll help....If not, dye you hair to whichever colour you want is another option....

    nah....just joking!

    i think it comes from oneself....from many reasons!

    my bf has white hair at young age.
    it's heredity!
    all his family members has it! all brothers and sister and parents!

    also may be due to this thalamasia...oh, i dont know how to spell it!
    a blood disorder.... associated with skin rashes.
    the one called "dei chung hoi"....not a joke! it is really a disorder with that name!

    another reason.....i belief it has to do with stress....!
    why i say so?.....some people when they have stress, some of their hair suddenly grow curly/wavy hair(for straight hair person).
    it is bcoz something stop for awhile and on back again then stop again and on again......like the tap water when u on and off few times.
    so, when it stops, the hair curls at tat portion, when on back, it becomes straight, then off, curl again...............the result=wavy hair.

    not the whole head...just a few strands.

    so, white hair also the same.
    something stopped.....so the pigment didnt manage to get into the hair.
    so, tat strand of hand became white.

    if u become very healthy....like those ppl in MLM where they eat certain LIVE food/enzymes food or something, some of them will grow back black hair.....i saw before!

    white hair = less healthy!
    hmm....!
