What causes white hair?

white hair ar.. hmm
majority is genetical reasons.. so perhaps check ur family or related ones..
lack of sleep.. late sleep.. unhealthy food.. stress.. can increase chances of white hair..

 

I have a few strans of white hair n i thought it was the shampoo

 

yes stress...ive had white hair since i was 18..only me

 

Re: What causes white hair?

Not getting enough sleep, stress, not exercising, and not eating healthy foods.

 

old age n i'm guessing a lack of protein keratin...but i'm not sure i'm just guessing since keratin is what our hair is mainly made of.

 

Totally agree it would be stress

 

im happy i don't have white hair..it could be genetics too

 

how can it be genetics? everyone gets white hair eventually.

 

i've a white hairs, well i think i've it for stress and gennes, my mom told me all her family has white hair when they were young

 

I think age, stress amount, and chemical can be the factor of white hair.

 

that's so weird how everyone says stress. i mean, it'd make sense and all...... but i sometimes have some white hairs too (AND IM 16 WTF!!!) and im not stressed. ppl say im super-duper-happy-=D-ish. =\

 

lmao, you're kidding me right? xD but thats pretty interesting.

 

lmao, great theories. xD

 

Yes stress can be the cause but also genes. You get white hair because you lose keratin in the color. Keratin is mostly what makes your hair your hair.

 

age an genes

 

i think its the genes right?? oh and stress/pressure. i know a friend that has a lot of white hair...his mom says he stresses wayy too much xP

 

stress x3

 

White hair is loss of pigmentation when the hair starts developing from the follicles...a lot of things can cause this, age, stress, genetics, etc...
