    Help...i've been getting a few white hair here and there. MY fiance been pulling them out but I heard it will grow back 10x the amount. So he pulled out 3 and that means i might be getting 30 strands of white hair soon ...........

    anyone knows?

    yes.. it depends on your genes... the genes control how many and when they will show up

    tats a tough ques. nid some scientific theory to prove it .
     
  10. lol wtf?? I don't think that's even possible for hair to multiply like that... it'll probably just stop growing.. then you'll be bald pulling so many out..

    if pulling out white hair = 10x the hair growth.. how many people do you know who's got long full head of hair??
     
  11. if you pull them all out at the same time it grows back gold so you become super sayajin, dont take my word for it though

    You're going to get more white hairs as you get older, so pull them out while you still can. You might of won this battle but your white hairs have already won the war

    myth, :p pulling out white hair doesn't give u more.

    it can be hereditary, stress/anxiety, malnutrition, and age that causes white hair i think.

    well i pulled out my white hair and then i found more white hair. when you mean grow out do you mean "come out of the roots" grow out or the black strands of hair whitening. For the most part I see that my white hair is changed from black to white.
