That Is actually normal! Try to relax more and don't stress! Grey hairs at a young age are caused by stress!

Pre-mature graying can also be genetic based as well. In the meantime don't stress over it and just love your few gray hairs....think of those who have no hair at all and just wish they could be in your shoes. Besides the latest hot trend is gray hair. :)

that's about when I started getting noticeable grey regrowth... I have been dying my hair light blonde or white since I was 12 so I was THRILLED when it happened. My roots now (at 23) just look brown with scattered strands of grey, I think it will take you a long long while for it to be noticeable or prominent enough to worry about dying your hair

It's normal, I have them too lol. I think a big part of it is because my mom had them when she was young too. I am kinda worried for the future because my mom's near her mid 40s and she dyes her hair every month since she has so many. Also, stress could be a factor as to why you're getting them. As for now, I don't think you should start dying it if it's only a few.

I've had grey hair since age 11. It's pretty blatant now, lol! My children (ages 11 and 1) have them as well. I wouldn't worry about it...I think it looks pretty cool.

There was a girl in my primary school, she's in year 6 this year I think, she started growing white hairs when she was in year 3 and she had a lot of white hairs when she would do a half pony tail to her hair it would show a lot!! You are either worrying too much, you have to sleep early (like sleep properly) , drink lots of water, and drink zinc vitamins. If you worry too much about growing to much white hairs you will grow more white hairs for worrying, so don't worry too much! I got all this information off my mum because she has a couple of white hairs and she knows what to do! Hope that helped! <3

I'm 25 -- and I have a full on Rogue-from-Xmen thing going on at the front of my head. I started getting my patch of grey when I was around 10 -- it's starting to spread to the rest of my head now but the streak in the front is about an inch wide and extends from root to tip.

But I work a very stressful job - so that probably isn't helping. Time for another colour soon. lol
