I have a 17 year old sister who is spotting gray strands in her hair here and there. The roots are still black, but the tips are gray.
Is this normal? If not, what can be done about it?
My sister is worrying, so any serious help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

I saw my cousin's hair today and the ends looked gray... I got a closer look and it was just split ends. If she hasn't had a trim or haircut in a long time, maybe that's what it is. Split ends are easy to spot, if you don't already know. Just take a strand or more that looks gray on the end and see if the end is split. Simple, huh? If it really is gray, then the only thing I can think of is dying it.

Hair turns gray from the roots out= not the tips first= did someone dip her hair in gray= or does she just need a good trim?? or did the sun do that??

If the roots are still black, then she isn't going gray. Suggest that she get her hair trimmed and she will look fine again!

if it is just the ends, then it is probably just fading hair color. don't start to really worry until they roots are gray. it can be normal, some people start have gray hair very young, but i don't think it is that for your sister, don't damage it as much, and keep it really healthy.

if they are true grey hairs they will be gray from root to tip. maybe she needs a trim to get rid of split ends

There;s nothing that can be done except dying it. Anderson Cooper on CNN is completely silvery gray and he's only in his thirtys. it happens.

It's most likely genetics! The only thing I can tell you to tell her to do is dye it. Or just get a trim.
