Grey hairs are just a fact of life, sorry to say. You can get a few very early on, it is fairly normal. I know that I did. I am 25 now and if I really go looking I could probably find 5-10 grey hairs. I would find them every once and a while when I was in high school. I just pull them out, and no one can see them in my thick head of hair anyway.
Don't worry about it though, it is probable that you will only have a couple here and there for quite some time to come. Then when you get older, the # of grey hairs will slowly increase. But I don't think that because you have a couple now that means you are going to have all grey hair pretty soon. It's normal.
I can understand why you are kinda freaking out though, because when I found my first grey hair I was like "I am WAY to young to see this!" LOL But no one will notice a few here or there, except maybe your hairdresser. :)

I'm 18 and have had a patch of grey hair since I was 14. It's not noticeable, but I was worried so I talked to my stylist and she said that grey or silver hair is common to come in for teens but usually only in one or two hairs not a patch like I have. It is just the result of the hair being unable to hold the color any more. We decided that the patch is a result of my hitting my head on a fireplace when I was little and having to get stitches. Don't sweat it, I actually got to the point of showing off my grey hair when others around me were freaking out about their hair. Cherish it, it doesn't mean anything other than that hair can't accept the natural color.
It's not an effect of coloring your hair either, because I didn't start until this summer.

Buy the color dark brown by revlon its about 3 or 4 dollars. Its cheap and it works great i had a mess in my hair last week it turned half blonde and orange and gray it was a mess so i bought two boxes of the dark brown by revlon and it works my hair is now dark brown and it looks way better then all that mess. I bought mine at wallgreens. Oh and dont worry about hair damage my hair is perfectly fine after dying it three times attempting to fix my hair and it didn't work til i used the dark brown hair dye and my hair is still soft and healthy looking. Just use a deep conditioner after if you'd like just in case. I got the neutrogena triple moisture deep recovery hair mask at the drugstore and its supposed to help with the damage dye might cause i heard many people raving about it on youtube so im trying it out. Iwas trying to dye my hair that was dyed dark golden blonde originally, dark ash blonde and it turned gray too so i feel ya just do what i did it worked.

You know what you should do? Not worry. It is completely and totally normal. Alot of people find maybe one grey hair in there head! Its not going to cause your whole head to turn grey! Im no scientist so i dont know why, but im sure its not something ab-normal. So just relax.

My grandfather was dark headed at 18, and totally white-headed and eyebrowed at 20...it runs in our family. I started turning white- headed at 19, and my brothers are totally white-headed now.. I still have a bit to go before I am all white. It may be hereditary... ask your parents, or talk to your grandparents! Find out how old everyone was when they started to turn gray, and you'll get an idea of when you may. Other than that, you might talk to your doctor, as loss of hair color could mean something going on in your body. Gray, or white hair is actually lack of color in the hair follicle, and illness can mess that up in normal hair.

Just because you have grey hair it dosent mean you will have all grey hair in a short while. If it starts to get bad then just color it, no big deal! I hope I helped.

The grey probably wasn't yours.It could have been stuck to her hand when she did the last person. Hair dressers really should wash their hands before moving on to another person, but maybe she was on a tight schedule.

I got my first gray hair after my friend nearly got us killed in his car. In fact that night I lost all color in my face and nearly scared myself when I saw just how pale I had become as a result of that incident. I since then concluded that trauma can cause a loss of pigmentation of the hair. I am over 40 now and I still have 95% of my natural hair color. So don't you worry your young self now.
