Your hair will not go white overnight from shock. Hair is only alive at the roots, therefore the color will not change beyond the root.

No way. If (men) go gray that's good because they won't go bald before their time. No, your hair can not change "white" overnight by shock or frightened. White or gray hair is color loss and that comes with aging.
stay well.

My uncle went white when he was 16 over the course of a few days after my grandad died.
People don't believe me when I tell them, but he did. It was shock, stress and worry as he had to deal with his dad's death and his exams - which he passed with flying colours!
