Is growing white hair at a young age normal? Recently I just pulled out 4 pieces of white hair from my head. What causes it?

White hair is caused by lack of pigmentation in the hair. If it happens at an early age there is not much you can do about it but dye it or learn to live with hit. My dad's cousin's wife had white hair all of her life and her son also developed right after high school.

Well, you havent told us your age...
But white hair can happen at any age... I am thinking here that traumatic experiences can bring it on. I used to work with a 20 year old guy that had a motorbike accident and as a result of the trauma he had a white stripe of hair sweeping across his forehead... in the days when that wasn't a fashion statement.... but then he was an ArchItect so obviously a trend setter!
Haven't seen him in years now but I think it grew out.

Usually stress or genetics..... or sometimes it means the hair follicle is dead.....you shouldn't pull them out though.... because if you pull one out 6 more will come to its funeral so dying your hair is the best bet...... at least your not balding.... :)
