14 Year Old With Grey Hairs!?

Question

I'm 14 years old and a few nights ago I found another grey hair. It isn't the first one I've found (Probably the 8th...) and I have a feeling it won't be the last.
What's happening to me?
My mum is 50 years old and she's never had a grey hair in her life.
My friend said I'd be fully grey by the time I turn 30, is this true?
Why is it happening so young and what can I do to stop it!?

Answer 1

I have a family member (by marriage) who was fully grey by the time she was 22. Her kids today are both fully grey, but they didn't get so until their mid 40's.

Just remember this:
What is grey
stays....

So, it's a good thing for males. Means that no balding would occur in those areas. If it bothers you too much, check with your folks and see if they'd be ok with you going to a beauty parlor and having your hair bleached or dyed (could be altered to your natural color, too ). It's really not a big deal. Some people really look fantastic in grey hair.

Answer 2

Gray hair is actuallly not gray at all it just has no color...
graying early can be hereditary/dna...even though you dont immediately see another family member with this, doesn't mean its not in the past...
another reason is shock...sometimes when we hear something horrible and shocking, it causes a gray clump to remain...
injury is another reason....either way...it may be permanent...
and as for pulling them out and them doubling...thats just not true...otherwise all sorts of people would be getting more hair....and not need wigs..or hair replacement....
also it takes a lot of pullling to damage the growth possibliities by pulling themout....
so since you have millions of hair that are not gray...i wouldn't get in a tizzy over just that few...perhaps if you get over it it will not get all over you...
and if you are graying earlly there is nothing that will stop it...but there is Loreal...but that too is a problem since you already have something going on and the constant chemicals will only add to your hair problems...and to some skin problems as well...so try not to worry it will make you special...

Answer 3

There is a condition where you have some grey hair. A girl I know has a grey chunk of hair. If you have seen the show what not to wear of TLC, stacey london, the lady on the show, has a grey part in her hair she has had since she was a young girl.

Answer 4

Hair grows white when the color pigment (melanin) ceases to be produced in the hair follicle and small air spaces take its place. To check graying of hair, mix lemon juice in olive oil, beat till frothy and apply on scalp and wash off after an hour. Premature graying of hair can be postponed by using a strong decotion of black tea and a tablespoon of salt, strain and apply to the roots for 45 minutes and wash with water. Don't shampoo.

Answer 5

I've been gray since I was about 20. I died it until I was 30 and then gave up. Now am quite happy being gray.

Nothing you can do - don't sweat it!

Answer 6

It's prob genetics or some DNA problem. I do not think their is any thing you can do about it. Do not pull them out because soon you'll be bald! You could wake up with your whole head gray.

Answer 7

i think it is heredity maybe in your dad side of the family just check your hair once a week and trim it short. i don't know about the saying it grows back double if you pull it out so pull if you want to and don't worry so much about it .
