What causes me to have white hair.
2007-11-11 03:06:59 · update #1
My hair is naturally black. But i just find out, i have a few strands of white hair. What the cause of that. Is it stress or lack of nutrients or lack of rest or what medical history.

White hair is caused by a few reasons. First is Albanism. Being albino usually means you have very white skin, your eyes are red (because of lack of pigments), and your hair turns white because of lack of pigment production. Although, I think you would know if you were albino. Also, some people just have lack of pigments in the hair, this is caused by a slight showing of the albino resesive gene, or even a dramatic experience. When people go through things like bad accidents or extreme losses, chemical compounds in the brain become unblanced, resulting in the stopping of pigment production in hair folicles.
Hope this helps!

Was your hair blonde before? Maybe it turned lighter? Or you know Taylor Hicks... That happened to him when he was a teenager. Maybe you could go to a hair cutting place and they could die it for you.

I had a freind in highschool who had white hair. Everyone thought it was cool. If you don't like it go to a salon and have them dye it. I like it though.

It's probably genetic.
That guy Taylor Hicks from American Idol has it too and his hair turned gray when he was 13.
my favorite teacher from last year, he's bald but he's young. he started losing his hair when he was and adolescent. i guess that's genetic too.

If it's truly white, you have albinism. It's probably just very light blond. It's genetic.

you're either albino or you have platinum blonde hair.
