At what age did you start getting white hair? Do you pick it out? Leave it? Dye it? I'm getting lots of white hair lately because of stressing in school. My mom said its bad to pick it out because it will grow more. I don't dye my hair so I just brush my hair differently. What do you do with your white hairs?

Perhaps I started to have white hair after 30 years old. And my white hair seems to grow much more after 35? As at that time my child starts to go to school and there are many things bother me. Besides the work in daytime, I will do some housework when I am home. And then I have to check his homework. If he doesn't understand it, then I have to be a teacher to teach him. Believe me, being a parent is the most tiring job in the world. And perhaps this is why I will have more white hair than before

@infatuatedbby Just feel relax to it. You are so young and only one white hair doesn't mean anything

this can happen at all ages, a friend of mine started getting grey hair in his teens and as he got older his hair was a beautiful silver grey, I don't think it is good to pull it out, better to dye it I think or maybe put highlights in your hair so it just blends in...

I started to have white hair when I was in my twenties. It was not much, but ever since then I have had my hair dyed every month. I will stop having my hair dyed when I reach after sixty when it is time I get retired. Now I am still working and I don't want white hair to be seen. It makes me feel old with the white hairs. Take care.

A few started having his grey hair at your age, and most people at the age of 50, I guess. My father in law is now turning to 75 years of age and none of his hair is gray, you see. How old we started to have white hair depends on your life style. All our food is now instant food. I guess this could be one of the causes.

hi, actually i cant remember the time that i already had white hair,i think when i was in college,maybe in that time because studies in college really stressful and that may cause of my white hair,and also there were times that my sleep was beyond 5 hours only due to i need to review for my exams.

Well, being a man, I started getting grey hair in my late 40's. I cut it short. I am not ever going to dye it. I know women think differently, and that's fine. But I think most people start going grey in their 40's.

I didn't know exactly when my hair turn grey or white hair. I knew for sure when I was still teenager. I think this case is in line with descent, nearly almost all my family member has white hair when they are still young age. I pick my white hair few times and I like the sensation when I picked them up.

Well I have been seeing one or two white hairs on my head since a long time now. And it's so strange coz there's just one or two and they stand out LOL I pull them out, but yes I;ve heard we shouldn't coz they might multiply or something
