get ur mom or sm1 to give an oil massage......mix some almond oil wid olive oil n warm it and then get a nice massage, warp ur hair into a steamed towel or leave the oil overnight... Do this once a week or twice depending on ur need, i rem my brother had this problem n he was younger thn u but it actually helped a lot!

Well sometime its heredity if you have family member that went gray at a young age there is a possibility you might go gray at a young age, if this really bothers you use a color that washes out in 12-24 shampoos.
And by the way pulling them does not make them go away.
It is also possible you body is going through some changes and this might just be a temporary thing.
My Uncle was totally gray at 17 and thats when I started getting gray hair, my son is in his 20 and he has some Grey as well.

I agree it could be stress realted or it could be genetic.
My grandmother had a white streak at one temple in her early 20's. I found my first few greys in my early 20's, and now it's more concentrated at each temple. I'm afraid I'll end up with 2 white streaks like the Bride of Frankenstein!! LOL

it's called prematured graying

usually it's because of stress, or it might be hereditary.

Certain drugs, herbs and supplements -- including vitamin E and
echinacea -- are also known to cause graying.
some suggest smoking,even second-hand smoke, causes greying but i'm not sure about that.

One common cause of gray hair also is B12 deficiency.

there are also certain diseases such as Werner’s syndrome, Böök's syndrome, Cri du Chat syndrome, HIV, AIDS, leukemia,youths receiving
chemotherapy, radiation and more, protein deficiency, altered hormone
levels, and CAD (coronary artery disease)


but i think your problem would not be that serious

thanks everyone for replying!!!

maybe it is just stress because I started my first job so maybe that has something to do with it..luckily it is in just one area and not all over my head..I think I might go buy a color to dye my hair or sumthing..

angel- thanks for that oil massage recipe I think I might give that a try!!
