    I am only 15 and I have gray hair all over my head, its starting to sprout everywhere. Why is this happening. I am a nervous type person and some people say its the stress but I figured maybe one or two but its everywhere and its getting worse. Can someone explain to me why this is happening, am I dying, or in bad health.

    some people just go gray early. if you're really worried, ask a doctor.

    i have a little gray patch that i've had since about 7th grade...it hasn't spread since then.

    It's perfectly normal. If you're worried about it, just dye it. I kinda like mine...probably since its only one little part of my head...and everyone else thinks its cool.

    Is your hair black, by chance? I think most black haired people end up graying at some point...i dont think i've ever seen an old person with black hair.

    I went to school with a guy that had a head full of gray hair by the time he was 17.
    And, one kid started going bald in grade 9.
    It's just your genes.

    Hell no, you're not dying. But Spooner is right. Steve Martin Commedian has silver hair. (NOT to be confused with Gray.) Ask your Doc.

    Its perfectly normal. I went to school with someone who started going gray early into high school. It wasnt stress, it just ran in his family, I wouldnt worry about it, some girls might find it attactive :)

    Patrick Stewart starting losing all his hair at like 18-19 I think it was. Maybe it was a good thing. I don't think he would be the same captain picard if he had hair. So maybe its a good thing that your hair is going gray!

    I personally wouldnt worry about it, my hair is greyish, never really bothered me, im much more worried about going bold...

    Maybe you'll snag all the great jobs earlier than all of your friends.

    yeah man, it's just genetics. my grandpa started turning white his senior year of highschool. shit happens. my girlfriend has been finding the occasional white hair in my head, and i've got to say, it has me worried. i mean, i freaking love my hair. but, hey, at least i'm not going bald. dying hair is alot easier and cheaper then buying a wig.
