Is anyone premature grey?

OK, I'm paranoid. But DD, age 11, has been getting stray grey hairs for several years now. Usually only one or two on her head any any given time, but they're there, and I can't understand why. I didn't go grey until my late 40's, her father didn't get salt and pepper until he was almost 50, my father didn't go grey until he was in his late 50's and never got white hair at all. So what gives? Marjorie My mother once told me (when she found 5 grey hairs on my head when I was 27) that my premature greying occurred because I didn't eat enough vegetables. Take it for what it's worth (I thought "Geez, she's still bugging me to eat vegetables"). At 42, I'm stil at 5 grey strands of hair. Jeanne |

Is anyone premature grey?
I got my first at age 15. However, it didn't get out of control (i.e., in
need of coloring) until my late 20's. -- Melissa (in Los Angeles) Mum to Elizabeth 4/13/03 "chiam margalit" wrote in message om... OK, I'm paranoid.

So what gives? Marjorie I pulled out my first full-length gray hair when I was a month past 13. There were probably some before that but it was the first that I noticed. Now, at 9 weeks shy of 40, I'm almost completely gray in the front and salt/pepper in the back. My mom's hair has been completely white for years, she's 63 now. Leigh |
