Raven Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I wouldn't think so. I found an unexpectedly long white hair on my right arm, longer than any black hair on both arms. That made me raise an eyebrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inactive Account Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 On the other hand, there's probably nothing horribly wrong with you; weird stuff just happens sometimes. If, on the other hand, you're graying at 17 and calling everything "phony"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 That's not normal at all. I can't know in truth without a picture, but it's probably nothing. I had a similar scare for about a month when I was seventeen that the hairs on my arm were turning white, one by one. In fact it was just that I was starting to tan to the point where the skin on my arms was darker than the hair, which it still is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnell Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) I don't think it's "normal", but I don't think it's anything to worry about. I have an uncle that I'm told started balding in college, so it's not like that stuff never happens. And IIRC, every guy's hairline starts to slowly recede at puberty. So technically, it's happening to everyone, just at different rates. Edited June 10, 2010 by Ragnell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freohr Datia Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I know this girl whose hair does this every now and then, but it wasn't a normal type of thing. It was... idk, it was something. idk if it was something hereditary or a disease or whatever. Whenever her hair did this though, while it is not allowed otherwise, the school let her wear bandanas to hide it whenever it happened. So... I don't think it's normal.

Fireman Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 ...to have a thinning hair line at age 13. I'm really getting freaked out. I wouldn't say it's completely in the norm, but I personally wouldn't worry about it too much. Just give it some time. See what shakes. If, on the other hand, you're graying at 17 and calling everything "phony"... Ho ho ho... I know this girl whose hair does this every now and then, but it wasn't a normal type of thing.

My 10th grade physics teacher was balding in college too. ... Obviously your uncle was my physics teacher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lolDeath Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 No it's not normal. Has anyone else in your family started going bald young? I kind of thought mine was too the other day though, until I realized that I had just pulled a bunch of my hair out. Maybe you did that.

kryptonite Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I wouldn't think so. I found an unexpectedly long white hair on my right arm, longer than any black hair on both arms. That made me raise an eyebrow. I get that too. I had one on my chest and one on my face... As for balding at 13, of course it's possible. In high school I knew 2 people who were balding...

peener weener Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 My aunt has a line of white hair on her forehead, and so does a guy from school. My aunt's had it since a child, too. Nothing big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau of Isaac Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 I wouldn't say it's too horrible. I already have some small greying in an area on my head, and a pal of mine has a full on portion of his hair that is completely white. I can't see thinning being too much worse than that. Maybe. >__> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
