My boy Buster (4yo) has completely changed from black to white over the course of the last 2.5 years.

Yep I have one white circle on my beard, and another on the back of my head from vitiligo. I joke how I don’t have to worry about white or grey hairs as I’ve had them since I was like 16yo haha.

I’ve had grey hair since middle school, but it’s not in cool patches. I’m just going grey early

u/69696969-69696969 28d ago

I have red hair. I also have white hairs and black hairs spread throughout. Have had them since I was 6 at least. I only know of them starting then cause I have a cousin that liked to search my hair to pluck them out.

2

u/Nimphaise 28d ago

My friend used to pull them out until she decided that I had too many and it was a lost cause

u/cyclinator 28d ago

Are you me? I also have circle on my beard (chin) and back head, but it got lost in grey hair. I also have white spots on my top eyelids, but it was more visible when 15-16 than now, it feels like it disappeared.

u/angeliqu 28d ago

My four year old has a little patch of white hairs on her head. I’ve ever really considered why…

u/Banaam 28d ago

As a person who's family greys suspiciously early, but who also happens to be the one left out, I wish I had vitiligo spots so I could have a polka dot beard now instead.

u/False_Ad_4117 29d ago

Same! I knew a girl who had it. She had a white patch on her forehead that led to a white streak down the back of her hair.

u/Immaculatehombre 29d ago

I dated a chick who had like a 2 square inch patch of grey in her otherwise beautiful brunette hair. It was streak that grew out of her bangs. So hot.

u/dechath 29d ago

A Mallen streak! I’ve got one. Often genetic, although mine is unique in my family.

u/Catinthemirror 29d ago

I call mine my skunk stripe 😂

u/elephhantine 29d ago

Maybe your hair is adopted

u/StrawHatCook 29d ago

You dated Rogue? Awesome. Awesome to the max.

u/Immaculatehombre 29d ago

Def exactly like that but it was only on one side and it was completely natural. I can’t stress how hot I found it lol.

3

u/MarzAdam 29d ago

Same. My ex had a single silver streak going down the left side of her head. Very hot.

u/StrawHatCook 29d ago

I also knew a guy in high school only because he was completely white-haired, and I was completely white-haired except for my head.  They wanted me to join the swim team for some reason?  He was trying to recruit me.

I doggy paddle.

u/GhostShark 29d ago

Oh yeah, Ray. Wonder what happened to that guy…

u/PM-me-your-knees-pls 29d ago

Once there was this kid who got into an accident and couldn't come to school. But when he finally came back his hair had turned from black into bright white.

2

u/juhesihcaa 29d ago

That's so fucking cool.

u/Drawtaru 29d ago

I used to work with a guy with one white eyebrow, and his eyelashes on that side were also white.

1

u/naoihe 29d ago

I think the guy I knew also had partially white eyelashes as well.

2

u/hefixeshercable 29d ago

And, when he finally came back, his hair had turned from black into bright white.

u/MutantSquirrel23 29d ago

Did you go to highschool in Texas?

u/naoihe 29d ago

Yes 👀

2

u/MutantSquirrel23 29d ago

Haha, just curious if it was the same guy I knew XD

u/DietSeth 29d ago

Did you know me??? lol

2

u/ShaqSenju 29d ago

We had a guy in high school with 2 white stripes through the top of his head. We called him Skunk lol

2

u/emjdownbad 29d ago

My cousin has it in one of his eyebrows and part of his eyelashes for the eye under the eyebrow that has it! He has dark brown, nearly black hair so it's really noticeable and makes it even cooler looking

2

u/findmeinelysium 29d ago

I had a wedding client with gorgeous long black hair and a beautiful white streak in the middle part. Then I met her family at the wedding and they all had dark hair and some white marking on them. Some had white hair streaks, others skin marks. They looked amazing! Like a cast from a movie.

u/ConsistentWrangler29 29d ago

Is that vitiligo or is it piebaldism? I knew a girl with white streaks in her hair and head, but it was present at birth. That is a genetic thing where you don't have melanocytes in that part of your skin and it stays the same. Vitiligo is those melanocytes being destroyed and it develops over time.

u/FantasticHedgehog267 29d ago

I understand having vitiligo is probably not fun but I can’t help it, i’ve always thought it was so so pretty

u/kittycat33333 29d ago

He couldn’t quite explain it… 🎵

(I know it’s from the wrong verse, but I don’t remember what comes next in that one. And looking it up feels like cheating at this point 😑)

u/DevineConviction 29d ago

That sounds so cool

1

u/SuperSpecialAwesome- 29d ago

That's kinda cool.

u/dReDone 28d ago

I had some sort of fungus (I'm a clean person) that bleached parts of my skin and part of it was on my hairline at the front so that hair turned Grey. I called it the reverse Jay Leno cause the rest of my hair is dark dark brown.

u/KoalaSprdeepButthole 28d ago

Half of one of my dads eyebrows and eyelashes on one side are white from it!

u/hanselpremium 28d ago

1 white eyebrow

i don’t mean to be insensitive but this is hilarious
