Gray hair turning original color

[Nirokun!]

I initially wrote this for my facebook update thing but it was too long, so I'm making a thread for it on BG:

Dear Body of Mine,

Hi. How are you? I've noticed changes recently, specifically my white hair turning brown again. Are we going through any changes that I should know about? Last time (puberty) you pulled a fast one on me, so I thought I'd ask early this time. I mean, your whole plan was cool in the end, but I'd like a heads up when you start to do your own thing. It keeps me prepared. Should I start telling people to expect me to get younger or something? I don't think they'd be surprised with anything I tell them anymore. Thanks.

The person who has to walk around with you everyday,
Ni(rokun)*

(*Name changed to protect the innocent? :D)

So has this happened to anyone else? I only know of this one gray(white) hair (very easy to see just sitting there in the middle lol), and it grew in gray once, fell out, grew back in gray, and decided that it would continue growing another color (my original dark brown). I just noticed it o_o

I've begun to be more vigilant with possible hormonal changes that go on just for curiosity's sake, so I'm... curious. Has this happened to anyone else? No crazy changes in diet or lifestyle just fyi~

Ok, if you're saying that the hair in question started growing in gray and turned brown part of the way down, then you might have a mystery on your hands. However, if you just found a brown hair in the area where you're used to seeing a gray hair, then the most likely explanation is that the gray hair fell out and you're looking at one that has always been brown. I'm fairly sure that parts of hair that are already grown don't change unless you physically change it yourself, which means the entire length of the hair can't change, only what grows later on. I could be wrong.

Never happened to me. Then again, I don't have any grey or white hair at all.

When I was born, my hair was extremely blond though, and now (23 years later) its almost dark brown, although that's not quite the same thing I suppose.

Zinc can help you maintain hair color.

Also, I am pretty sure that when a hair falls out the follicle comes out too, so you didn't actually have a gray that later grew in brown. But I am not a haircoloroligist.

No no, I had my first noticeable gray(white) hair in that area that grew in gray. I kept an eye on it because it was right in the front and in the middle of the top of my forehead. It grew out fairly long, then fell out. It started growing back in gray again, then I checked it today, and the end is still gray, but now it is growing in brown. That is why it's funny

Wait, are you talking about one single thread of hair?

(I'd be devastated if my white streak of hair went back to brown)

You should sell your gene's to science.

Yes, because it's the only white hair I have

I figure me having babies would restructure the gene pool anyways <3

Same here, except closer to 25 years.

OP: Have you absorbed nectar through your head? If it grants immortality, why not recolored hair??

[BerenTebogo]

A few strands of my hair started going gray when I was like 20.
