I've counted 3 so far!! Is this anything to worry about? Has anyone else's dc's got the same problem?

I'm 28 and have a few grey hairs, not enough to notice really, and DH didnt start going grey till his 40s.

My 15 yr old DS has a grey streak, probably about 0.5 cm in diameter, just above his ear. I think he has had it since he was 6/7 yrs old - it hasn't got any bigger (yet).

It may be vitiligo - v.mild by the sounds of it ?

My DH has 'grey' hairs which are just where he has no pigment in the skin.
