I don't think that's normal.  All the older girls I know have a full head of hair.  Some of them may turn white but they don't lose hair other than your normal hairfall in the shower.  You may have alopecia. Or it could be a symptom of something else. Go check with your doctor.

Simply that baldness is a sign of virility and acne is a sign of worry.  There may be other assumed conditions that apply, but I see that your looking for the simple answer.

There are many reasons for hair fall,stress,bad diet,nutritional,vitamin and protein deficiencies,hormonal imbalances,diseases,thyroid and adrenal problems,as well as autoimmune diseases can all cause hair shedding.After an illness,fever or childbirth many experience hair fall,but the hair is quickly replaced with new growth once the body goes back into balance.\n\nHave a complete physical checkup with your doctor to rule out any organic causes of hair fall.Eat a good diet that has enough protein,and vitamins in it,plenty of vegetable,nuts,eggs,pulses,lentils, dals,chicken,fish are all good sources of protein and vitamins,eat lots of green vegetables.Take a multi-vitamin and b-complex,massage your scalp daily,treat your hair gently and use natural hair washes or shampoos and avoid all chemicals reaching the scalp.Reduce stress,get exercise,pure water and pray.

No, it shouldnt cause you to grow more white hairs. If you continually dye your hair, you just might not realize how much white hair you have until you grow it out. But it doesnt mean your hair dye caused it.\nTrust me...I dye my hair ALL the time! :) \nYou should be safe unless you have any allergies etc.\nCheers Girl! :)

Good question.  I believe that it's hereditary.  My Dad was completely white before he was 18.  I started to get white hair at the temples when I was 13.  My two daughters had a few white hairs in their teens.

I wonder that you haven't taken an appointment with your doctor, yet!\nThis is an alteration to the hormonal balance of your body.\nI don't know how old are you but in any case your doc will prescribe you a series of exams to do and find out what's the problem. In the meanwhile try to be quiet, as anxiety will agravate the situation.\n\n*EDIT*\n\nYou didn't come back to give any additional information, so I thought that it will useful for you to have a look to the following site\nhttp://womenshealth.aetna.com/WH/ihtWH/r.WSIHW000/st.41823/t.42853.html\nThere are a lot of sites in the internet that you can visit and educate yourself, this is a valid one and you can explore it. \nSee also what are the Recommended health screenings and prevention steps for your age and then get an appointment with a phycisian who will prescribe to you all the necessary tests to do and SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM.\n\nKaterina

Sometimes the growth of new hair can have this effect. Also, using any personal products such as certain deoderants can cause an allergic reaction (even if you have been using the same brand for years!). Your best bet is to not stress since you will be seeing the doctor soon. Only someone well qualified who has seen the condition can tell you what it is!

it is a mixture of stress, genetic link and biologically changes in your body, your dietcan also influnce it! I started balding at 19, (my grandad was bald by 18 so i've done well!) My girlfriend also is greying and shes under 30, but she does stress out a lot.

Don’t worry if it isn’t excessive hair loss, it’s just part of a normal function of your body.\n\nIf the symptoms are acute you should probably visit you’re physician. Hair loss can be triggered by many factors: stress, hormonal changes or dysfunctions, taking some substances (legal or illegal).\n\nLong hair usually falls in larger amounts.\n\nIf you're not receiving chemo why do you post your question in the cancer section?

Most women suffer excessive hair thinning at some time in their lives. Often it follows child-birth and occasionally an illness. Stress can induce hair loss as can dieting or a poor diet generally. \n\nChanges in the hormone levels in the body causes some thinning of the hair in more than half of all women in this country and still more have hair loss in the form of breakage due to the use of poor quality hair products. \n\nIn many cases it is temporary and the hair will grow back normally without, any help. In others, however, the excessive hair fall, if not treated, will lead to permanent baldness. \n\nSo it is vital that the cause of the problem is discovered and the disorder corrected \n\n\nHAIR LOSS CAUSED BY HORMONAL IMBALANCE \n\nBy far the most common type of hair loss experienced by women is that caused by the effect of certain hormones upon the hair \n\nThese hormones enter the hair cells and pre-vent them from growing as well as they should, this results in the characteristic thinning on the front and top of the scalp. The scalp begins to grow finer hairs and the scalp becomes more visible. There is usually a general loss of "condition" resulting in the hair becoming lank and difficult to control. \n\nThis form of hair loss affects 10% of women between the ages of 18-40, 25% by the age of 50 and a staggering 60% by the age of 70. In many women it is a minor problem and is easily disguised, but other women find it very distressing and lose their self confidence and self esteem. \n\nIn the past nothing could be done to prevent this problem occurring but now there are substances which can stop the hair from thinning and can produce a better quality of hair in most women. The treatment consists of using a very low level (and perfectly safe) hormone cream and lotion which are applied externally to the affected region of the scalp. \n\nAs with most disorders, the earlier the treatment is started the better the results are likely to be. Approximately 30% of people visiting the Trichological Centre are women who suffer from this hair loss problem. \n\n\n\nIn virtually every case the hair loss is stopped and the hair growth greatly improved. It is a safe and inexpensive method of combating an all too common and distressing problem. \nA hair in the follicle. Close up of the bulb showing cellular activity \n\nDIET AND HAIR LOSS \n"We are what we eat," as the saying goes. This is particularly true when it comes to our hair. our hair is affected by what we eat, or do not eat. At the Trichological Centre we constantly see the results of poor diets and crash dieting. \n\nBasically, hair has no useful function. The body can work just as well whether it has hair or not. So if the body is short of any nutrient, protein, mineral, iron etc; it will divert these from the hair to nourish the more important body organs. The result can be a Diffuse Hair Loss \n\nLow iron levels (which may not be true clinical iron anaemia) can cause a marked thinning of hair and women are more susceptible to this because of the loss of iron in the blood due to menstruation. Vegetarian diets can cause hair loss unless specific attention is given to the balance of proteins and iron rich foods. \n\nThe best advise for producing healthy hair is eat a well balanced diet, of protein, carbohydrates and minerals. Go easy on processed and convenience foods. \n\nA Trichologist can help you in this area by making sure there are no specific foods in your diet which are causing problems. \n\nSTRESS RELATED HAIR LOSS. \n\nStress is blamed for causing all types of problems, some times this is true, sometimes it is not. We all suffer from "highs and lows," in our lives. It is important that body stress levels are kept as low as possible. It may not be possible to remove the cause of our stress but there are ways that we can learn to cope with it successfully. \n\nHair loss and stress are inexorably linked. \n\nThere is reasonable scientific e

I would talk to a doctor about it, it could be related to tension and stress...

It's normal with aging.  As you get older the hair on your head decrease but in places like eyebrows, ears, nose, and often times the back as well, the hair increases.  I am not really sure of any reason other than nature

I was going to say stress but if you are not stressed than that couldnt be it.  Early menopause could be the issue.  Its unusual but not impossible.
