Today, I was shocked to notice that my hair has started growing out entirely silver, supposedly due to pregnancy. I'm 19. Apparently, according to my aunt, "It runs in the family." FML

Today, I noticed several grey streaks in my hair while putting it in its usual combover. I'm only 18 years-old, and my hair was once one of my greatest sources of pride. FML

Today, as a 17-year-old, after having gone to the doctor to about some unusual hair loss, it turns out I simply have crappy genetics, and should expect to be fully bald within a year. FML

Today, I realized how bad my grey hair problem has gotten as I noticed I had grey pubes. I'm only 23. FML

Shedding

Today, I found out, after having my third and last child, that I'm balding. I'm only 23 and quite frankly It's very much noticeable. How did I find out? My four-year-old daughter pointed it out to me, saying, "Mommy, why you shed like the dog?" FML

Today, at almost 26 years old, my beard is finally coming in. Too bad it, like the hair on my head, is 50% grey already. FML

Today, at 21 years of age, my doctor confirmed that I am, indeed, going bald. It wouldn't be such a bad thing, even expected, if I wasn't a woman. FML

Today, I decided I wanted to bleach my hair, so I asked my mother for help. Apparently, something went wrong, because clumps of my hair started falling out. Now I'm half blonde and half bald, and my mom is just laughing at me. FML

Today, I went to see a doctor because I have been experiencing hair loss. He insisted on a pregnancy test. My parents then grounded me. I'm a virgin. FML

Embrace it. My brother went silver at 15. He made it work for him. The chicks go bananas.

Could be worse: what if female balding ran in the family?

Congrats on the pregnancy OP, good luck and I hope you and your baby have a healthy and happy pregnancy! Don't listen to the haters, at 19 it's your choice and I'm sure you can do it! Rock that silver hair, what makes you special is the things that are different. xoxo

Pregnant at 19? Oh boy. Hope you are married and plan to put life on hold for a while.

Why? She doesn't *have* to be married to be a good mother. For all we know, she might even be planning to put it up for adoption, in which case she won't be putting life "on hold". You have no idea what her situation is, so don't be so quick to judge

While some teen moms don't succeed our government helps them A LOT! I'm an adult with no children and I can't afford my own place and student loans are killing me. But if I had gotten knocked up 10 years ago school would have been paid for and I would have discounted living opportunities! All without having to file for welfare or have food stamps! F my life!

I wouldn't worry, OP. It's just a hair colour. :) Embrace it - I know quite a lot few young women who spend heaps of money to get silver put in their hair (apparently it's something of a trend in my town). I started going silver at 17 - not due to pregnancy, it's just my father's genetics showing through. My paternal grandmother was fully grey by the time she was 30 (my current age). I just have a 'Pepe Le Pew' streak at this point. I've always thought it was pretty.
