It just happens in some people and is called alopecia areata.  Let me guesss
that you also have soe thinning of the hair also.

It can also be caused by:

   * a hormonal imbalance (hypo or hyperthyroid or other)
   * diabetes
   * anemia
   * systemic lupus erythematosus (butterfly rash on face)
   * poisoning (X-rays, pesticides, lead, mercury)
   * thrush
   * kidney or liver problems

No

Stress can cause it.

Liver problems can cause it.

I have a stepsister that got white hair at 16 years old. This was
inherited as her Mother had the same problem at a young age too.
She has 4 sisters and none of them inherited it.

As she is older now, her MD told her she has a high Mercury count. She
had to replace the Amalg (silver) fillings in her teeth.
