YES: Psoriasis cause is unknown, most often localized on the scalp, elbows, knees, etc. Eczema like contact dermatitis can set in the face if allergic to some cream.

I am 24 year old female and I have started noticing grey hairs. I have a scalp skin condition that has not properly diagnosed. But it has been treated as eczema and psoriasis before. Could this be causing premature grey hair?
