20yo f, no signs of white hair yet. while looking in the mirror i spotted a very thick 1inch single strand of white hair growing out of my earlobe!!?

Variation: Think of it as a whisker. Many people have patches of hair a different color. A stray white hair is often straighter and thicker than the usual hair texture and should not be of concern.
