White hair regrowth - is this a good sign?
My daughter has some re-growth happening. Not sure if this is a good sign and if it will all fall out again. She only has a few tiny spots where it is re-growing. Some have turned dark already and the others are just very fine peach fuzz. Is this a good sign that she will have re-growth all over her scalp?
(hopeful Mother)

Like Wise1 said, it is so hard to say, but that is generally how regrowth starts if she is going to have any. That's where I am at, some parts are turning dark while others are just chillin. But its positive in the sense that it means her hair follicles are alive and regrowth is a very real possibility. Good luck to her!

I had no head hair at one point (at that point again now for the second time) and before it grew back I got white hair all over and a lot of it but it was actually see through rather than white so from a distance you couldn't see it. It then started to turn colour - the whole process from white to coloured hair took maybe 6 months. it only then stayed for six months and has taken 6 months to then fall out again - leaving me where I am now - bald again! So there seems to be a 6 month pattern forming - or that is my hair growth cycle. hope your daughter's hair continues to grow and get stronger :-)

Thanks for sharing that information Jules. I am now at the stage of having small white hairs growing back, not all over just yet though. I was wondering how long it would take to turn into coloured hair. It's not easy having this condition, I hope you hair grows back again and that it stays! Good luck, Debbie.
