I've had brown hair my whole life and it suddenly went orange – my doctor has no idea but people have their theories | The Sun

A YOUNG woman’s hair has started going ginger in places despite never dying her hair before.

Social media personality Ellie Bellie started noticing a change in her locks in December last year.


Over the course of three months, sections of her brown have turned orange.

The 19-year-old took to Tik Tok to share her experience but people aren’t sure what to think.

Ellie revealed that she went to the doctors to get an answer on her new hair… but said “literally nothing happened”.

Updating her intrigued followers, she said: “The doctor was like, ‘I have never seen that before in my life’.

Ellie said that she wasn’t going to worry about her new look.

She continued: “You know what, if it grows and I turn [ginger], that’s just who I was meant to be I guess.”

However, her viewers have a host of theories on why it is happening to her.

Many believe it is Poliosis – a condition that changes a section of your hair colour, usually to white or grey.

According to Healthline: “Poliosis is when a person is born with or develops a patch of white or grey hair while otherwise maintaining their natural hair colour. 

“It can affect both children and adults. 

“Poliosis alone can’t seriously harm your health, and it can be covered up with hair dyes, hats, or bandanas if you’re uncomfortable with it. 

“But poliosis can sometimes co-occur with serious conditions.”

Others believe it is less sinister than a condition and might have something to do with Ellie’s new ear piercing. 

One supporter of this theory weighed in: “she's using a salt water spray to clean it given by the piercer.

“I'm thinking the fallout from the spray gets in her hair and the sun does the rest.”

As Ellie lives in Australia, it’s plausible that the sun could be a contributing factor in her new look. 

One woman believed it could be a side-effect of having Covid-19.

She said: “I would see a dermatologist.
