That link explains why hair turns grey. Here is one passage:

People can get gray hair at any age. Some people go gray at a young age - as early as when they are in high school or college - whereas others may be in their 30s or 40s before they see that first gray hair. How early we get gray hair is determined by our genes. This means that most of us will start having gray hairs around the same age that our parents or grandparents first did.

Some people think that a big shock or trauma can turn a person's hair white or gray overnight, but scientists don't really believe that this happens.
