In [[Real Life]], white hair indicates either age, bleach, or albinism. Not so in fiction, where white hair can occur naturally on women of any age. For a given value of "natural", that is: white locks tend to mark their owner as special in some way. Maybe her hair is indicative of some spiritual (or outright magical) qualities, or maybe it's a hint of a nonhuman background. At the most mundane, it suggests [[Wise Beyond Their Years|wisdom beyond her years]]. It is a common mark of a [[Mysterious Waif]].

* Sylvie Lumiere from ''[[Baccano!]]'', although it doesn't seem to be held as any indication of unusual abilities apart from [[Immortality|the most common one in the series]].
* Sanya and Eila from ''[[Strike Witches]]''.
* Jo from ''[[BakuretsuBurst TenshiAngel]]''.
* Hanekawa Tsubasa from ''[[Bakemonogatari]]'' {{spoiler|becomes one when possessed by a white-haired bakeneko.}}
* Nico Robin's mother in ''[[One Piece]]'', Nico Olivia, had pure white hair. It's unknown how old she was when she died, but she didn't appear too old, and Robin herself was only 8.
