Gray Hairs At Some Spots On Head, Headaches

I am 18, and I noticed some grey hairs growing. I was distressed, but my family goes grey early so was not worried. However, as time has passed I ve noticed the grey is growing in, in only one spot. I have no other grey hair on my head other than in one streak in my bangs. Also the greying started at around the same time as some chronic headaches started (they ve been almost constant for 5 months now). Are these in some way related? Is anything wrong with it?
