stray
I saw the paleness of his skin, the stray white hairs, the way his arms hung limp and helpless.
What does 'stray' mean in 'the stray white hairs'?
Does it mean 'jumping off somewhere'?
Could you describe it?

'Stray white hairs' would mean that among the rest of the hair on his body, there were a few white hairs present.
