Kaneki Finger Crack Tattoo

Kaneki’s hair turned white due to excessive torture by Jason. Due to extreme stress, Kaneki’s hair started turning white. It is infamously known as the Marie Antoniette syndrome.

After Tsukiyama cut Kaneki's finger accidentally with his finger nail, he used Tsukiyama's handkerchief to soak up the blood. Unbeknownst to him, the scent of the blood would further intensify Tsukiyama's obsession with him. Yamori's torturer cracked his fingers before actually torturing him. Yamori copied that, probably unconsciously. Kaneki copied Yamori, he makes this gesture as some kind of personality switch, from cheerful Kaneki to ruthless Kaneki. Sasaki probably does it instinctively.

In the final episode of season 1, we can see Kaneki getting brutally tortured. After a certain point of time, he embraces himself of being a ghoul rather than a human, that moment his nails turn black and his turns white instantly. This is an actual medical condition called Marie Antoniette syndrome.

This is caused by extreme amount of stress and psychological trauma as we see Kaneki being put through. This condition was named after Queen Marie Antoninette when she and her family were trying to flee Paris for high treason. On the night of her execution, her hair had turned fully white all of a sudden.
