HI!
Select doesn't have placeholder attribute. But you can do placeholder by yourself :D Sample code should look like this:
<select class="mdb-select md-form">
<option value="" disabled selected>Choose your option</option>
<option value="1">Option 1</option>
<option value="2">Option 2</option>
<option value="3">Option 3</option>
</select>
First option is your placeholder. It value should be empty and it should have disabled and selected attributes. Between <option></option> tags you have to put your placeholder text.
And voila! You have your default option, that can't be selected second time, when you choose another.
