Grey hair is a common sign of aging. Our hair turns grey because the pigment cells in the hair die. Gradually, we say our hair is growing grey. The color of hair changes from grey when there is still some pigment in hair to silvery white when pigment disappears completely. Stresses at any age may cause premature grey hair. It suggests that our nervous system plays role in the pigment formation. Stress and pollution is the main factor which is responsible for premature grey hair.
Premature grey hair shows that you are deficient of vitamins B2, B6, B1 and PP you need to strengthen your nervous system. Researchers have said “The B-vitamins deficiency weakens the nervous system and overall metabolism, which influences the nourishment of hair and pigment formation in its turn. Lack of vitamin B2 causes disorders in the pigment formation process. Vitamin PP is essential for the nervous system as well as for proper hair and skin metabolism. Finally, pantothenic and para-aminobenzoic acids promote hair growth and the formation of hair pigment.”
Therefore, if you want to avoid premature grey hair, get more of these vitamins and keep stress away.
Grey hair generally develops slowly may be with one or two strands and gradually depolarization of hair takes place. Some women get threads appearing all over, while others find it appears around the face. However, if you colour your hair, the place you’ll notice the grey is your roots.
Now a great approach to get rid of that grey and dull hair is to add more grey than there is naturally in the form of highlights. This can look very pretty, with a variety of other colours such - pewter, charcoal, platignum etc. you can also chose to have grey-hair with fine but zingingly artificial streaks like purple, pink and blue in completely grey hair, it can just make you look much interesting.
Whether you colour, or don’t colour, once you start acquiring grey hair, eat lots of protein to keep your hair in good condition, and give your tresses a hot-oil treatment once a week. And it is said that if you smoke, Grey hair picks up cigarette smoke and changes to an unflattering brassy yellow.
You can also choose to go a little lighter at this time, as the pigment in your skin is starting to fade and your hair colour would naturally keep going grey with time. One tip by a famous dermatologist is, “to colour your hair as the one you had as a child. If you were blonde as a child and over the years your hair has faded to brown, for instance, you can probably take added blonde shades very well.”
This gives your hair that impression and looks naturally.
