Grey Hair troubles? The answer is in you!

Posted by ableadam on November 10, 2007

Recently, my basketball buddy, Ray, passed a casual remark on his few strands of white hair. He said he is getting old……at mid thirties? Hmmm….I thought being old is a lot OLDER. Well since I am on it, I might as well clear up some myths and note down some facts about Hair greying. So have you ever look into the mirror and like Ray wonder whether is your geying of hair is due to old age?

The colour of your hair comes from the pigment produced by your hair follicles. Technically, Ray is correct, in that he is getting older than he was, such that his hair follicles are not producing enough pigment and miss out on the few isolated strands of hair. However it is the greying that are sure signs of the follicles producing less and less pigment to the hair, thereby turning a whole patches or clumps of them grey. Are there any ways to slow the greying? Yes…. Besides being hereditary (sorry this one pretty not much you can do about it), there are many don’t that you can observe:

• Don’t Smoke
• Don’t consume excessive caffeine (coffee being the most common)
• Don’t skip you meal
• Don’t have a stressful lifestyle

Keeping a balance diet and regular exercises is the true way of life. Many conditions can be avoided so long as this is being adhere to. No difference to greying of hair really. There is absolutely no reasons to be worried about the greying of hair. It is neither a health condition nor dos it affects your image. What’s more greying of hair are seemed by many being wiser. So don’t worry about your few strands of white hair…it is nothing really… seriously. You may also post your queries here or email me at ableadam13@gmail.com. I will get back to you soonest.
