Is your hair turning grey? Check out these natural remedies to prevent premature greying of hair
PTC News Desk: In an age of busy lives and stress, our lifestyle choices can have a big impact on our overall health. This also affects the health of our skin, scalp, and hair. Several factors contribute to the early greying of your hair.
According to a study published in the International Journal of Trichology, premature hair greying is primarily caused by genetics, with potential environmental factors including Vitamin B12, Vitamin D3, and calcium deficiencies.
Genetics: Genetics play an important role in premature greying of hair. Variations in certain genes, according to the National Institutes of Health, can influence when you go grey.
Smoking: Your cigarette addiction not only harms your lungs, but it can also cause grey hair. According to research, the harmful components of cigarette smoke can cause premature ageing of the skin and hair.
Stress and anxiety: Stress is bad for your health, including your hair. Chronic stress and anxiety are well-known to have a negative impact on your hair. Stress hormones can cause premature ageing, including greying of the hair.
Nutritional deficiencies: Poor eating habits and a lack of essential nutrients such as Vitamin B12, Vitamin D3, and calcium can contribute to the greying process. Numerous studies have shown that a well-balanced diet is essential for maintaining hair health.
Here are some natural solutions to prevent premature greying of hair and bring back the lustre to your locks:
Amla is believed to have properties that can help prevent premature greying. It can be consumed as fresh fruit, juice, or as a powder mixed into various dishes.
Boil curry leaves in coconut oil and apply the mixture to your hair. Curry leaves are high in antioxidants, which can help restore pigment.
Curry leaves, fenugreek seeds (methi dana), and coconut oil are natural stimulants for melanin production, which addresses the underlying cause of premature greying.
Onion juice is thought to stimulate hair growth and help prevent premature greying. Apply onion juice to your scalp and hair, leaving it on for about 30 minutes before washing it off.
Henna is a natural dye that can be used to cover and condition grey hair. However, henna gives a red-orange tint, so choose a colour that complements your natural hair colour.
