Hello lybrate-user. Greying of hairs is associated with many factors. One you reach the age of 25, you have a 10 percent to 20 percent chance of graying hair with each passing decade.�It's a fact of life that, eventually, virtually everyone will go gray. Your hair color comes from pigment called melanin. Each hair may contain dark melanin (eumelanin) and light melanin (pheomelanin), which blend together to form the many shades of hair color among humans. This keratin, a protein, makes up your hair and is responsible for giving it its color. As you age, melanin is reduced, which is why your hair turns gray and, ultimately, white (this means there's no melanin left). Other factors for why hair turns gray include: Hydrogen peroxide:�Hydrogen peroxide is a well-known tool for bleaching your hair, but many people aren't aware that your hair cells make hydrogen peroxide, too. Smoking:�There is a significant association between tobacco use and graying of hair. �Cigarette smoking�is also linked to premature hair graying, with the onset of gray hair occurring before the age of 30. Oxidative stress: Research has also shown that people with premature graying had a higher level of pro-oxidants and lower levels of antioxidants than those with normal hair. Vitamin B12 deficiency:�This is also linked to premature gray hair, and there is at least one report of pigmentation returning to hair after the vitamin deficiency was resolved. It's commonly believed that stress causes gray hairs (and many parents of teenagers or former presidents, whose hair often turns gray during office would likely attest to that). Ayurvedic & Panchakarma treatment gives very good result in graying of hairs. Use nilibhringyadi oil for local application. Take these medicines internally for 4 weeks 1) bhringraj tab 500 mg twice day. 2) Tab markav 500 mg twice day Feel free to consult privately for further information and treatment guidelines.
