Hi, lybrate-user. Whitening of hairs is a natural ageing process and it's quite normal to have few grey hairs above 30 years of age. -to avoid hastening of the process of graying you should have a diet rich in vitamins and minerals, antioxidants like lycopene (tomatoes, carrots) also help in slowing down the process. -avoid hair bleaching, heat and trauma. If it does not help you can have hair supplements containing calcium pantothenate and paba.
