The reasons could be genetics, deficiency of certain vitamins, and unhealthy lifestyle, and many more. ■■■■■■■■■ graying of hair can adversely affect the self-esteem of a person.

Hair plays an important role in people’s confidence and self-esteem. We spend so many hours in our lifetime to make our hairs look great because it’s important to make a good impression. We use our hair to express the identity and aura we want others to perceive. The color or style of one’s hair tells a lot about a person’s personality and hair also serves as a means of non-verbal communication.

A famous philosopher Alain de Botton says, “We are using our hair to speak. We’re trying, through the syntax of colored protein filaments, to express key aspects of our soul- and to communicate some of the deepest truths about who we are”

Causes of ■■■■■■■■■ graying of hairs

Genetics

The process of hair changing its color from darker to lighter with age is mainly because of genetics. This means your hair grows grey just because it was a commonality within your family genes. Check when your parents and grandparents went grey and it’s more likely that they had grey hairs at an early age.

Deficiency of certain vitamins

■■■■■■■■■ graying of hair is a sign that your body lacks certain vitamins. If your hair turning grey at an early age that means there is a deficiency of vitamin B-6, B-12, biotin, vitamin D, or vitamin E in your body. Vitamin B-12 provides you energy and also helps your hair to grow. Hair grows grey as the result of the loss of a pigment called melanin. The deficiency of the B-12 vitamin weakens hair cells and affects melanin production. A recent study shows that low Ferritin, Calcium, Copper, Zinc, and Iron are also the main cause of ■■■■■■■■■ graying of hairs.

Stress

If you are noticing ■■■■■■■■■ graying of your hair, stress might be the culprit. Chronic stress includes less sleep, high blood pressure, anxiety, and many other skin problems and when our body responds to stress, healthy cells get damaged.

Another study from New York University found that the cells responsible for hair color can be depleted when our body is under stress.

Unhealthy diet

An unhealthy lifestyle or diet can also lead to ■■■■■■■■■ graying of hairs. There is a famous saying, “Excess of everything is bad”. Excess intake of salt and sugar, cold drinks, and having processed food in your daily meal might be the reason for ■■■■■■■■■ graying of your hairs. Not having a proper meal, less sleep, not enough fresh air, and less nutritional food can also lead to ■■■■■■■■■ graying of hairs.

Medical condition and thyroid disorder

Persons with autoimmune diseases are at more risk of having gray hair early. A study published in 2008 proves that the hormonal changes caused by thyroid disorder can be a reason for grey hair at an early age. The thyroid gland is located at the base of your neck controls many functions of your body such as metabolism and the health of the thyroid gland can influence the color of your hair. The thyroid gland can affect the function of a pigment called melanin that produces the color of hair.
