In earlier times, hair used to be white after the age of 40 which was seen as associated with old age. But now the hair starts turning white at an early age. However, there are reasons for this. Poor lifestyle and stressful life are the main reasons for this. Apart from this, due to not taking proper care of hair and lack of nutrition, hair starts to grow.

Due to grey hair?

Hair follicles contain pigment cells, which make melanin. This is the chemical that keeps our hair black. New hairs grow lighter in colour without pigments which is called white hair. When the melanin in the body starts depleting or stops being made, our hair starts turning white. There are many reasons for the lack of melanin, such as pollution, poor lifestyle, not taking the right diet, stress and excessive use of chemical products.
