What Causes Greying Of Hair On The Scalp And Face?
Hi Sir, I am 27 years old. For past some time hair on my head have started whitening. But now, My moustache also started whitening. Hereditary factors,I think- nobody in my family developed white hair as early as I did. Please help me as to what should I do to reverse this, and prevent further whitening of hair, especially the moustache hair. Thanks.
At times long standing illness, stress, using chemical cosmetics and harsh dyes can also cause greying of hairs..
I would suggest you to consult a Trichologist and get evaluated and he can do a thorough clinical evaluation and advise you medications that can replenish your nutritional deficiency as well as certain cease hair fall..
-You can be advised latest treatment techniques for grey hairs like Para amino benzoic acid and also Calcium Pentothenate.. -Avoid smoking if you do and also use dermetologically tested hair products.. -avoid excessive stress.. -You can be given nutritional supplements like containing Vitamin B12, copper, zinc etc.. -Avoid direct exposure to sunlight. -Take antioxidant supplements..
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
