Brilio.net - Damaged hair can disrupt your appearance and indicate health problems. Hair damage is usually characterized by dryness, tangles, and excessive hair loss. In addition, the appearance of gray hair at an early age is often associated with reduced production of melanin, the pigment that gives color to hair.
Hair loss is generally caused by dry and brittle hair, making it easy to break and thin. While gray hair can appear faster due to genetic factors, stress, or lack of certain nutritional intake. Both of these problems can be exacerbated by an unhealthy lifestyle and exposure to pollution.
The main factors that trigger hair damage are deficiencies in vitamins and minerals that are essential for healthy hair, such as iron, vitamin B12, and protein. Prolonged stress can also disrupt blood circulation to hair follicles, causing faster hair loss and accelerating the appearance of gray hair.
However, you don't need to be confused. Because, you can use natural ingredients that are easy to find as an alternative solution that is economical in the pocket. One trick is to use rice with fenugreek seeds, as reported by briliobeauty.net on Wednesday (6/12) from @hairmegood on Instagram.

Rice contains active substances such as para-aminobenzoic acid which is believed to be able to help restore the original color to hair that is starting to turn white. This compound plays an important role in stimulating melanin production and helps stop the growth of gray hair. In addition, rice also contains vitamin E, antioxidants, and other important nutrients that help treat and strengthen hair roots, so it can help overcome the problem of hair loss and gray hair.
