Brilio.net - Gray hair or white hair is often considered a sign of aging that appears unexpectedly. The reason is that gray hair does not only appear in old age , but can appear at a young age. Even though its appearance is undesirable, gray hair is a natural process in the body that no one can avoid. Even so, you can still disguise gray hair. Before knowing how to disguise gray hair, you need to know some information about the process of white hair appearing.
Gray hair can occur because melanocytes in the hair follicles produce melanin (which gives hair its color). As we age, melanin production decreases, and newly grown hair has less or no melanin at all. Well, the decreasing distribution of melanocytes causes hair to grow and lose color.
The conditions above are not only caused by aging, but can occur due to several factors. Starting from stress, sun exposure, cell damage, to free radicals.
Even though the appearance of gray hair is quite disturbing, you don't need to worry. You can disguise gray hair with hair oil made from natural ingredients. Even though it is made from natural ingredients, this hair oil is claimed to be able to return hair to black in seven days.
This hair oil is made from shallots, amla, and a mixture of coconut oil. Red onions are known to contain sulfur which can help increase blood circulation to hair follicles. The sulfur content can stimulate new hair growth and help overcome gray hair problems.
The antioxidants contained in shallots can also help protect hair from damage due to exposure to free radicals and environmental pollution. Several studies show that regular use of onion extract can help maintain or restore natural hair color.
Amla is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants that help protect hair follicles from oxidative damage that causes gray hair. The vitamin C content in amla is believed to stimulate melanin production in hair follicles, which can help reduce gray hair growth. Amla is also known for its ability to moisturize and maintain the softness and natural shine of hair.
Meanwhile, coconut oil has natural moisturizing properties that can help maintain soft and healthy hair. The presence of natural moisturizing properties can also help prevent damage that can cause gray hair.
Not only that, coconut oil also has antimicrobial properties which can help reduce fungal growth and overcome the problem of dandruff, which is often a factor causing gray hair. The fatty acid content in coconut oil can help strengthen hair roots and prevent hair loss, which in turn can reduce the risk of gray hair.
