Brilio.net - Hair coloring is often the main choice for many people to cover up gray hair that is starting to appear. Various products such as henna and commercial hair dyes are widely used for this purpose. However, coloring hair too often can damage hair health, making it easy to dry, tangle, and fall out.
Gray hair occurs when hair grows in a white or grayish color, which usually begins to appear as you age, especially after the age of 30. This is caused by a decrease in the production of melanin, the natural pigment that gives hair its color. In addition to aging factors, gray hair can also appear faster, even at a young age. Factors such as genetics, hormones, stress, lifestyle, and some medical conditions can accelerate the growth of gray hair, which is known as premature graying.
However, for those who experience this problem, there is no need to worry. Premature gray hair can be prevented by utilizing natural ingredients. As shared by the TikTok account @healthni on October 26, 2023, the use of baby oil, eggs, and lemons can help prevent premature gray hair.

This baby product, which is generally used to maintain the moisture of baby's skin, is also effective for caring for hair. The natural mineral content in baby oil is known to inhibit the growth of gray hair and support healthier hair growth. Baby oil also functions to maintain hair moisture and prevent dry scalp, so that hair becomes stronger and does not fall out easily.
The protein content in eggs is very useful for preventing the appearance of gray hair and strengthening hair follicles. In addition, eggs also provide essential nutrients for hair and scalp to stay healthy, helping to prevent various hair problems.
Lemon is rich in vitamins B, C, and phosphorus minerals that are essential for maintaining pigment cells in hair follicles. This content helps slow the appearance of premature gray hair by maintaining the health of cells that produce hair pigment.
