This occurs due to decreased production of melanin as the natural pigment of hair, so that the growing hair strands do not get perfect pigment. This is what makes gray hair grayish white.

Apart from age, gray hair can also appear more quickly due to several other factors. Such as genetics, hormones, styling hair too often using heating tools and chemical dyes, and an unhealthy lifestyle. Some of these factors will damage the melanin in the hair tissue and cause gray hair to appear.
