Brilio.net - Gray hair is one of the signs of aging that everyone experiences when they enter old age. Usually this condition will appear at the age of 30 years and above.
This condition occurs because as a person ages, the production of melanin in the hair follicles decreases. Because of this, the strands of hair that grow do not get the perfect hair pigment, resulting in grayish white hair which is called gray hair .
Even so, gray hair can grow in someone who is still young. This condition is called premature graying. Not without reason, this is caused by several factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, styling hair too often using heating tools and chemical dyes, using unsuitable hair care products, and an unhealthy lifestyle.
This condition is quite disturbing to one's appearance and reduces a person's self-confidence. It's not surprising that many people are looking for ways to disguise the gray hair on their heads. One of them is doing hair polish, either by doing it yourself or at a beauty salon at a fantastic price. However, unfortunately not everyone can get a polish at a beauty salon because the price drains their pockets .
As a solution, you can disguise gray hair yourself by using natural ingredients. Apart from being affordable and natural, it is also not as effective as expensive polish. Not only that, natural ingredients will not damage hair.
