Brilio.net - Having gray hair on the head is a natural thing when someone enters old age. This happens because the production of melanin in the hair follicles decreases, so that the growing hair strands do not get perfect hair pigment.
Not only that, when you are over 40 years old, hair cell regeneration will also slow down, making your hair prone to graying. But in fact, the growth of gray hair is not only caused by age, you know. There are many other factors that can also trigger the appearance of gray hair, gray hair can even grow at an early age.
Some factors include genetics, the effects of stress, lifestyle, lack of hair care, frequent styling using heating tools, coloring hair using chemical polish, and frequent exposure to sunlight.
Even though it is a common condition, many people feel less confident about having gray hair. So, quite a few are looking for ways to disguise gray hair. One natural ingredient that is widely used to disguise gray hair is henna powder.

The benefits of coffee grounds for fading the appearance of gray hair so that it becomes evenly black again.
As a beverage ingredient that is known to prevent drowsiness, in fact coffee is also useful for disguising the appearance of gray hair.

Reporting from Healthline, the caffeine content in coffee can stimulate hair growth, soften hair, give it a natural shine, and can reduce the appearance of gray hair.
Refined granulated sugar can help nourish hair and prevent gray hair.Granulated sugar actually has several benefits for hair health. These include treating dandruff, gray hair and preventing limp hair. This is thanks to the glycolic acid content in it. Well, this rather smooth texture can clean the scalp and stimulate scalp regeneration to improve blood circulation. This is what can prevent gray hair from growing faster.
