Brilio.net - Gray hair is not only a sign of aging, but can also be influenced by genetic factors. If your family has a history of premature gray hair, this may be passed down to you. Genetic factors such as mutations in the MC1R gene that affect the production of melanin pigment, can accelerate the appearance of gray hair. This mutation increases the pheomelanin pigment which is often associated with red hair and light skin. In addition to genetics, oxidative damage due to free radicals from UV rays, pollution, and stress can also accelerate gray hair.
The decrease in melanin production as we age makes melanocytes unable to produce pigment normally, so gray hair appears. Although many people use hair dye to disguise it, you can try a natural solution. Natural hair oil can help prevent gray hair while maintaining hair health.
YouTube channel Self Care Secrets shares how to make hair oil from gambas, a nutrient-rich vegetable that is beneficial for hair health. Gambas contains a lot of water to moisturize the scalp and vitamins A, C, and E that stimulate hair growth and prevent damage. The anti-inflammatory properties in gambas also help maintain melanin production and reduce gray hair.
This hair oil is equipped with moisturizing coconut oil and rich in antioxidants to fight oxidative damage, as well as rosemary essential oil that prevents hair loss and gray hair. If you are interested in trying, you can follow the steps through the guide on the channel to care for hair naturally and effectively.
