Brilio.net - Gray hair is generally synonymous with old age, but not always. Gray hair appears due to decreased levels of hair melanin, which can occur due to genetics, unhealthy lifestyle, or other factors. Although usually experienced in the 30s, some people have gray hair since adolescence, around the age of 17-24 years, especially if they have hereditary factors.

In addition to genetics, vitamin B12 deficiency, stress, smoking habits, and drug use also trigger the appearance of gray hair. Although common, gray hair often makes people feel less confident. So, not a few are looking for natural ways to overcome it.

Like the trick from the TikTok account @08rhose2723 on September 29, 2022, which uses a combination of lemon and coconut oil to deal with gray hair.

"This natural home remedies for removing gray hair," he wrote in the video, as quoted by briliobeauty.net on Tuesday (28/1).

Lemon, a sour fruit rich in vitamins, has many benefits for hair health. Its vitamin B, vitamin C, and phosphorus mineral content helps maintain pigment cells in hair follicles, effectively preventing gray hair and making hair healthier and shinier.

The benefits of lemon are even more optimal when combined with coconut oil. Coconut oil contains polyphenols (antioxidants), vitamin E, and fatty acids that play a role in cell regeneration and increase collagen to maintain the natural black color of hair. This combination also maintains hair protein levels and protects melanin, preventing gray hair from reappearing.

With these two ingredients you can make a hair mask to overcome gray hair. In addition to preventing gray hair from growing back, this mask can also make your hair grow thick and look naturally shiny. Here's how to make it:
