Brilio.net - Gray hair is a condition where a person's hair loses its color pigment and turns white or gray. Usually gray hair is often considered a natural aging process and can happen to anyone, including those as young as 25 years old. This condition is usually called the phenomenon of premature graying.

Of course, the appearance of gray hair does not just happen. Gray hair that appears quickly at a young age can be caused by several factors. The first factor is genetics which plays an important role in the formation of gray hair. If family members have a history of graying at a young age, it is possible that this can be passed on to offspring.

The second factor is excessive stress. It is known that emotional stress that occurs in a person can trigger gray hair to appear early. This is because stress causes the hormone cortisol in the hair to increase. Not only that, this hormone also causes the hair growth cycle to be hampered.

The third factor, gray hair can occur because hair follicles lack nutrients, such as vitamin B12, vitamin D, iron and amino acids. A deficiency in some of these nutrients can cause hair aging to appear more quickly and affect the health of the scalp.

To deal with gray hair, you can follow the method shared by a doctor named Saddam Ismail. In a video upload on his YouTube channel, he shares how to treat gray hair using natural ingredients, namely coconut oil and lemon. These two ingredients have their own benefits and ingredients for treating gray hair.
