What’s the science behind gray hair? Is it always age that adds the silver sheen, or do other life factors effect it?
Turns out, while age and genetics are (obviously) the driving factor of graying hair, things like smoking, stress, disease, and nutrition. So, what can people who want their hair to stay their natural color do to prevent the process?
There is no way to prevent graying, but people can slow it down by exercising, eating a proper diet, and cutting back on stress levels. Choosing to dye hair or let it go gray can be a difficult decision, but rest assured, gray hair is making a comeback right now!
