The trichologist named the main reasons the appearance of gray hair at an early age. According to the specialist, these changes usually occur either against the background of prolonged stress or as a result of genetic predisposition.

If gray hair begins to appear after the age of 50, it can be considered a natural process. It is associated with the weakening of the function of melanocytes, which produce melanin, which provides hair with color. At the same time, gray hair can appear much earlier.

If the hair acquires a different shade, it may indicate a genetic predisposition or be the result of chronic stress. During nervous tension, more adrenaline enters the blood.

It disrupts the connection of the high-molecular melanin pigment with the protein structure of the curl. As a result, the pigment disappears. At the same time, spasm of blood vessels against the background of stress destroys the microcirculation of blood around the hair follicle and often provokes the death of melanocytes.

Early graying can also be caused by other factors. These include diseases of the digestive organs, poor nutrition, diseases of the hormonal system, metabolic disorders, lack of protein products, chronic infections, deficiency of useful vitamins and trace elements. Oncology, bad ecology, autoimmune diseases, smoking, alcohol and UV radiation should also not be excluded.
