Preventing grey hair

Everyone gets grey hair sooner or later. But how do grey hair actually arise and is it possible to do something about it. Grey hair is created by a complex biochemical process. In recent years, several studies have identified the factors and processes that contribute to grey hair. The main culprit appears to be an excess of hydrogen peroxide, a substance produced naturally by the body.

Hair cells of people of all ages produce some level of hydrogen peroxide. In young people, hydrogen peroxide is quickly broken down by the enzyme catalase, into the harmless elements hydrogen and oxygen. However, as we age, hair cells produce smaller amounts of catalase and less hydrogen peroxide is broken down.

When the hydrogen peroxide builds up, the melanin doesn't work as well. Melanin is a substance produced by the body that gives colour to hair, skin and eyes. In the beginning, the hydrogen peroxide takes some colour out of the hair, making the hairs look grey. Over time, as the level of catalase continues to fall and the level of hydrogen peroxide increases, hair can turn from grey to white.

What causes grey hair? 

Hair turns grey because of various reasons. There are factors such as hair loss that can speed up the process of greying your hair. Stress is a trigger that can cause telogen effluvium, a form of hair loss. In addition, aging causes shedding from the scalp whereby your hairs in time will lose their colour. The only way how to stop grey hair is by effectively use vitamins to prevent grey hair or supplements to stop grey hair. Something we will tell you more about later in the article.

As a younger person, maybe you had a full head of brown, black, red, or blonde hair.  

Some health problems that could accelerate hair greying are: lack of vitamin B-12, certain rare inherited tumor conditions, thyroid disease and vitiligo.

When you are young, you can naturally have many hair colours such as grey, blonde, red, or black. As you get older, pigment cells called Melanocytes in our hair follicles die that cause this colour. When there are fewer pigment cells in the hair follicles, that strand of hair will no longer contain as much melanin and will become a more transparent colour such as grey, silver, and white. Eventually, the hair will look completely grey and that is not what you want if you are anti greying.

Can stress cause grey hair

Researchers have found that stress can be a cause of grey hair. The body wants to combat grey hair and stress often plays a factor. The fact that stress can cause grey hair shows that our psychological well-being can cause changes in the body. Research has shown that after a certain period of stress, it is possible to stop grey hair and turn the hairs back into their hair colour. Scientists from Harvard University have investigated this. Under stress, the nerves produced the substance noradrenaline. This substance appears to rapidly change stem cells into pigment-making cells. Since there are not an infinite number of these cells in your capillaries, this ensures that there is a shortage of these pigment-making cells. Stress therefore affects the speed of your grey hair. Unfortunately, this will probably not be the case for every hair. That is why using an anti grey hair treatment with anti-grey hair tablets and other anti-grey hair products can help to prevent grey hair and provide vitamins to stop grey hair.

Grey hair by genetics

The average age at which your hair starts to turn grey differs from person to person. Often this is in the 20s, but it depends on your genes. The age at which a person's hair turns grey is influenced by the IRF4 gene, and one specific variant (rs12203592) is a marker for premature greying. Often you can determine at what age your hair falls out by checking with your relatives or parents when they went grey. When you are anti grey hair, you might be wondering if you can stop grey hair on your body. This depends on the circumstances and if you suffer from grey hair because of genetics. We recommend you to prevent grey hair rather than try and stop it.

Grey hair after chemo 

Chemotherapy drugs can cause hair loss. They affect the formation of the hair shaft even after the chemo treatment because drug remain in your system for some time. When hairs fall off and new hair grows, it may be different at first. This may be due to loss or change in pigment and might result into grey hair. As your body recovers and hair pigment comes back, your hair may return to its original colour. In fact, since hair growth is often slower after chemotherapy, increased pigment may be picked up and your hair may then grow in darker than before chemotherapy, especially if you use anti grey hair pill during the recovery to stop grey hair.

What are Melanocytes

A cell in the skin and eyes that produces and contains the pigment called melanin is a melanocyte. Melanocytes are found in each hair follicle and produce melanin pigments for the hair during the hair cycle of each hair. The melanocytes consist of stem cell 'MelSC' population. The 'MelSC' attach to the hair follicle stem cells and the niche cells for MelSCs reside in the lower permanent part of the hair follicle to serve as a reservoir for skin and hair pigmentation. The MelSCs form a stem cell system within each hair follicle and provide a hair pigmentary unit. This provides the mechanism for hair pigmentation, hair greying and skin repigmentation.

What's the average age for grey hair? 

When grey hair starts depends on some factors as genetics, stress and chemo. To prevent grey hair is unfortunately difficult, without anti grey hair products. On average, white people start greying in their 30s, Asians in their late 30s and African Americans in their mid-40s. Many people have a significant amount of grey hair when they turn 50.

Premature greying is seen in a white person around the age of 20 while in African-Americans this is around 30. If you are even younger and around the age of 16 and experiencing grey or white hair don't worry. As we have said before you can stop grey hair from developing if you tackle these factors. We therefore advise you to take plenty of vitamins to stop grey hair, for example by taking anti-grey hair tablets, which are full of vitamins that will nourish deficiencies in your body and improve your hair condition.

A few grey hairs around the age of 20 or 25 is considered perfectly normal. When large quantities of grey hairs are visible, it is a different story and it is better to look for the cause and in the future try to prevent grey hair. When you become grey in later life, you can make the choice to accept your grey hair and keep it. It can make you look older and wiser. But if you are really anti greying, when you think you have done everything to prevent grey hair and to stop grey hair. Then smoking, vitamin B-12 deficiency and autoimmune disease may be the underlying cause.

Smoking

If you want to prevent grey hair, it is not wise to start smoking. Research has shown that there is a significant relationship between getting grey hair before the age of 30 and cigarette smoking. If you are anti grey hair, it is therefore wise to stop smoking as soon as possible or not to start. Smoking can increase the chance of premature hair greying by a ratio of two and a half.

Vitamin B-12 deficiency

As mentioned above, vitamins are important for growing healthy hair. An important vitamin for this is vitamin B-12 and deficiencies lead to premature hair greying.  Researchers have noted that vitamin B-12 deficiencies often coincide with folic acid and biotin deficiencies in people whose hair begins to grey early.

Vitamin B-12 is a nutrient that is essential for your metabolism, DNA production, and overall energy levels. You can ensure you get enough vitamin B-12 by eating foods such as meat, dairy products, fortified cereals, or by using anti grey hair products such as an anti-grey hair pill that contains vitamins to stop grey hair.

Autoimmune disease

Premature hair greying can be associated with various autoimmune disorders such as vitiligo, pernicious anemia, alopecia areata, thyroid diseases and premature aging syndromes as Werner's and Hutchinson-Gilford progeria. If one of these autoimmune diseases is the cause of your grey hair, it is difficult to do anything about it. However, if you suffer from alopecia areata (patchy hair loss) you can try to stop grey hair with the treatment for alopecia areata.

Grey hair men and woman 

Research by The British Journal of Medicine shows that there are some differences between the growth of grey hair in women and men. In this study, hair colour was studied according to age, gender, ethnicity and geographical background.  

This research shows that between the ages of 45 and 65, about 74% of the people suffered from grey hair with an average intensity of 27%. Men in this group had significantly more grey hairs than women. Furthermore, it became clear that people of Asian and African descent had fewer grey hairs than those of Caucasian descent, at similar ages. Something that previous research on grey hair and anti greying confirms.

A huge difference between men and women in hair greying are that in men, hair first grows 60.6% at the temporal area of the head. In women this differs more as 38.6% of grey hair grows first in the frontal area and 31% in the temporal area.

Grey hair or gray hair?  

There is a difference between the spellings of gray or grey. On the internet you can the terms anti gray hair or anti grey hair. The term anti gray hair is more frequent in American English, whereas anti grey hair is more common in British English. In this article, we use the term anti grey hair because this is the main spelling, just like in the famous film 'Fifty Shades of Grey' or the animal ‘greyhound’. Not only in the United Kingdom is British English widely used, also in Ireland, Australia and other countries grey is the most popular. A trick to remember this is that America starts with the A of grey hair and England starts with the E of grey hair.

Grey hair vs white hair

The difference between grey hair and white hair is that grey hair occurs when there is still a little black left from the natural colour. With white hair, all colour is gone and therefore only the white colour remains. This can differ per hair due to each cycle, but if you don't stop grey hair by using supplements to stop grey hair it can become white. This usually happens first on the head and later on the body.

How to prevent grey hair naturally?  

How to stop grey hair naturally is something you might ask yourself if your anti-greying or suffer from premature hair greying. The best way to fight these colourless hairs is to prevent grey hair. A few tips regarding the prevention of grey hairs are:

  • Address potential vitamin deficiencies: when you have a lack of vitamin B-12, iron, Biotin or vitamin D. It is more likely that you will suffer from premature hair greying. A solution could be taking supplements to stop grey hair or nourishing more vitamins to prevent grey hair.
  • Learn to manage stress: stress can trigger premature hair greying. You should aim to reduce unnecessary stressors in your life. Other things you can try is to manage stress for yourself and keep positive thinking. Meditation, exercise or breathing exercises help in some people.
  • Quit smoking: smoking can lead to premature hair greying. If you don't start smoking or quit smoking it could help to keep your original hair colour longer.
  • Eat nutrients: Eating a lot of nutrients can make up for certain deficiencies. Some examples are lentils and chickpeas, which are full of vitamin B9. Salmon is high in vitamin D, and tuna, trout, and sardines all offer a healthy dose of vitamin B12. Walnuts are also an excellent source of copper, which can promote melanin production in your hair. What you need to stop the grey hair on your scalp.
  • Avoid hair products with harsh chemicals: harsh hair products, from hair dyes to shampoos, can contain ingredients that reduce the hair's natural melanin, such as hydrogen peroxide which can lead to premature hair greying. It is best to use a harmless shampoo and conditioner that does not contain any strange ingredients. Products containing, for example, silicone or parabens should also be avoided, as they can cause your hair to fall out more quickly.

What can you do immediately to prevent grey hair?

A healthy lifestyle and diet contribute to delaying grey hair. For example, a balanced diet will provide you with the right vitamins and minerals to keep the necessary biochemical processes going. Smoking constricts the blood vessels which results in less nutrients in the hair. Not smoking also contributes to delaying greying hair.

Should you pluck grey hairs?

We understand that it can be tempting at the sight of one grey hair to immediately pull it out. There is a wide belief that if you pluck a grey hair from your scalp that many more grey hairs will follow in its wake. This is an anti greying myth, because what you do with a single strand can't spread like contagion. Hairs only turn grey when the pigment cells in their own hair follicles die. Eventually this will lead to hair loss and thinning hair.

The best thing to do when you see grey hair is to try and stop grey hair. This can be done, for example, by taking anti grey hair products like anti grey hair pill which is full of vitamins to prevent grey hair.

Can you reverse grey hair?

Yes, it is possible to reverse grey hair. Unfortunately, this is not possible for everyone. If ageing or genetics are the only cause of hair greying, it can only be delayed, not prevented. This is because the pigment cells in the hair follicles die of their own accord. There is no way to bring them back. 

However, if your greying hair is the direct result of a medical problem, there is a way to restore your natural hair colour and stop the greying. Above mentioned factors like not smoking, healthy diet and avoiding stress are factors that help well against premature hair greying.  In addition, you can use anti grey hair products to ensure that you keep your natural hair colour as long as possible.

What makes hair grey faster?  

There are a number of reasons why your hair may turn grey more quickly. Therefore, we have listed for you the factors that accelerate the process of greying hair:  

  • Genetics & aging
  • Smoking
  • Stress
  • Autoimmune condition such as alopecia areata, vitiligo, pernicious anemia, thyroid diseases and premature aging syndromes as Werner's and Hutchinson-Gilford progeria.
  • Polluted environment that generates free radicals and oxidative stress
  • Hormonal change

 

How to stop grey hair in beard?  

In men, the first grey hairs often grow on the temples or in their beards. Often, the colour of a beard is genetically determined and may even differ from the colour of your hair on the scalp. The only way to stop grey hairs in your beard is to treat it in the same way as grey hairs on your scalp. Take care of yourself, don't smoke, avoid stress and take enough vitamins to stop grey hair. You can also hide grey beard hair by colouring your beard.

Grey hair supplements and treatments 

There are certain supplements to stop grey hair. The Neofollics anti grey hair tablets is such a supplement to stop grey hair and is developed to effectively combat the greying of hair and maintain the natural hair colour. These tablets are suitable for every man and woman over 18 years of age who is searching for effective anti grey hair products. In these supplements to stop grey hair ingredients such as catalase, quercetin, copper, l-tyrosine, selenium, zinc, biotin and egcg have been used.

An even more advanced treatment against grey hair is the Neofollics anti-grey treatment. This is a powerful combination of anti greying supplements and Hair Growth Supporting Tablets. Together, these anti grey hair products increase your chances of getting your natural hair colour back, while at the same time ensuring healthy hair. Research shows that 75% of our users experienced a visible reduction in grey hair after using this treatment.

Do anti grey hair pills work? 

Why would Neofollics anti grey hair pills work. Is a question you might ask yourself. As mentioned above, Neofollics products consist of ingredients that help with trying to get back the natural hair growth and research shows that 80% of the users see an improvement in pigmentation and 75% have less grey hair. Below we briefly discuss the ingredients that Neofollics uses:

  • Catalase: Catalase is an enzyme with strong antioxidant properties and has effects similar to glutathione and superoxide dismutase antioxidant enzymes which help reduce body’s oxidative stress. Catalase enzyme breaks down hydrogen peroxide into hydrogen and water molecules and also combats free radicals. Biological processes in the body create free radicals as a by-product, which can damage cells and cause ageing. As you get older the production of catalase decreases, causing free radicals to accumulate in the body, leading to age-related problems, and hair greying is one of them.
  • Quercetin: There have been many studies on the effects of Quercetin in the field of anti-greying. The following conclusion can be drawn: "Quercetin enhances melanogenesis by increasing the activity and synthesis of tyrosinase in human melanoma cells and in normal human melanocytes".
  • Copper: Copper is a vital component of melanin. Melanin can only be produced by melanocytes in the presence of the enzyme tyrosinase, and it is precisely copper that catalyses this enzymatic reaction. Taking supplements to stop grey hair that contains this mineral is therefore a very effective way of helping protect against greying hair.
  • L-Tyrosine: L-Tyrosine is responsible for the production of melanin, which gives us our hair colour. It is also one of the amino acids that contribute to the regrowth of healthy hair.
  • Selenium: Selenium is a mineral that is very important for hair growth. It has the recognized EFSA health claim that it helps to keep hair healthy. Selenium has anti-ageing potential.
  • Zinc: Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal hair. It also contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood. Furthermore, research has shown that zinc is associated with premature hair greying as are iron and copper.
  • Biotin: Biotin or vitamin B8 (B7 in the USA and Germany) has the EFSA approved claim that it contributes to the maintenance of normal hair.
  • EGCG: Green tea extract is obtained from the leaves of Camelia Sinesis. Green tea contains a high concentration of polyphenols and flavonoids, including Epigallocatechin gallate or EGCG.  Green tea cannot reverse the greying of hair but can delay the process because of its antioxidant property. When free radical damage is the reason for your greying of hair. EGCG can scavenge those free radicals and slow down the process.

 

Food supplements against grey hair vs Shampoo against grey hair

Many people find greying hair annoying. Grey hair can be prevented or counteracted in different ways. This can be done by dyeing the hair or using shampoo against grey hair, then choose "colour shampoo grey coverage". However, these are not solutions that tackle the problem at the core, but rather a superficial and temporary solution. The Neofollics anti-grey line tackles the problem at the core and prevents greying hair. This has an effect in the long term, whereas shampoo against grey hair only has an effect in the short term.

The Neofollics anti-grey line focuses on counteracting the biochemical processes that cause grey hair. Several natural ingredients that help prevent the inhibition of hydrogen peroxide prevent greying hair. In addition, already white or grey hairs can become less grey and even regain their original colour. Restoring colour, especially with grey hair for a long time, is of course more difficult than stimulating the inhibition of grey hair.

Vitamins to stop gray hair 

To delay the process of premature hair greying and to prevent grey hair it is smart to try and preserve the rest of your hair colour. There are certain vitamins to prevent grey hair. They help to ensure the production of melanin in the hair follicles. Nutrients and vitamins to stop grey hair are calcium, iron, copper, protein, vitamin B-5, vitamin B-6, vitamin B-12, vitamin D and Zinc. So, when you start an anti grey hair treatment it is wise to check if these minerals and vitamins are in the anti grey hair tablets.

What can you do immediately to prevent grey hair? 

To make grey hair stop quickly, it is actually by starting to live healthier. We understand that premature hair greying is not pleasant and finding the cause is often not easy. Fortunately, in many situations something can be done about it. After reading this article, hopefully you will know more about anti-greying. The advice from Neofollics therefore is that you should assess your hair situation, investigate the underlying cause and then find out what kind of treatment can help you.

If you think you have a vitamin or mineral deficiency, we recommend you use the Neofollics Anti-Grey treatment. These are supplements that can greatly improve your hair condition and combat grey hairs.
