Symptoms of premature Grey hairs

Symptoms of Greying of hair:





1. The main symptom of greying of hair is the lack of regular thicker hair being allowed to grow. Loss of hair colour before the age of 35 is termed premature greying. In turn, the thinner, grey hairs then have a chance to grow sooner and more rapidly than normal. The transformation is quick but it is not overnight.



2. Graying hair may also be symptom from thyroid deficiancy, medications, exposure to certain chemicals, or illnesses. So, be sure to get a check up if you have greying hair with other symptoms.





3. The pigment melanin is responsible for the change of hair colors. Early graying of the hair is basically hereditary, and we can inherit it from one of our parents or grandparents. Grey hair can also be influenced by stress. A person experiencing a prolonged period of stress and anxiety may notice, over a period of time, white hairs gradually appearing. Malnutrition, worry, shock, deep sorrow, tension and other similar conditions may also slow down the production of melanin resulting in grey hair.





4. Chronic cold is the other symptom for the early greying of hairs. Persons suffering from chronic cold and sinusitis and those who use warm water for washing their hair are more likely to be victims of this condition.
