Failure at the pigment factory
Grey Hair is no more than the result of the weakening in the work of the dermal papilla of a hair. In fact, it's the so called plant, which produces and delivers all vitally important substances. Protein synthesis is going down as well as amino acids and nutrients matriculation. Due to all this, cells, which produce hair pigment, suffer a lot. And the hair color disappears. As a result, in stead of saving up the pigment, it saves air. That’s why hair turns grey. If you look at this hair under a educational microscope, you'll see that it reminds a tube with balloons, filled with air.
It's well known that nothing can turn this process back. Maximum that can be done is change a little the color of hair.
Nevertheless, according the statistics, about 30% of these cases can be prevented. Most of them happen due to stress factors, so fighting stress you fight the grey hair. You need to eat well, live happy and active life, wear warm hat at winter (this will help the head's skin microcirculation).
