How to prevent gray hair?

If you have already noticed the appearance of a grey hair, you probably hope to stop the problem before it gets out of control.

The age at which hair begins to graying is determined by your genes, so there is not much you can do about it. However, making some lifestyle changes can help you keep the color long as possible before it finally turns gray. Although it may seem like the beginning of the end, there are many solutions to hide gray hair, from dyeing hair to using products with specific mechanisms of action that act to recover melanin in hair bulb.

Read below to discover how to avoid gray hair and recover your original color if you have not yet undergone the total hair color change.

What causes hair graying?

The appearance of gray hair is due to the lack of melanin, which is the dark pigment found in some cells of the body and produces the coloration of the skin, hair and eyes. As you get older, melanin production is affected by numerous factors: age and genes play an important role, but what exactly causes the body to stop producing melanin? This question has been difficult for scientists to answer for decades, but some recent studies provide decisive answers.

Gray hair and catalase

In a study conducted in 2009 by the Federation of American Societies of Experimental Biology, it was discovered that the transformation of the hair color from its original color to gray is simply due to an accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in the hair particles, which bleaches it from the inside.

There is an enzyme called catalase that breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. However, as you get older, catalase production begins to decrease. The result leads to the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in the body.

Catalase is not the only enzyme that breaks down hydrogen peroxide. Glutathione peroxidase, the body's main antioxidant produced by the liver, also converts hydrogen peroxide into water. As with catalase, glutathione production determined a measure that ages and thus develops the appearance of gray hair.

MNT signaling and gray hair formation

A 2016 study proposed another possibility to determine the decrease in melanin over time: targeting the molecular pathways that govern the hair pigment could restore hair color. Upon studying some stem cells, scientists at the Langone Medical Center at the University of New York discovered that a signaling pathway called Edn / EdnrB interacts with other pathways, particularly the MNT signaling pathway. This process creates more melanocytes, cells that form melanin in the skin and hair.

This study was the first to find a link between these signaling pathways and the hair and skin pigment. The findings suggest that the development of treatments to act on these pathways may contribute to returning the original color to gray hair.

So ... how to prevent gray hair formation?

Make sure you get enough nutrients and vitamins

Nutrients and vitamins are essential for the health of hair and skin. When you have a deficiency, your hair may start to lose some of its pigment prematurely or even fall out. Vitamins are found in animal products such as meat, fish or eggs, as well as fruits, vegetables, nuts and dairy products.

Consider taking multivitamin nutritional supplements if you are worried about the appearance of premature gray hair, especially if you suspect that you are not consuming enough beneficial vitamins and micronutrients through your diet. The consumption of dietary supplements will help you to postpone the process of gray hair formation.

REDENHAIR ANTI-GREY HAIR restore the original hair color and prevent future gray hair formation, thanks to its content in catalase, zinc, folic acid, pays, l-tyrosinase and many B vitamins (B5, B6, B8 and B12) that preserve the original hair color. These capsules are intended to combat oxygen peroxide, the precursor to the disappearance of melanin and gray hair formation. In addition, REDENHAIR ANTI-GREY HAIR tablets are formulated with extracts of horsetail, green nettle and faulty multiflora, ingredients backed by scientific studies that act to improve hair health and stimulate their growth.

Use products with assets that act against the appearance of gray hair

While hair in poor condition does not turn gray before healthy hair, it is more likely to fall out. When new hair grows back, it often has less pigment than the original hair, especially as it begins to age. Hence the importance of changing your hair care routine to keep it strong and avoid the damage that causes it to fall out.

Likewise, the constant loss of melanocyte precursor stem cells leads to a considerable decrease in melanin production. To avoid this process, there are shampoos and hair lotions that contain active ingredients with specific actions to stimulate melanocytes and reverse the color of gray hairs already formed.

REDENHAIR ANTI GREY HAIR LOTION is a dermatologically tested product that reverses the process of gray hair formation, preserves and progressively restores the natural hair color. The lotion is formulated with rosemary water, GREYVERSE®, MELITANE ™, TRICO HYAL ™ NUCLEO and CHROMAFEND ™ BIOFUNCTIONAL, active ingredients intended to conserve melanin in the hair follicles. The innovative technology that it uses is aimed at specific protein markers that are key to the control of melanin synthesis.

On the other hand, it is also convenient that you replace your usual shampoo with one that acts against the graying of hair and takes care of hair health.

REDENHAIR ANTI-GREY SHAMPOO is another state-of-the-art hair product that prevents the gray hair formation process, preserving the natural hair color to achieve a more youthful appearance thanks to its sulfate-free natural formula and composed of hair-protective ingredients.

However taking into account the factors that promote the appearance of gray hair, it is important to avoid stress, eat well and try not to smoke, since these habits are precursors of hair graying.

The REDENHAIR ANTI-GREYING RANGE product pack is a unique, very complete and pioneering treatment in the hair health market. Get it if you really want to act in stopping the gray hair formation process.
