Ottieni la copertura dei capelli bianchi che hai sempre sognato.

Let’s begin by saying that going grey is natural. Everyone’s hair turns grey (or white) at some point. For many, this process begins in your 20s or 30s, for some, it can happen much later. Hair begins to turn grey when hair follicles stop producing melanin, which is what gives your hair its color. Many factors come together to determine when your hair will begin turning grey, including family history, health conditions, and lifestyle.

Does stress cause grey hair?

In a word, yes. Stress can speed up visible signs of ageing, like going grey. Stress causes the release of a hormone called norepinephrine which can cause the melanin-producing cells to move out of your hair follicles, which, researchers say, plays into your hair turning grey.

We can’t quite prevent hair from going grey, in the same way that we can’t stop time. There aren’t any medical treatments that bring the color back to your hair. That said, if an underlying health condition, like a vitamin deficiency, is responsible for your changing hair color, that’s something a doctor or dermatologist might be able to help you with. Remember, going grey is totally normal. If you’re looking for best color to dye hair to cover grey, however, we’ve got you covered below.

There are also some lifestyle changes you can adopt to help slow the greying process. Dermatologists recommend maintaining a healthy lifestyle, which includes having a balanced diet and getting adequate sleep. They also recommend not smoking, protecting your hair and skin from the sun, and trying to manage stress.

Now you’ve got options, but where do you begin? You want a professional grade hair color so you can cover those greys with ease and precision.
