At this time, they want to cover the white hair through certain methods. For this situation, first of all, you can wear a wig, which is the simplest and most convenient. In addition, you can also improve it through certain methods. The most common one is to grind Polygonum multiflorum and black beans into powder and apply it to the hair.

How to Cover Gray Hair

(1) First of all, you can wear a wig. This method is relatively simple and can produce immediate results. All you have to do is go to a wig shop to buy a wig and then wear it. However, this method also has its drawbacks, the most important of which is that it only treats the symptoms and not the root cause. It can only make others unable to see the white hair from the appearance, but the white hair actually does not change.

(2) There are also some folk remedies to cover gray hair. The main methods are as follows. Grind Polygonum multiflorum, Heyu black rice and black beans into powder, then add appropriate amount of egg white, mix these ingredients evenly and apply it to your hair. Let these substances stay on the hair for a while, then wash it off with clean water. These substances have hair dyeing effects, and their ingredients are safe and have no toxic side effects. Of course, if these substances are not available, grinding the black sesame seeds used at home into powder, then mixing it with egg white and applying it evenly to the hair can also achieve the same effect.

The main cause of gray hair

(1) Irregular eating habits

If the hair roots and scalp lack nutrition, melanin, which controls hair color, cannot be produced. Especially when minerals are deficient, melanocytes cannot produce tyrosinase, which produces melanin.

Continuous unreasonable weight loss or partial diet will lead to the inability to take in the nutrients needed for the production of scalp melanocytes, thus causing gray hair.

(2) Poor blood circulation

Even if you take in adequate nutrition, if the blood circulation is not smooth, it will lead to lack of nutrition for hair matrix cells and melanocytes.

(3) Lack of sleep

An irregular life or lack of sleep can disrupt the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system controls the secretion of growth hormone and blood circulation throughout the body. If it is disturbed, it will lead to metabolic and blood circulation disorders, resulting in gray hair.

(4) Excessive pressure

As we all know, stress is also one of the causes of gray hair. Like lack of sleep, it can cause autonomic nervous system disorders and damage melanocytes.
