What to do if your hair is dry and yellow

As we all know, Chinese people's hair is pure black, but most Chinese people have dry and yellow hair. So what should we do about dry and yellow hair? First, let's understand the reasons for dry and yellow hair. Reduced thyroid function, malnutrition, anemia, etc. will lead to a decrease in melanin in the body, causing the hair to become dry and yellow.

Nowadays, people like to pursue fashion trends very much. They often dye their hair, perm their hair, etc., and style their hair in this way or that. However, they do not realize that this will cause more damage to the hair. Here are some treatment methods recommended for you according to the condition of dry and yellow hair.

(1) Malnutrition-induced yellow hair: The most important reason is severe malnutrition. In this case, you should pay more attention to adjusting your diet to improve the body's nutrition. Free-range eggs, pork, beans, peanuts, walnuts, and black sesame seeds not only contain a large amount of animal protein and plant protein, but also contain cystine and cysteine, the main ingredients for blackening hair. They can be said to be one of the best foods for hair care.

(2) Yellow hair due to acidic body constitution: It is related to the increase of acidic toxins in the blood, and is also related to excessive fatigue and overeating of sweets and fats. You should eat more kelp, fish, fresh milk, beans, mushrooms, etc. In addition, eating more fresh vegetables and fruits, such as celery, rapeseed, spinach, Chinese cabbage, citrus, etc., can help neutralize acidic toxins in the body and improve the yellowing condition.

(3) Copper deficiency-related yellow hair: In the process of hair melanin production, there is a lack of an important enzyme called "tyrosinase" containing copper. Copper deficiency in the body can affect the activity of this enzyme and cause hair to turn yellow. Foods rich in copper include animal liver, tomatoes, potatoes, celery, fruits, etc.

(4) Radiation-induced yellow hair: Long-term exposure to radiation, such as working with computers, radars, and X-rays, can cause yellow hair. You should pay attention to supplementing foods rich in vitamin A, such as pork liver, egg yolks, milk, carrots, etc.; eat more foods that can resist radiation, such as seaweed, high-protein foods, and drink more green tea.

(5) Functional yellow hair: The main causes are mental trauma, fatigue, seasonal endocrine disorders, drug and chemical stimulation, etc., which lead to disorders in the production of melanin and melanocytes in the body. People with this type of yellow hair should eat more sea fish, black sesame seeds, alfalfa, etc. The active ingredients in alfalfa can replicate melanocytes and regenerate melanin; black sesame can biochemically produce melanin; the niacin in marine fish can dilate capillaries, enhance microcirculation, make qi and blood flow smoothly, eliminate melanin production barriers, and make hair look healthy and beautiful.

(6) Pathogenic yellow hair: Certain diseases, such as iron deficiency anemia and recovery from a serious illness, can cause hair to turn from black to yellow. In this case, you should eat more black beans, walnut kernels, fennel, etc. Black beans contain melanin generators, which promote the production of melanin. The aisole in cumin helps convert melanogens into melanocytes, making hair darker and glossier.

What should I do if my hair is dry and yellow? I believe that the above methods can solve the various causes of yellow hair and can solve the troubles of most people. Everyone must take appropriate treatment measures based on their own needs. Secondly, daily hair care is also very important, and you need to supplement more nutrition and vitamins.
