    Do you know if polyester or elastane headwear can contribute to this problem? I ask because it is said that wearing underwear made of synthetic material negatively affects reproduction and is endocrine disrupting due to the static generated by the fibres as this was tested on dogs. I wondered if the static from synthetic headwear such as elasticated head bands could cause the stem cell to become stuck since static creates a disruption in the balance of ions.

    Not that I'm suggesting this as a treatment, but my uncle needed chemotherapy for his non-Hodgkins lymphoma. He had male pattern baldness and grey hair. When it grew back in it was brown, wavy and covered his entire head for the remainder of his life. Which, by the way was for another 12 years until his 73 year. He also remained in remission for that entire period.

In the beginning, she was on a ventilator for 3 weeks then weaned off and switched to O2 24/7 for 28 months. Now she is now breathing room air and supplemental O2 as needed (still no new grey hair). No supplements except for Vitamins B1 and C, usual thyroid med. No hyperbaric, only an O2 concentrator with a trach mask. No one noticed it until one of her best friends visited and asked if I colored her hair... 🤷🏻‍♀️

Much to my shock, only the last half of the hair was gray. The root half had repigmented back to brown! What a gift from the universe on my bday! I was shocked because I didn’t know this was possible. I’ve had my ass kicked by various viruses over the last coup,e years and I suspect that may have prompted the hair to turn gray (I also experienced quite a lot of hair loss or telegenic effluvium).

    My mom had put her over/under for my hair going grey at 30, since she started early. I'm 42 and can sometimes see a single unpigmented (they seem entirely white) hair poking out here and there. Even I'm surprised, especially with all the chemo and radiation I've been through - total body irradiation damages all of your hair follicles and stopped some from working entirely. My hair's fallen out 4 different times, damaged follicles, and the system stress all add up...I expected it to happen earlier and more quickly. I don't mind either way, I just think it's interesting that what little melanin I have (in the remaining functional hair follicles) just keeps on truckin'.

    My stylist didn't believe in reversible graying until she saw it in me about a year ago. My gray comes and goes and now I've got a real clue as to why. I take several grams of lecithin per day when I feel I need acetylcholine support, which isn't always. Lecithin's amino acid is - ta-daa - l-methionine, and lecithin is the only isolated source of l-methionine that I've ever taken. (As a stand-alone supplement >500mg or so, it can cause unpleasant mood alteration phenomena e.g. "unreality", deja-vu, etc.; never had this from lecithin.) Thanks so much for this clip ... this is the first real clue to this mystery that I've seen, and the first public acknowledgement that I'm not actually imagining "outgrowing" my gray hair. (Now is it also possible that l-methionine may revive dead follicles? Because it's not just my gray that comes and goes ... it's also the little pie of barenness on my scalp that fluctuates too.)

    The patch of thinness could simply be form the natural cycle of hair follicles. Only about 2/3 of your hair follicles are ever active at the same time, this is why there is always some natural loss throughout your life as the follicles turn on and off and the hair drops out. So as the hair follicles in the thin area switch from active to dormant the number of them is not even and one part of cycle the area has less active follicles than at a later stage.

    I have seen white hair reversed with chemotherapy, when a certain old (70+) professor at the medical school developed leukemia he received chemotherapy. He then lost all of his thick white hair as a chemotherapy side effect (he was cured by the way). When his hair grew back it had the rich dark brown coloration of his youth (he went on to live into his early 90s). Presumably stem cells replenished his hair as well as those for his different white cell populations.

    I'm convinced that my greys came from hair dyeing as they are around the hairline, and I used to spend more dyeing time at those same roots. Incidentally I only dyed my hair as I accidentally bleached it with Sun-In instead of using the leave-in conditioner. So years later I have been essentially trying to revive follicles with the premise that helping the scalp and blood capillaries in it, as well as fat cells (presumably) on the scalp should help, using healthy antioxidants as well as sleeping more- Minding the liver, minding copper/ zinc balance, only having natural supplements, and trying new ways of detoxing the scalp, and all generally in order to help decrease acidification from oxidative stress. Currently, bergamot oil in earl grey tea as well as applying it to the hairs after washing my hair and detoxing the scalp using clay, is my new phase of relaxing hairs, etc. Indian medicine has a good few ideas, and I've used those ideas. I notice my hairs have different colours along them when they fall out- the grey at the root will be less on one hair than on another, and I've used henna and indigo on greys so I feel like it has increased and decreased bulges. I only use henna once or twice per year, and take natural b complex vitamins, as well as avoid fortified processed foods which would deplete the ability to reset after oxidative stress. Scalp massage is also good, as is facial massage. General relaxation should help, although I have pain problems so it is a struggle. I've heard through YT videos that it takes 1000+ days to reverse greying, but I don't know if that includes hair dye damage.

The first one talking about this revolutionary breakthrough that was going to eliminate gray hair. The next mention, not long after, was that the formula had been sold to L'Oréal, who makes hair color. Of course, that was the end of that.

    Please don't do this - its lazy thinking. Rarely does a company just shutter something because it will compete with another product of theirs. They're going to try to market it and charge an arm and a leg if it works to make up for the portion of their business that is cannibalized by the new product. A product that reduced gray hair and didn't rely on dying hair would also expand their market to people that don't want to chemically dye their hair but would like to reduce their grays. Either it didn't work, or it didn't sell in test markets. Anything else doesn't make sense.

The longest standing example which I can think of is the light bulb- the filaments in the first lightbulbs ever made were made in such a way that they quite literally could not burn out. One of these first bulbs has been burning continuously in a firehouse in NYC since its creation. It was deemed unmarketable as once people bought them they would only need to buy them again if they were broken by accident, drastically limiting potential sales. To counter this the investors at the time required the inventors to make a bulb that would need replacing periodically. They instituted the earliest well known example of “Planned Obsolescence” in modern history, and companies have followed suit since. This is a well known fact.

    I noticed my first gray hair at 21, after my first baby. I figured I'd go gray naturally, no dye bottles. My kids would see a gray hair and pull it, occasionally. Then, they would see either one of two things. Either the hair was gray at the tip and brown near the root or, it would be gray on both ends and brown in the middle. At one time, I thought I would be going for the Cruella DeVille look, because I had a wash of gray on the one side. It went away. Now, I think the gray hairs are just hiding behind brown ones. It's got to be something I'm eating.

    A big trick among catalase enzyme containing supplements is that they contain green superfoods, namely CHLORELLA. The catalase is digested and therefore does nothing similar to when taking collagen. And if you want to help with re growing hair follicles go with Fucoidan which is a very safe stem cell activator, aside from using Neosporin to combat folliculitis and keep the toilet lid down to help prevent that.

    The hair on my head seems to be stable for now at 38 years old but about 2-3 years ago a few odd white hairs started showing up around the chin in my beard. Those 3-5 hairs have now turned into visible clumps still constrained to the same area, interestingly all close to an old scar from a childhood incident that required stitches. I really don't mind it just curious to see how it progresses, the loss of hair coverage at the top of my head is slightly more of a nuisance but I've eventually accepted that I need to apply sunscreen there too now or consistently wear a hat on days with enough UV radiation.

They concluded that L-methionine toxicity, in mice with other physiological factors can cause alzheimer's-like symptoms. They actually list all the important functions and benefits of L-methionine in the paper. And also say more studies on L-methionine in animals are needed because other things could have contributed the their results.

    It is an ancient remedy to use black strap molasses to prevent and reverse green hair. I don’t understand the entire science of it… But it works. You take it internally about a tablespoon or two per day. You can mix it in with tea or coffee or you can just ingest it on a spoon or in a smoothie. Just get it in. Then you use the molasses topically as well about once, or twice a month on wash days. You make a pre-shampoo treatment out of the molasses coat, your strands let it soak in for a while before washing out and styling hair as usual. If you continue this, it will reverse or prevent your grays. Obviously depending on how great you are advanced, it’ll take some time others will see results right away. I started going gray prematurely at 16. I’m now 38 and have only seen one gray hair since my teen years.

    I have a condition called Pernicious Anemia which made me get a bunch of new greys in my 20s and then slowed down once i got treatment. (I've had at least some since around 12 years of age.) I which I could go all the way grey faster without the anemia. I'll just have to wait.

    My hair started turning gray when I was around 43. I don’t really mind. One good thing is I still have all my hair. A family trait enables me to continue to have all my hair. I feel blessed to have all my hair. So I’m good.

    My silvery Gray hair gets nothing but compliments!! I've been asked where I go to get my hair done and I laugh and say "no where. it's all natural"...after seeing that they sell gray hair dye many years ago in the beauty supply store, I decided why bother coloring mine? I was never obsessed with dying my hair, so growing it out to be all gray was a painless process. Younger people are paying good $ to have their hair dyed gray, so I'm a head of the game! I'm a little lazy, so if I don't have to put in a lot of effort for something, all the better! Lol....

    Silver and grey are definitely in right now. I always say grey is the new khaki.😊 But I feel like people should do what they like and prefer, whether coloring hair or shaving it or anything else in life and love for that matter. The world would be a better place if people minded their own business and lives instead of shaming and policing others.

    I started going grey a few years ago, then I heard about some of the aging research being done by dr Sinclair... That sent me down the rabbit hole and I completely overhauled my diet.. since then all my grey hair has completely disappeared!.. not sure if it's one thing or a mix of factors but the results have been pretty spectacular... It's like I hit the rewind button on the aging process... my god is it ever complicated though! Holy Cr*p!!.. amino acids all need to be in the right ratios, almost every vitamin interferes with the absorption of others, and then even if it increases bioavailability, things like vitamin C and iron taken together can actually create ROS and can actually cause more harm than good.. especially to your kidneys... Get it all right though and the transformation is astounding...

    they sprayed something in the air bcuz even though I wasn't around people i was outside everyday dealing with my dogs. I still got sick and suddenly developed an autoimmune disorder. suffering pain and swelling in muscles, joints and organs and 4 months suddenly started dropping weight even though i was still eating. lost about 40lbs over 2-3 months. my body was shutting down! cld hardly walk or dress myself some days. my father also had similar symptoms but wasn't outside as much as me. we both tested negative for covid with the bs tests. we both developed the constant phlegm in the throat early in 2020 around march/april. that's all had before all hell broke loose on my body. went through almost every kind of doctors over 6-8 month period. finally went to the cleveland clinic in 2021 when i could travel and after looking at my chart of issues and symptoms over the last year the first questions the doctors asked was did i have covid and i said according to the docs i saw early on NO. then his next question was which vaccine did i take? two different specialists i saw asked me the same questions. which set off a alarm in my head. they knew those jabs was causing lots of issues in people. but the kicker is I never got any shots and wasn't around anyone who was sick with covid or anything when my issues started. even one of my dogs was sick which tells me something was being sprayed through the air, maybe some bacteria . that's my theory! I was actively working out, cycling, swimming etc when this all happened too soo yeah.

    What’s worse than aging is vanity and the desperate lengths some people go to. Think about that ridiculous hair weave and all the money Donald Trump spends on it. Or women getting botox in their 30s because they’re so afraid of getting a wrinkle. Or Peter Thiel getting blood transfusions from children to slow the aging process.

    In other comments I read about genetics so I'm kind of split on that. I'm 47 and yes, you can see some gray hairs but from afar I'm still pitch black. My older sister, however, started dying her hair at 37 while my older brother was nearly white in the middle with a black circle around at 45. My mother, on the other hand, at the age of 55 had never dyed her hair and didn't look gray at all. We're Afro-Latino by the way. Or rather, half, because the other half (our father) is white. In skin color, I was always the darkest of us three and I had more of our mother's looks. Maybe that's why, like her, I barely turn gray in comparison to my siblings?

    Any vitiligo cases here that had benefits from PUVAsol or something else? I've had it since I was 5 and have never tried any treatment because it's expensive and results are not granted. My hair is graying too because of it and now I don't know if it would be graying without vitiligo. :D First gray hairs emerged at the age of 5 when I got my first white spots. My vitiligo has spread over the years, not very rapidly but steadily anyway.
