5. Aggressive Hair Creams And Dye
No doubt, some hair cream or dye can darken and bleach your hair. The effects are temporary, though, but who knows what happens in the long run.
I was a victim of this hair-cream-changing hair color issue. It happened years back when I used one hair cream that was imported from Thailand on my hair.
After some weeks, my black hair started fading to brown. I was like, what the hell is wrong with my hair.
I stopped using the hair cream, and boom, my black, oily, and shiny hair appeared again. The same thing can happen if you use dye or hair cream that is harsh to your hair.
I am not saying you should not use hair cream or dye on your hair. But you should apply sense and caution to know that creams and dye can make your hair turn white or gray later.
6. Smoking
This is yet to be proven, but I remember some experts mentioned smoking as one of the causes. In reality, I think it’s one of the causes of premature gray hair growth. But we are yet to confirm it.
7. Scalp Infections
Skin conditions such as dandruff, eczema, ringworm may also cause greying. However, grey hair resulting from scalp Infection can be reversed once the infection is treated, no doubt. It’s just a matter of time.
At What Age Should I Consider My Gray Hair Premature?
In human understanding, turning grey in your ’20s or ’30s can be considered premature grey hair, but I think gray hair appearing from childhood shouldn’t be considered premature.
How To Make White Hair Turn Black Again Naturally (Home Remedies)
The first important thing to do is give your hair enough attention; the other is to follow remedy instructions religiously.
While some people find it remarkable to grow grey hair, some hate it so much that they can go to any length to get it off their hair.
If you are an addicted smoker, I don’t think you can heed my advice, but you have to go for hair dye.
People who don’t smoke have it in mind that it’s not always about dye and dye. Try some of these quick home remedies and see if they work for you.
1. Mix Coconut Oil And Lemon Juice
Mix coconut oil with lemon juice, apply it to your hair, comb, or brush your hair, so the mixture gets to all the grey hair. Before you do this, make sure your hair is clean.
Allow the mixture to sit on your hair for 2 hours or more before washing it off. If you want to use shampoo, use a gentle one.
Add this to your hair routine, and do this daily or 4-5 times weekly for at least two months and watch out for the result.
The lemon juice is somewhat optional; it is just to quicken the reaction. If you are allergic to lemon, feel free to use only coconut oil.
2. Consume Iron And Biotin Supplements
Eat foods and fruits rich in iron and biotin, or take supplements recommended by an expert.
You can also apply unsalted buttermilk with curry leaves on your hair anytime you want to wash your hair as per your routine. Apply it to your hair and let it sit for 30 minutes before you wash your hair.
This can help you get black and healthy hair from roots. It worked for a teenage girl as recommended by her hairstylist.

- Be social, and stay active to keep yourself off stressful thoughts.
- Seek support and advice from good friends and family when difficulties arise.

You can only feel comfortable, think, and function well when your body is satisfied and balanced with adequate nutrients in its right proportion.
It’s important to know that fast food are regarded as junks. I understand that sticking to a healthy diet can be hard, but I tell you that it’s a path worth choosing not just for your hair.
5. Apply Onion Juice
Onion juice is highly rich in catalase enzymes; studies have shown that catalase enzyme helps neutralize hydrogen peroxide. In summary, this means onion juice can make white hair turn black again naturally.
When applying onion juice, ensure that all parts of the affected areas are touched, let it sit for at least one hour before washing, and that’s all.
Do this daily and wait for some time because it takes time before it fully turns black again. If, after some months, this didn’t help, then I recommend you visit a Trichologist.
