PREMATURE GREYING - by Editor
Have you started seeing the first strands of grey in your hair? Here?s what you can do to prevent further greying.
What can I eat to prevent premature greying?
Eating seafood is possibly one of the best things you can eat to promote all-over hair health. It is rich in zinc, iodine and protein, which are excellent for the hair. So if you enjoy seafood, make it a point to have fish several times a week. Remember that eating canned fish will not give you the same benefits as eating freshly cooked fish. If you don?t eat fish, consider fish-oil supplements.
Iron is good for hair and is found in dark green vegetables, meat and some pulses. If you are unsure about whether you are getting enough iron, include an iron supplement every once in a while in your diet. Remember that too many iron supplements can be bad for you. Women lose iron while menstruating, so perhaps during or after your cycle you can have iron-fortified supplements for a few days.
Eating foods rich in Vitamins B and C will ensure that your hair stays strong, does not break easily, and does not grey early. Pork, vegetables, whole grains, wheat germ, soymilk are all rich sources of Vitamin B, while citrus fruits are excellent sources of Vitamin C. Eating adequate Vitamin C helps increase absorption of iron. Try and have a glass of orange juice daily.
Your hair will never be healthy if you do not drink enough water. Drink at least eight to ten glasses a day.
What oil can I apply to my hair?
Rosemary oil is believed to gradually darken grey hair over a period of time. Soak rosemary leaves along with a few basil (tulsi) leaves, in jojoba oil, for a period of four weeks. Massage your scalp and hair with this oil (after warming it up).
Most oils are not easily absorbed by the hair, which is why you need to leave oil on for at least forty-five minutes. It helps greatly if you steam your hair after applying oil.
Boil dried amla pieces in coconut oil until the pieces turn black and the oil darkens. Apply this oil to the hair. It strengthens hair and prevents greying.
Boil tealeaves in water and rinse your hair with this liquid 20-30 times. Then, leave on for 15-20 minutes before the final rinse.
What else can I do to promote hair health and delay greying?
Washing your hair with very hot water or using hair-dryers excessively weaken roots, and may lead to premature greying. When using a hair-dryer, take care not to point it to your scalp. Similarly, try and wash your hair with cool or lukewarm water.
Will Yoga help?
Inverted yoga poses bring a rush of blood to the scalp. This stimulates circulation and enhances hair health. Do the following poses regularly:
Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog)
Sarvangasana
Chakrasana
Other easy ways to stimulate circulation are:
When you wash your hair, keep switching from hot water to cold water.
Comb your hair regularly. A hundred strokes every night should do the trick. If your hair is curly, use a wide toothed comb.
1. Take 100 gms of curd. Add about 1 gm of black pepper to it. Mix it well and apply it evenly on the hair and scalp. Keep it for an hour and then wash with warm water and mild shampoo. Do this treatment once a week to see the remarkable difference in the texture and color of your hair . Your hair will become silkier and regular use will also make the hair dandruff-free. Curd helps in curing dandruff and making the hair softer while black pepper helps make the hair black. So one recipe gives 3 benefits - a) dandruff-free hair b) soft and silky hair and c) black hair. Doing this once a week helps in maintaining the hair color and delaying greying to a great extent. This recipe should be avoided by people who have a tendency to catch frequent colds and coughs. Curd causes a cooling effect on the head and this may worsen a cold situation.
2. Rubbing your left and right hand nails with each other is a splendid way to cure hair fall, increase hair growth and get back the lost color. The beauty of the method lies in its simplicity and the fact that it is free, needs very little time and has absolutely no side-effects. Regular use brings back lost color. The new hair that grows back is also colored and not white. You need to fold both your palms inwards and place the fingernails of both hands against each other. Then with regular swift motions, rub them against each other. This rubbing procedure increases the blood flow to the scalp and helps in strengthening the roots. It is simple and can be done anywhere anytime. Do it for about 5-7 minutes twice a day. It is tried and tested and is guaranteed to show results. It is well popularized by naturopaths and ayurvedic experts in India. You need to be patient though. You will begin to notice a difference in about a month and by the end of 6 months you will se remarkable improvements in your hair.
3. Make a paste of gooseberries and mango seeds. Apply this onto the hair and scalp and leave on for some time before washing off. When done at regular intervals, this helps delay greying.
4. Make a paste of henna in an iron vessel and leave overnight. Also add some walnut pulp in the morning. Apply this on the hair and make a neat bun. Leave for 1 - 2 hours or till it dries. Gently and carefully wash off. Apart from preventing early greying, it also adds a beautiful red tinge to the hair. It is completely natural and harmless. It also conditions hair.
5. Boil tea leaves in water. Strain and let it cool down. Mix two teaspoonfuls of salt into it and apply to hair and scalp. Wash after an hour with plain water. This process when done once in 10 days can prevent graying.

How do I bring my hair back to life?
Q. My natural hair color is very light blond, I dyed it black for about 3 years, and I've recently went back to blond, so my hair is extremely damaged. I use in leave in conditioner but my hair is still very rough when I get out of the shower until I straighten it. I know leave in conditioner is my best bet, but what are the best brands to use? Can I get it at my local Sally's?
Answer
Alright here's a list of things that you can do:
1. Start taking Biotin, Fish Oil & Women's One A Day Vitamins or you can just take Prenatal Vitamins (you don't have to be pregnant to take those). *Good prenatal vitamins: Simply One, available at iherb dot com.
2. Start using organic hair products (organic shampoo, conditioner, protein treatment, deep treatment, leave-in conditioner, jellies, pomades, hair butter, etc.) You can find these products at curlmart dot com or iherb dot com. *Good hair products are: Curl Junkie, Spiral Solutions, Kinky Curly, and Giovanni.
3. Use a wide tooth comb instead of a regular brush.
4. Do not apply any type of heat to your hair. I used to blow dry and flat iron my hair, used a heat protector and everything and my hair still got thin & brittle.
5. Massage your scalp with organic virgin coconut oil the night before you wash your hair (massage your scalp for at least 5 minutes). Sleep with the coconut oil and then wash it out the next morning. Or you can massage in coconut oil 30 minutes before you wash your hair. If you don't have coconut oil, you can use organic virgin olive oil, jojoba oil, rosemary oil, castor oil, or you can mix all of these oils together. *Good coconut oil is called Nutiva. Available at iherb dot com.
6. Use the organic shampoo once a week. If you feel that you need to wash your hair throughout the week just wash it with a light weight conditioner such as VO5 or Suave. This is called co-washing. Co-washing works only for people who use sulfate/silicone free hair products. All you have to do is wash your hair with a light conditioner the same as you would wash your hair with shampoo. Once you wash out the conditioner, put on a thicker organic conditioner (deep conditioner), leave that on for a couple minutes, then wash it out and you're done. If you're going to start using sulfate/silicone free products, make sure you wash your hair with a sulfate shampoo or you can rinse your hair with apple cider vinegar and water mixed in a bottle for the last time and then you can start with your organic routine. The whole point of this step is to wash off any silicones from your hair. You can get more information about this on naturallycurly dot com. *A good apple cider vinegar is by the brand called "Bragg". Available at iherb dot com.
7.Exercise for 30-45 minutes 4-5 times a week.
8.Drinking 8 bottles of water per day can help. I only drink about 3 bottles though because that much water makes me pee every 5 minutes.
9.Eating fruits, fish, chicken, veggies, (protein), etc. can help.
10.Wash your hair the most, 3 times a week.The least, once a week.
11.Apply a good organic leave-in conditioner once you are finished washing your hair.
12.Trim your hair every 3-5 months. (This step is important. You should really trim those dead ends.)
13.Do protein treatments once a week (or once a month, depends on how damaged your hair is). Here's how to do it: 1. Wash your hair with shampoo. 2. Dry your hair a little bit. 3. Put on the protein treatment to your hair and then apply a shower cap. You can leave the protein treatment on for up to 5 minutes through three hours. After that, wash it out, dry hair a little bit and apply the deep treatment (make sure the d.t. does not have any protein in it). Leave in the deep treatment, put on a shower cap and leave it in for up to 5 minutes through three hours. After, wash it out and you are finished.
14. Do the "pineapple" hairstyle before you go to sleep. Just do a loose pony tail at the top of your head. Use a scrunchy. Then apply a satin bonnet. You can either do that or you can sleep on a satin pillow case.
15. Do not do hairstyles that are going to be really tight such as tight pony tails, buns, braids, etc.
16. Do not use hot water when you wash your hair. Wash hair with slightly warm to cold water. Doing this can help add shine to hair and prevent frizz.
17.Get enough sleep. At least 6-8 hours per day.
