Team BetterButter | January 18, 2018

Though some say that a single strand of grey hair in your hair means that your grandparents love you a lot, when that single grey hair develops into 2 or 3 grey hairs during your early 20s or 30s, it is nothing short of a nightmare!

Greying of hair is mainly caused due to the loss of melanin in your hair. Premature greying of hair is a largely genetic problem that is heightened even more due to the stress and pressure of today’s lifestyle. However, fret not! Take this as a sign to pay more attention to your hair and devote more time to hair care.
