A member asked:

Is plucking gray hair a reason of increasing them? or it doesn't matter plucking them out ?

It doesn't matter: They will probably grow back in grey, but they will not increase as a result of plucking.

It does not matter: If you do not like them, you can pluck them but most likely they will keep coming up unless the cause is known(? stress) or the3 cause can be eliminated, which you may not be able to do.

Plucking won't ^: them. First thing to know is that genetics plays the biggest role in early graying- we can't change our genetics. To reduce risks of early graying & hair loss: 1. Don't Smoke. 2. Correct Zinc, Vit B or other nutritional deficiencies. Vegans are at risk for Vit B12 deficiencies. 3. Ensure that your thyroid is healthy. 4. Diets> Eggs are rich in biotin. Dark greens are high in Vit A & C. Omega
