I saw white hair in my beard how can we stop it?

Not yet: At this point you can't stop white hairs from appearing. It is a part of aging. However it can also be due to stress, so if you try to lessen the stress, that can help. There was a cream out there that stops grey/white hair but it isnt on the market yet.

Possibly Not.: Whitening of hair is related to genetic predisposition. Age of initial graying is largely a matter of genetics. However stressors: nutritional deficiencies, chemotherapy, traumatic head injuries, low vitamin B levels, zinc deficiency, severe illness, surgery & marked emotional stress may impact earlier depigmentation in people who are already predisposed to gray hair. Aging is a significant factor
