Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com

I have read your query and can understand your concern.

Relax and make yourself stress-free. Causes of premature hair graying may include nutritional deficiencies, the use of harsh shampoos containing chemicals, the use of blow dryers, exposure to toxins or pollutants in water, hard water, autoimmune causes, or genetic predisposition. I suggest the following for you.

  1. Reduce exposure to irritants.

  2. Avoid frequent hair styling procedures, such as using a blow dryer or a hot iron straightener.

  3. Avoid hot shower baths.

  4. Use lukewarm water instead.

  5. Use Triclenz (Betaine, Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate, Cocamide Mea) hair cleanser daily for one month.

  6. Use mild shampoo twice weekly.

  7. Apply Greyex (Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis) solution at night for one month.

  8. Take 200 mg of Tablet Calcium Pantothenate once a day, after dinner, for 15 days.

  9. Eliminate stress.

  10. Get vitamin B13, vitamin D3, serum ferritin, and thyroid profile tests done.

Please reply to me if you have any further concerns or questions.

I hope this information helps you.

Thank you.
