White Hair Problems, Causes and Prevention

It’s not uncommon for your hair to change as you get older. As a younger person, maybe you had a full head of brown, black, red, or blonde hair. Now that you’re older, you may notice thinning in certain areas of your head, or your hair may change from its original color to gray or white.

But over time, hair follicles can lose pigment, resulting in white hair.
