- We asked a dermatologist to explain why hair turns gray, and why it happens to some people as early as their 20's. According to Dr. Jennifer Chwalek, genetics will likely determine whether or not you will go gray, and how soon it will happen.

Why Some People's Hair Turns Gray - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Going grey is better than going bald.
sunnydays DDT bald means you’re a pig 🐖
going grey is better than having a receding hairline
It's not going bald, more like going transparent.
Wow lol as someone who has started to notice a shit ton of grey suddenly coming in but still with as much hair as ever, this actually helped me to not hate the grey anymore
Cuz tru that
Yeah they can dye it.
i actually think he looks pretty cool, but it obviously wouldn't work on everyone
It will. In old age.😅😅
Yeah but having gray hair in your 22 is too soon
@@Ucuz_ going bald and only having hair grow at the sides at 22 is far worse.
@@Ucuz_ I had a classmate with Grey hair at 14
@@nenabunena me 2 and he was the biggest geek.
Why did my hair turn transparent ? Can't see it anymore 😁
LMAO
Lol..wait mine too🤣🤣😂😂😄😄😃😃😀
Hahahaha EPIC!
Can you feel it?
Rofl 😂🤣
A ginger silverfox?! That's the ultimate cool hipster 👍🏽
Yes
I know right 😂 I am surprised no one else saw that.
And handsome.
and gay
I thought redheads didn't go grey.
*Why do people go gray young?*
_"this is due to, um. Genes"_
2:05
Johnny Quasar yea I’m still confused😂
Blaming everything on others, typical human trait. It is due to stress and lack of stress management from humans.
in Far East, like China, Japan etc.
people who has gray hair at young age, loves to blame it on traditional (Chinese) medicine.
if someone ask them, why do you have gray hair at such a young age? and they answer, "oh, I look Chinese herbal medicine, the doctor was a quack and it was bad" etc.
@@vishveshtadsare3160 what does that have to do with them making a video where they only tell us what we already knew?
So wear different jeans problem solved

Many young people are going gray nawadays
Yeah.... I started going gray when I was 12...🤣. now I'm 19 and 20% of my hair is gray◉‿◉
😭
More like gay
@@astrobeyondtheworld That's funny as hell 😂😂😂
Yeah, it isn't "genetics." Which is the canned response to everything.
I’m getting gray hair and I’m 16, it’s freaking over for me ;(
Grey hair should be praised and is a beautiful way nature takes it's course
Hailey Doucette NO I DONT WANT IT THIS YOUNG OMG KSKFJKD
@@thehorsesnamewasfriday8695 I mean, she's right, it's honestly what makes you unique tbh, sure there are ways to prevent it, but if it does happen, you just gotta accept it ig
And y know, if you're truly ashamed of it, just say you put some hair dye sksksk
If it's not a nice shade of grey, dye it a better looking grey and maybe put some pastel colours in too? rock that hair :)
@@susie7301 ^^ p r e a c h 🙏
My aunt went grey at 20. Even as a kid I thought it was so cool and look for grey hairs to see if mine would do that. I think it's amazing. I'm 21 now and still no greys, but when they come, and they will, I'll greet them as old lil friends.
you go gray around the same age as your parents do. im 19 and my parents started going gray in their mid 40s my dad however started balding at 22 so ill have to see where that goes. but if I dont go bald im set for just under 50 years of brown hair.
Weirdo
@@covfefe1787 u r dumb, the diet is the key, if you eat Sugary foods for a month daily you can go fully gray in two months but proper diet help you avoid greys upto ago 50 or 60
I’m 23 and have a ton of grey hair already. My parents didn’t gray until their 50s
The difference is, when you are FULLY grey. It's kinda hot. When you're part and part, it makes you look older
*what happened to joe?*
no one:
joe:
😏
Joe mama
Agustin Jr Madrigal lol
😎
I thought that was funny, too XD
Every dude with grey hair:
At least he's not balding. It's better to get gray hair early than to bald early.
That's what I'm happy about everytime some asks me "wow why do you have so much grey hair" I respond with "well atleast I still have all my hair"
Both are awful. Both will leave you looking like an old man
@Mursal Jama it helps if/when they have a large bank account
@@based7900 you can just color your hair, with nowadays development many people even coloring their hair gray. as an asian i just coloring my hair every 3-4 month with black color, no one will notice the difference. with baldness it's over unless you take damaging chemical or transplant.
Lmaooo I read this like “ Why some peoples’ hair turns gay”.... that was a moment
Thanks goodness Billie just dye her hair in grey n not a real grey,😂
a *bruh* moment
😂😂😂
But it does say that
Why'd you click ?
2:31 Why did Joe look disappointed!
Cause he's ripped
He thought he’d get to live his dream of being a stripper

Why didn't his beard and mustache hair go grey?
Each hair follicle has its own cycle, so it all doesn't change at once.
Kerfy Drezli my hair started turning grey in my mid 20’s. My brows are still black though.
It will
My hair was starting to turn grey at the age of 9-10, only my head. Even today, middle aged, only my head hair and beard are greying, the rest is black
I started getting grey hair in my early 20's, currently at 28 I have A LOT but just recently found single grey hairs in my beard / private area(lol) it's very random
My boyfriend is 21 and he’s been going grey since he was 16 too. At this point his hair is still mostly black but has grey hairs everywhere mixed with the black. I think it’s beautiful and unique and I love how it looks on him 😍 his dad is 45 and is only grey in the front of his beard and nowhere else and his great uncle went grey at 16 like my boyfriend. I wonder how the gene will pass down to his children.
Hello mam iam from India even I also has been suffering from premature grey hair and I am just 16 years old . I always get bother about that will my gf will accept my proposal or not and I am dam sure iam not going to colour my hair
“His“ children. 😂
bruh ur children too😑😐
@@noslurs7260 haha, i caught that too lol
It took my Dad until the age of 70 even begin going grey. Pretty odd!
Ditto here. Almost 70 and just got a few grey hairs. I smoke, totally stressed until i retired, myst have gotten a gene no one else in my family has. Two of my children are grey. Go figure.
This video doesn’t explain enough. I need more!!!!
why is Joe greying prematurely?
Doc: "when individuals grey before the age of 20, it's called premature greying".
At least he's not bald
I found this under recommended, I was subscribed to Tech Insider for awhile now.
I’m now 21 and this is exactly what happened to me. I started noticing grey hair at 16 and now I’m almost fully grey.
I started going gray at the age of 15. Now I'm 34 and my hair is pretty much completely grayish/white. When I was younger I had it dyed to hide the gray hair, but as my confidence about it grew bigger with time I fully embraced my gray hair and love it! ❤
that's actually pretty cool
Can we see you
IG perhaps?
I found my first gray hairs when I was about 17, now I’m 26 and I’m mostly salt and pepper now. I don’t mind the gray at all, and people seem to dig it
Not gonna lie, Joe looks great with grey hair. 👌💯
I seem to have received many of my genetic traits from my mother's side except graying by 40s. My dad's side goes gray way later in life (my dad started in his mid-50s). I'm 48 and I have a handful of gray hairs.
Me: Has one grey hair recently appear
TH-cam: Perfect time to recommend this video...
Joe’s hair looks great, it suits him nicely
I’m going to be joe when I’m older I’m already have some grey hair at 14
me, at 9-10 y/o
Me too, now I'm 23 and I had grey hair when I was 14 or 15
@@naufalulikbar do you have full grey hair? Or just 30-50%?
@@dread200 not full grey hair, but i think 30-35% grey
S T O P S T R E S S I N G **shakes intensely**
"it's genetic" knew that already. Since my mum went grey early too. Started going grey at 17
Yep my family is like this everyone starts going grey in their late 20's early 30's
I always thought he dyed his hair
Can not applying oil daily be an issue???
Cause my mom keeps telling me that all the time and I'm just 18
As long as it turns gray and don't turn loose.
I'm 28 with a lot of my hair beeing grey, never smoked, not overweight, a decent diet and not too much stress
I still think I'm lucky because I have a full head of hair, a lot of people are confused about my grey hair though when they get closer
The usual "oh wow why do you have so much grey hair? Do you have a lot of stress, because of studying?"
That's actually one thing I'll look forward to once I'm old
Ever since i was a child i was always excited to get grey hairs and honestly i would love being completely grey
I started going gray when I was 12. I was brushing my hair and ran to my mom. It stays in that patch though.
I was born in 1981 and I started going grey around 20. And, ironically, I also have red in my beard.
you are not ginge originally are ye ?
@@PHlophe I have hair of several different colours naturally around my body. The hair on my head was always a strawberry-blonde to brown whereas my facial hair always had more red.
Joseph Fuller are you balding ? If yes is your father bald ?
first place to turn gray is just in front of the ear.
that's why it's called temple, from temporal, meaning time.
my hair turned white at 10
i guess with school i got more stressed XD
Me too. My hair turned grey at 9. Everyone's been asking me about it
It has it's perks and cons XD
Yes it's the stress. Too much study and no play makes jack dull, boring and old boy.
Like completely?
I was 12 when I got my first gray hair....!!😔
Umesh
I was 12 also when I started going grey. by late teens early 20s I was 100 % grey.
This man is literally Jon Stewart from the eyes up; identical
Thanks for sharing! To add to this, causes of grey hair include chronic stress and viral infections. Chronic stress can result from emotional stress, or the stress of eating processed foods high in sugar, grains, and carbs. Consuming catalase and glutathione in foods can help with grey hair! Foods with catalase include green apples, cinnamon, cocoa and garlic! Foods with glutathione include protein foods, as some of the amino acid building blocks of protein help to make glutathione!
The same thing is happening with me right now but it started from my scalp slowly going to the base. It started for me when I was 16 (I'm 18 and turning 19 next month). I don't really know whether it's by genetics or not since my father have entirely black hair but I don't know about my mother since I only met her once when I was 5 years old and I have no clear memory of her appearance. Our neighbours said that I resemble my mother and especially with my relatives since most of my cousins hair turns white during their teens. I never dye my hair once before and the way the gray/white hair is very stylish (as my classmates have told me. And no it is not itchy). I'll do more updates by editing this message next year.
I am 14, & just a little bit of my hair is gray
Oh damn pubic hair turning gray before you even have it 😂
Same damn 😂😂
@@RespectedDesperado lmao imagine his first pubic hair coming out grey
Ive got a hair product Ad!! Before this video!
Oh... It's you, green goblin...
I am 20 years old, I have some white hair. I hope I go completely by 30.
As a women who started going grey at sixteen and spending the next 30+ years trying to hide that fact, the reason isn't why I went grey but learning to accept that it happened and embracing it, which is harder than you think as it does age you a lot and you need to find a very good hair stylist that can show your hair at its best, it doesn't take much to go from chic to frumpy when you are rocking grey.
Im 21 and i have gray hair... but a lot of people find me sexy(maybe because im good-looking, they say) so i think it is a blessing in disguise
😅😅😅😅😅

I started going gray during my early life at uni, it was around 8 years ago. Now I have quite apparent gray hair especially compared to my fellows who're at the same age but not as much as Joe has. Even some of my nose hair (idk what that's called in english) have gone gray. I've been told million of times that 'oh, you're growing old too fast' or 'oh you look young at distant, but when I see you closely, you're an old man' or 'OMG, that's a lot of gray hair for young man like you'. Tired of hearing this, I always reply 'yeah, I'm the next george clooney you know'
This superbly nice mixed with deep blues.
i dont have patches of gray hair. i just see a few strands there and there. usually i'd pluck them and it grows back as black... but idk about the back of my head. i dont really see it being a problem besides having insecurities around that, but i dye and bleach my hair regularly so its great that it gets covered.
theirs kid in some of my classes who's hair is staring to grow grey, he's 13
"pheomelanin is what we se in blondes and redheads" *cuts to a picture of a woman with black roots*
can't hair colours be changed without applying dye
Has anyone tried collagen peptides or some form of collagen powder for grey hairs. My husband drank it for 3 months & it reversed his grey hairs that he had. Its weird but it worked. I just dont know scientifically how or why??
I started getting some grey hairs at age 16. I'm 23 now and have ~5 grey hairs that I'm able to see. We noticed that my sister started getting grey hairs at age ~12. It's genetic for us 😊
Is it true what they say that if you develop premature grey hair, you can no longer go bald?
Thanksb science insider 😊
one of my friend start graying at the age of 8
Thanks, Dad. You started greying at 17, me at 19. Both totally grey by 25.
I am 14, & there is some gray on my hair, but it’s very deep in my hair that no one sees my hair gray. My dad is 48, & he has gray hair since he is almost 50
Im 22 and i have almost a fourth part of my hair gray. Its not that bad, i wont dye it. Its somehow a new powerfull characteristic of mine and i kinda feel happy when people recognize me in the distance thanks to both my curly and grey hair. 😊
Im so glad i dont have this problem. My secret? I started balding at 18 so now i just shave my head
@Jose Moran Depends. some guys can rock a bald look
randomjuice is your father bald ?
Why is no one talking 'bout the girl at 1:16 though????
SHE HELLA CUTE 😍😍😍
The blonde one looks cuter imo.
Thanks guyszzz!!
My boyfriend’s hair is naturally black but started going grey when he was 20. He does not have a full head of grey hair, more like salt and pepper hair. It definitely looks good on him.
take copper and zinc supplements and you'll get your color back
I’m 16 too and My Hair is turning grayyy 😆😂
Are you gonna dye it?
My classmates are too tho
this is pretty much true! my mom has that greying hair gene whereas my dad, who is currently 57, has almost no grey hair
Series question - why is my pubic hair receding? I’m 35 man and need some answers.
I started growing grey hair at 20 now I'm 23 and I feel so insecure about them, I dye my hair but they keep appearing.
Let them come
Dying hair can cause baldness.. embrace greyness.. embrace hairs.. because if you go bald its harder to embrace being bald.. everything about human is beautiful but its society that bully you unfortunately.
My pubic hair also starts greying...help me out
Jithin Joseph then wax it
Nonce
This is not the right place to talk about that.
you should trim
It’s all edited it’s the internet get over it
I started growing little strand of gray hairs at 10 yrs old :,)
My fiancé has had a full head of gray hair since he was in his early 20s. I have had a ton of gray hairs since I was in elementary school.
Well I knew it was genetic, all but one of my siblings (including myself) all started going grey in our teens just like my mom and her parents. My grandmother was completely white by 22. Grandfather salt and pepper grey by 26. Now in his 40s my one brother is no longer looking like a proper member of the family lol
He is so lucky I honestly cant wait to go grey I love it so much
Ummmmmm
I loveeee gray hair...I think it looks graceful and sophisticated ☺️
I'm already going gray a bit at 23 and I can't wait to go full gray
I'm not only a client, I'm the president.
In short: “We have absolutely no idea!”
Idk cheif
I’ve had grey/gray hair since I was 14!
Me and the other kids at my middle school started having our first or possibly 10th gray hair already .-.

ew no
Wow
Can using a certain type of shampoo cause premature graying?
I noticed my first gray hairs at 14 but my mid 20s it was pretty much a 50-50 now at 32 it's about 80-20 in favour of gray or "silver" as I say. My beard is about 50-50 and my chest hair is getting it now, I don't care to he honest, my wife like it dyed but I'm in favour of the gray natural look
I want my hair grey looks hot though...
I am indian i got grey hair at 16 and 60% are at 19
And my skin is dark thats mean i don't have deficiency of melanin then why my hair turn grey ?
*your soul is dead.*
Yay finally a lifetime question answered.
Can we change it back to the original color? Naturally?
No shame, Joe! Wear your gray with pride! Looks good on you.
i'm 27 i have to dye my hair every 3 weeks i hate it .....my grandpa was like joe his haid was basically all white when he married my grandma at 30 ...thanks granpa
Wear it white proudly
I've been sprouting stark white hairs since the second grade. Still got my usual colour too, but with streaks of white
Many of my 33 year old friends are already going grey
.. Im not. I am a mix of two hair colours. The front is easily bleached every summer and the back dark brown. My millennium hubby is already a silver fox.
I like Joe, and I don't have problem at all with his gray hair 😅👍
