Classification and treatment of dry and yellow hair

The main causes of dry and yellow hair include: hypothyroidism, severe malnutrition, severe iron deficiency anemia and recovery from a serious illness, which lead to a decrease in melanin in the body, resulting in a lack of the basic substance for black hair, and black hair gradually turns into yellowish brown or light yellow. In addition, frequent perming and washing with alkaline water or laundry detergent can also damage the hair and turn it yellow. The following are dietary therapies for gray hair caused by several causes.

1. Malnutrition-related yellow hair:

It is mainly caused by severe malnutrition. Attention should be paid to adjusting diet and improving the body's nutritional status. Eggs, lean meat, soybeans, peanuts, walnuts, and black sesame seeds not only contain large amounts of animal protein and plant protein, but also contain cystine and cysteine, which are the main components of hair, and are the best foods for hair care.

2. Yellow hair due to acidic body constitution:

It is related to the increase of acidic toxins in the blood, and is also related to excessive fatigue and excessive consumption of sweets and fats. You should eat more kelp, fish, fresh milk, beans, mushrooms, etc. In addition, eating more fresh vegetables and fruits, such as celery, rapeseed, spinach, Chinese cabbage, citrus, etc., can help neutralize acidic toxins in the body and improve the yellowing condition.

3. Yellow hair caused by copper deficiency:

In the process of hair melanin production, an important copper-containing enzyme "tyrosinase" is lacking. Copper deficiency in the body can affect the activity of this enzyme and cause hair to turn yellow. Foods rich in copper include animal liver, tomatoes, potatoes, celery, fruits, etc.

4. Radiant yellow hair:

Long-term exposure to radiation, such as working with computers, radar, and X-rays, can cause yellowing of hair. You should pay attention to supplementing foods rich in vitamin A, such as pork liver, egg yolks, milk, carrots, etc.; eat more foods that can resist radiation, such as seaweed, high-protein foods, and drink more green tea.

5. Functional yellow hair:

The main reasons are mental trauma, fatigue, seasonal endocrine disorders, drug and chemical stimulation, etc., which lead to disorders in the production of melanin and melanocytes in the body. People with this type of yellow hair should eat more sea fish, black sesame seeds, alfalfa, etc. The active ingredients in alfalfa can replicate melanocytes and regenerate melanin; black sesame can biochemically produce melanin; the niacin in marine fish can dilate capillaries, enhance microcirculation, make qi and blood flow smoothly, eliminate melanin production barriers, and make hair look healthy and beautiful.

6. Pathogenic yellow hair:

Certain diseases, such as iron deficiency anemia and recovering from a serious illness, can cause hair to turn from black to yellow. In this case, you should eat more black beans, walnut kernels, fennel, etc. Black beans contain melanin generators, which promote the production of melanin. The aisole in cumin helps convert melanogens into melanocytes, making hair darker and glossier.

If it is a simple hair problem (such as damage after perming, long-term use of curling irons), you can do hair care 1-2 times a week. Generally, you can apply conditioner or plant essential oil containing high vitamin E (such as argan oil) to the ends of your hair and leave it for 2 minutes before washing it off, or apply a hair mask and leave it for 2 minutes before washing it off. It is recommended to go to the barber shop for hair treatment (usually once every two weeks), which can effectively control hair problems.

The above is an introduction to the reasons why girls' hair turns yellow. After understanding it, we know the reasons why girls' hair turns yellow, so we should not blindly nourish them. In addition, we must pay attention to maintaining good living habits in our daily lives, exercise more and maintain a happy mood.
