Natural ways to treat grey hair :-
Hairs undergo a natural cycle of shedding and regeneration. Old hair shed and new hair come and old hairs are replaced by new hairs. As we grow old, the rate of regeneration of hair decreases and rate of hair fall increases, and hair follicles produce less color which causes grey hair, i.e., black old hairs are replaced by grey hairs. There are many home remedies that can help prevent greying of hair.
