This Woman Uses a Cup of Potato Skins To Get Rid of Gray Hair On Early Ages



Grey hair is a common issue of all people, especially after the 30s, and while some people love the gray hair that appears from time to time, others struggle to hide them with hair dyes. However, this is an individual issue and people start going gray at various stages in life.
Women usually solve this issue by dying the hair with dyes, which are, unfortunately, loaded with harmful chemicals.
Namely, a single box of hair dye contains over 5000 different chemicals, many of them proven to be carcinogenic. According to statistics, even 1/3 of women older than 18, and 10% of men older than 40 use hair dyes.

Here is a list of some of the most dangerous chemicals in hair dyes:

Resorcinol: This toxic dye is an allergen that disrupts the endocrine system, and may also lead to irritations of the scalp.
DMDM Hydantoin: In the hazard list by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), it is listed at moderate/high, since its by-product is formaldehyde. It is also included in polymers, herbicides, and floor waxes.
PPD: This is the abbreviated form of para-phenylenediamine, commonly used as a wood preservative, and in those cases, the contact with skin is avoided. Its combination with Hydrogene Peroxide is extremely toxic and causes cancer.
Parabens: The two most commonly used parabens preservatives include Propylparabens and Methylparabens, often included in various hair care products, and may cause irritations of the skin, and severe allergies.
Ammonia: It is an irritating and highly corrosive gas, which has a suffocating smell, and may lead to lung irritations and burns.
