Tips On

Our society wants women to grow old gracefully. But for many who want to showcase their physical attributes, it

would not be fair to expect them to stop looking young just because they have passed their 40s.

Good-looking older women are never too old to look sexy. The only time a woman should not look old is when she does not

want to. Yes it is true that “50 percent of the population has 50 percent gray

hair at age 50.” After all, just like skin, hair too changes its texture with age.

It is also true that many women proudly sport a gray or silver mane. But for countless women, the first appearance of gray hair is an unendurable trepidation.

What is it that causes gray hair?

Normal aging—Graying hair generally is associated with growing old. While gray hair and aging are strongly linked, the premature appearance of silver strands is strongly linked to an individual’s genes.

Ethnicity—A study reports that Caucasians tend to get gray hair earlier than others, followed by Asians and then Africans.

Stress—An expert in dermatology opines that stress, even though it does not cause gray hair directly, is implicated many skin and hair issues.

Lifestyle—Needless to say, a healthy lifestyle consisting of good eating habits and regular exercise helps in retention of youthful looks including the appearance of hair. Dermatologists also recommend foods packed with vitamins, nutrients, and antioxidants to help protect hair from turning gray.

Medical conditions—Some medical conditions have the potential to contribute to graying of hair. A prominent among these is vitiligo, a condition wherein the skin begins to lose its ability to produce melanin.

Thyroid disorders and vitamin B12 deficiencies also can cause gray hair.

While scientists have been able to predict the arrival of gray hair, how and why hair ages is still not well understood.

By unlocking the secrets, scientists are hoping for a better understanding of the aging process at the cellular level.

Remember, gray hair does not have to add years to your looks as long as you keep the colors vibrant.

While graying is irreversible, correction via right nutrition can at least prevent it.

Prevent silver strands from dulling your features with products that contain UV filters.

On hair that has turned more than 50 percent gray, dermatologists recommend using a shampoo with blue or violet undertones.

There are a number of choices for the best way to grow out gray hair gracefully.

Highlights—Hair strands are lightened to blend the gray with the rest

of your hair. Avoid powder—When you go gray, your skin looks washed out and

lackluster. Beauty specialists recommend use of a luminizing and

moisturizing foundation, with very little or no application of powder. Wear blush—A blush makes any complexion more vibrant. If you’re

fair skinned, choose a bright peony, light-skinned rose, or olive. On the

other hand, if you’re dark complexioned choose a rich pink. Brighten your eyes—To make your eyes look bright, sleeping well

along with eating and drinking right helps. But you need to do something else too.

De-puff your eyes with cold cucumber slices, chilled green or black tea bags, or cold raw potato slices.

Use eye creams—After washing your face, using a good under-

eye cream or gel to moisturize. Some creams have de-puffing features mixed in.

Get the redness out—Red eyes aggravate looks. Use anti-redness drops preferably after consulting your doctor. The whiteness of your eyes will look whiter and make you look healthy and bright.

Make your eyes look bigger—Or create an illusion to make them look bigger. Using light shadow on the lid and brow helps.

maintenance. The best way to grow out gray hair gracefully is consistent upkeep to keep it free from looking dull and drab.
