Reduce white hair

What formulas are there to cover gray hair?

Hair graying is a natural and inevitable phenomenon that affects us all. It generally occurs with age, but in some cases can appear as early as age 25. For those who are unwilling to accept it, various solutions are available today to mask these gray hairs, for a varying period of time.

Repigment your white hair with a course of food supplements

The white hair food supplement treatment can help you fight against the appearance of white hair . Developed by the Biocyte laboratory, Biocyte Keratin Forte Coloration is the first food supplement whose action of recoloring gray and white hair by oral administration has been proven. Formulated with black keratin rich in melanin, this food supplement repigments the hair from the root by acting at the very heart of the hair bulb. Keratin Forte Coloration is to date the only food supplement whose soluble and bioactive formula not only effectively repigments the hair, but also preserves its natural color. For optimal effectiveness of the food supplement from the Biocyte hair range , strictly respect the recommended duration of the treatment.
Melanin is the molecule responsible for skin color, but also hair color. Today, two types of melanin are distinguished. Eumelanins are responsible for blonde to reddish hues. Pheomelanins give brown colors. Melanin is produced by specialized cells located within the pigmentation unit of the hair follicle. This pigment is then incorporated into the cells responsible for the synthesis of keratin , the main component of hair. But like most cells in the body, the cells producing melanin, or melanocytes, have a limited lifespan. When the stock of stem cells is depleted, those that remain fulfill their function before disappearing completely without being replaced. Since the hair is no longer pigmented, it loses its natural color and gradually turns white. If the Biocyte food supplement is effective, it is because it acts directly on melanocytes.

Covering up your white hair with permanent coloring

Widely acclaimed, permanent hair coloring is incredibly effective at masking gray hair . The coloring is actually composed of colored pigments, alkaline agents including ammonia, and hydrogen peroxide. Once the color is applied, the ammonia opens the scales to deposit the artificial pigments at the heart of the hair fiber and closes them to permanently seal the new color. However, there are coloring treatments formulated without ammonia. In this case, the latter is replaced by a mixture of oxidants in a reduced dose. Although the formulas differ, the results are the same.
Coloring doesn't necessarily have to be applied to all of your hair. Depending on the amount of gray hair to cover and your desires, you can opt for highlights and possibly balayage. This technique, which consists of lightening or darkening your natural color by coloring highlights, is particularly suitable for blondes. Be careful, opting for coloring gray hair requires adopting a suitable hair care routine. Start by washing your hair with a treatment rich in nourishing and antioxidant agents. In addition to cleansing the hair, this product nourishes the hair fiber and protects the hair color. Follow with the application of a conditioner which, thanks to its emollient action, will effectively detangle and soften the hair. Also apply a mask once a week. Use only specific products for color-treated hair, ideally from the same range.

Hide your white hair with makeup

For less invasive and radical white hair coloring, opt for:
— Mascara to be applied strand by strand to the hair to be made up. It is especially suitable for women who still have only a few gray hairs. For a more natural look, choose your shade chart carefully.
— Color-enhancing shampoos that not only restore shine to hair, but also delay the reappearance of gray hair. They also help create beautiful shades.
— Colored sprays that camouflage gray hair remarkably well. They are available in a variety of shades. These products don't add any texture to the hair. They color it and help maintain the illusion of natural hair until your next shampoo.
For those who don't yet want to take the plunge and color their hair, nothing beats a pretty hairstyle. To hide those few gray hairs, opt for a fuzzy part and a hairstyle that adds volume. For a beautiful result, make sure your hair is healthy. To repair breakage and fight against dry hair, use Biocyte'sKeratine forte mask . This strong keratin mask repairs, nourishes, and protects hair thanks to a formula based on pure keratin, Boket, and plant-based ceramides. This treatment, which can be used as a conditioner or a mask, is ideal for damaged hair or hair suffering from a clear lack of volume.
