If you are young and when you stand before the mirror and see white hairs on your head, then don’t get frustrated!!
Appearance of grey or white hairs is quite common in old age but many these days in their young age( 20s and 30s) also get these and face lots of humiliation etc from others. The black hair colour of our hairs is due to the presence of melanin and when this is not produced then we would get grey hairs.
