Here is the answer

Back in the days men used the razor blade.
With the razor blade, the grey hair only comes at the ‘normal time.’

However, with the advent of shaving creams and certain types of powders, men tend to dump the regular use of the shaving stick. Especially the busy/affluent/ rich ones.

The creams and the powders genetically impact the areas where they’re constantly applied, and that leads to the white/grey hairs.

I use razor and I don’t have such problem.
I don't use the shaving cream and I have some silver strands

TODAY ; everyone on NL should learn this new thing about grey hair. It’s a medical condition called POLIOSIS.

The white hair caused by poliosis is due to a lack of a pigment called melanin in the hair follicles.

The condition is usually associated with the hair of the head. It can affect any hairy area of the body, however, including the eyebrows and eyelashes.

While poliosis itself is not a harmful condition, it is associated with various other medical issues. Some of these are harmful, and some are not.

Thank me later if you can read more about it. Get enlightened

This has been on my mind for a long time, thanks for opening this topic @OP.

I think it has to be related with our feeding habits and environment, genes aside. There is need for research on this as the trend is getting alarming.

Please political warriors should stay clear of this discussion, go and fight elsewhere I beg

Those days grey hairs and bald head were all evidence of an advancing age group but dis days hardship dey make person old quick... D hardship these days don dey affect every body gene
Those days all U had to do was go to school or learn handiwork or trade.. These days we go to school and have to have multiple streams of income to even make ends meet.

Good point, however, there has been studies to show that stress does NOT lead to greying. What it does is that it could accelerate balding but not greying.

Let's keep this convo going!

Good observation, however, I have never used shaving cream or powder to shave and still I am greying.

Pennywise:
My theory is that if you have hair that grows rapidly, soon the pigment producing cells die out leaving your facial or scalp hair free of pigment. I have had them as far back as I can remember. My hair dey grow like craze. But suffer still join sha oooo, I no lie. The genetic factor then becomes the different hair growth rate among different people.

Interesting

Consider this proposition, " You are what you eat"

In Nigeria in the 80's 90's and maybe longer we didn't have GM modified foods, we didn't have our vegetables soaked in pesticides, we ate 100% organic.

Our meat wasn't juiced up with hormones and antibiotics.

Check out the levels of pesticide in corn and black eye peas it's scary. Add our predominantly sedentary life styles and it's clear thier is a problem.

What is the impact of all this, I don't know exactly but we see cancers and other ailments that were hitherto very uncommon. Could thier be a connection to premature greying POSSIBLY

This has been my exact thought! The change in our dietary habits might be strongly linked to this early greying epidemic. Our agricultural sector needs to be researched into to give a rough picture of what the impact of all these new ways of producing food is doing to Nigerians.

In those days our parents dreaded grey hairs and the main hair style was afro. They had their hair fully grown, white hair is more pronounced when the hair is overgrown. So one of the duty of female children then was to pick out their fathers white hair. Those that didn't like picking would dye their hair. I saw my sister picking my dads hair when he was in his late forties. Now today we see many men in their forties looking like boys and they don't care about picking their white hair or dyeing their hair. They look and feel like boys and don't feel ashamed of thier white hair. Some of our parents were already established so we remember them as fully grown men from our childhood but they were actually like the young hustling men with grey beards today. The times have changed but grey beards has been there longer than we know it is just our perception of time.

To all the nitwits and dimwits, suffer head don cloud una brain finish..

Here is the reason


The bad news: The premature graying problem is largely genetic. Hair follicles contain pigment cells that produce melanin, which gives your tresses their color. When your body stops generating melanin, hair presents itself as gray, white, or silver. (Melanin also provides moisture, so when less is produced, hair becomes brittle and loses its bounce.) "If your parents or grandparents grayed at an early age, you probably will too," says David Bank, director of the Center for Dermatology, Cosmetic, and Laser Surgery in Mt. Kisco, N.Y. "There's not much you can do to stop genetics.

Eating genetically modified foods could potentially be the cause. Corn etc

Semovita, gala, etc are made from Corn.

Bro, I want to ask a question: how did your greying hair affect your relationships or how ladies perceive you, if at all it did? (I am just trying to learn from a typical person who has experienced it).
There was this girl I was dating last year. She's was 23, and I was 3 years older. One day she told me "I know you have a wife and children in the village and you're here deceiving me." I asked how, and she said, are you not seeing white hairs all over your head? You are not a kid now. Are you not up to 40 years

You mean stress brings out white hairs and low paying jobs grin grin
To some extent, stress is the reason for early grey hairs, bald head and ageing. Our forefathers didn't experience this things early because they only engage in physical stress. But today, we face physical, mental, emotional and even spiritual stress.

I think it is in the gene/evolution . I wouldn't agree it boils down to stress.
By the way, what do you guys think about balding at a young age? I am 20 and I am balding slowly.
This is normal. My younger brother went fully bald at 17 but at near 40 I'm only going through the early stages.
I think you should accept it. It gives a manly look to otherwise soft faces.

Fully bald? angry

Not 100%. I mean he lost enough hair to make him look 40 years old.
I forgot bald men don't lose all their hair, only 40 - 72%.
