Attention parents: It's not your kids that are making you go gray. Your hair is simply building up too much hydrogen peroxide. Bottle-blondes may be a fan, but hydrogen peroxide, which is produced naturally in the human body, interferes with melanin, the pigment that colors our hair and skin.
The body also produces the enzyme catalase, which breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Or at least it does for a while. As we age, catalase production tails off, leaving nothing to transform the hydrogen peroxide into chemicals the body can release.

I read that the other day. Now tell me why my dad only has a few gray hairs, he's in his mid 60's, and I have no gray and I'm in my...um..I guess almost upper 40's. And, no, the answer isn't "Just For Men". :biggrin:

My personal theory on your hair.

What happens to the hair on top of your head is due to your job. What happens on the sides is from your family.

Think about the hair on those you know and see if it fits.
