Even though white or grey hair is a sign of ageing and usually occurs as we grow older, we often come across younger people having a strand or two of grey hair. Needless to say, it’s embarrassing. Now you always have the opting of dyeing or hair or colouring it instead but while these may help temporarily hide your problem, they won't help get rid of it. What you need is a way to get rid of grey hair for good. Here is a list of some tried and tested methods to help you out.

Take 2 tbsp of black tea and add it to one cup of water. Brew it well for a good 20 minutes and then drain the tea. Set the mixture aside until it cools down and once done apply it to your hair and scalp. Let it sit for an hour and then rinse with shampoo and conditioner.

Take a handful of curry leaves and add it to three tbsp of coconut oil. Boil this mixture for a bit and then drain the mixture. Let the oil cool down, then apply it to your scalp and hair and massage well. Leave it on for at least half an hour or if you're comfortable with it, leave it on overnight. Rinse with shampoo and conditioner.

Fold the fingers of both your palms and bring them together. Rub the surface of fingernails of both hands vigorously leaving out the thumbs. This strengthens the nerves of your fingernails that are connected to your scalp; thereby rubbing them stimulates blood flow to prevent pre-mature graying of hair and increasing hair growth.

If you’re using an over-the-counter anti-dandruff shampoo daily, about time you stopped it. Pick a milder, organic shampoo instead. The harsh chemicals in the shampoos and conditioner are known to affect the product of the pigment and cause hair fall too.

If you use hair dyes of any sort, it's important to remember that these usually come with a lot of chemicals in them. And this can lead to premature greying of your hair. So, switch to natural hair dyes like tea and coffee dyes. All you have to do is boil them for 15 minutes. Let them cool, add essential oils and mix. And voila! You'll end up with a natural hair dye.

Say goodbye to all those chemical ridden conditioners and switch to natural conditioners instead. Opt for a paste of gooseberries and black walnuts and add essential oils to the paste. This will easily work as a hair pack that you can use thrice a week. It'll keep your hair feeling soft while also reducing premature greying.

Amla is like a miracle ingredient that has multiple health benefits so it's no surprise that it has found its way here too. Take 4-5 amlas, remove the seeds and then crush them into a paste. Apply this paste to your scalp and leave it on for 15-20 minutes. Then, rinse your hair with water and you'll see how well this works for you in no time.

Yoga is one of the most beneficial things you can do for your body. Not only does it keep your body fit, but it also de-stresses your mind and adds a youthful glow to your face. Asanas like Halasana, Trikonasana, Bhujangasana, Matsyasana, and Adho Mukha Savasana increases blood circulation at your head, thus promoting new hair growth.
