Get a Copper supplement of no more that 10 mg per day may be in a multivitamin , that some people take to lose the grey hair which go`s back to normal ..............Still you need to make sure you do not get for that 1gram per day or problem with the kidney can happen , and if there is any side effects like stomach problems them you just need to cut back for a season as the copper metal may be building up
People should not take copper supplements, too much copper causes problems in the body. It won't change gray hair anyway. If people don't like their gray, they will just have to dye. I don't know why so many people don't like it, I think it's attractive, and actually suits many a lot more than their natural (or dyed) colors. I get FAR more compliments now that I am growing out my dyed brown hair and letting my silver shine. Mine natural hair is very light in the front and kind of "frosted" over my brown in back.

I think a lot depends on the color of gray you have and your complexion. I worked with a woman who had stunning silvery gray hair and a flawless, peaches and cream complexion. I'd take that combination any day of the week. Or a lovely salt and pepper with a darker complexion. A blah gray with a sallow complexion just looks tired.
So, yes, it's mostly genetic, but there is much that scientists haven't discovered yet. Furthermore, genes don't mean genetic expression. Genes don't necessarily turn on. Scientists seem optimistic of an ability to develop something that at least mostly halts the graying of hair. I believe it will involve nutrients, like maybe a cocktail of synthesized, very concentrated versions of whatever. Also, people underestimate how common nutrient deficiencies are: magnesium and vitamin D are two of the most common and, as I said, have been linked to early graying.

It comes down to genes, and how quickly you age--stress and smoking are two things that will make the grey come in faster. I've never heard of food being a way to prevent grey hair, though.
My mother had black hair, dark blue eyes, and pale skin. Her hair went grey very, very slowly. She's 80 now and it's just in the past couple of years that her hair has become predominantly silver. It's a lovely colour, though. She had salt-and-pepper black and grey hair for quite a long time before it went all silver.
I keep mine short [crew cut] so any grey on the sides gets trimmed down and doesnt really show
My younger brother was about 75% gray by age 38. He keeps his hair super short (crew cut) and it was blond to start with, so you really don't even realize it's almost all gray now unless you're really looking and focusing on it.
My bf is 48, went through a lot in life, eats unhealthy, and has not one gray hair.
I am 39, always had a good life, live and eat healthy, some grey hair.
Not fair.
True the notion of stress causing grany hair is an overblown myth. My dad used to ta,e some protein shake or something along those lines, and it kind of made is hair darker, which he is gray all over. But he did not take it for long and he does not recall it's name.
I have a friend who does energy work. Started on horses and then horse owners and then she started working with the terminally ill. She's an amazing, wonderful person. Anyway, I couldn't believe when she told me her age because she had no noticeable gray hair. She said she thought it had to do with the energy. Who knows? I used to make fun of that stuff until I thought about the movement of blood and the nerve impulses in our bodies being all energy. And that's what it's really all about.
She practices many techniques, Bowen, EFT, light...
My mother is 90 and she only has a little gray streak in her hair that she didn't get until she was 75. Her father was the same. Neither one of them did energy work. My hair on the other hand was gray by the time I was 30. So was my father's. I have lines in the same place on my face, too. And we had very different lives. It's just heredity.
