Black Pepper to cover Gray Hair {Reader’s Tip}

Swathy · May 25, 2012 · 20 Comments

I received this comment which I thought would be particularly helpful for everyone struggling with gray hairs instead of resorting to hair colors. 

“I don’t have hair loss problem but my hair is dry and has lots of gray hair. I am applying yogurt mixed with black pepper thrice a week started this week. This is helpful to cover grey hair and my hair had become soft and looking darker.”

Thanks a lot to the person who has dropped in this comment 🙂

      hey…I haven’t used it ever but I don’t think it dyes the hair. I think it more like darkens the hair all over just like sesame oil or mustard oil!!!

    Hi Swati,
    your tips look interesting and easy to follow.
    I’d try out this black pepper and yoghurt one for sure.
    Of late, may be from past 2 months i’m observing my front hair turning grey. I’m 27 years old. Upto which age is it called as premature greying? After which age is greying called normal?
    If you have any more tried and tested methods of turning greying hair into their normal black colour or to stop further hair greying, please do let me know.
    I definitetly don’t want to apply any artificial hair colours or hair dyes,
    Please help.
