Getting to the root of gray hair

Some new research is getting to the bottom of gray hair. The good news is we're living longer and we get to see our gray. They bad news is we get to live long enough to see our gray.

Our hair naturally produces hydrogen peroxide. As we age, our ability to break down hydrogen peroxide diminishes and our hair becomes gray.


What accounts for why some people go gray faster than others? Researchers say genetics play a role.


There are some hot gray haired people out there. Is there anything for appealing than a full head of gray? Who are some of your favorite gray haired people?
