I'm 22 and I'm really worried about my hair turning gray so quickly. I've heard about this product called Melatine Altris 5 and was wondering if it could help with my premature graying. It feels like every day more of my hair turns gray, and now almost half of it is gray. Do you think Melatine Altris 5 could work for me, or is there something else I should try? I'm really hoping to find a solution for this.

That could be premature greying of hair which is reversible,no need to worry consume balanced diet and maintain healthy life style.
