I applied a honey mask to my face, and after 15 minutes, I washed it off. Then, about two hours later, I went to a parlor for eyebrow plucking and noticed I had a white hair in my eyebrows. I'm worried now. The lady at the parlor said the honey might have caused the hair to turn white. Is there any truth to that?

No, honey does not make hair turn white. Honey is often used in hair masks and treatments to moisturize and nourish the hair. If you are experiencing premature graying of hair, it is recommended to consult with a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment.
