My one gray hair.


Sooo for the past few nights I've been popping 2 Nyquils at about 1 or 2am to help my cold. Yesterday was the first night I haven't took Nyquil...I slept so peacefully, even more peaceful than when I took the damn Nyquil.

I slept sooooo peaceful until I heard a bunch of hispanics outside of my house EARLY ass hell trying to pull out the tree stump in front of my house. Of course, they're all giggling and yapping their Spanish shit while I'm tossing and turning. I fall back asleep and then I had the urge to pee...which usually means it's time to wake up.

After I use the bathroom I look in the mirror and see this BIG ASS GREY HAIR. Just popping out of my part. It was an obnoxious one...it was probably 2 inches..it was screaming 'HEY TIEN LOOKY HERE!'. I was so stressed for the whole day about this grey hair. So I decided to do some research :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'Melanin is a pigment that is naturally produced in the hair follicle and “injected” into the hair fibers as the protein is formed and pushed out of the head. It’s the same kind of melanin that gives your skin its color. There are two basic types of melanin (eumelanin and pheomelanin) that are responsible for every hair color from brown and black to blonde and red.

No one knows why hair follicles stop producing melanin. Genetics mostly. There just gets to be a point where the melanocytes (the melanin producing cells) just stop producing. Thus you get gray hair.'


So there you have it.
