Does Hair Turn Gray From The Root Or The Tip

rpgeek asked:

When i was showering this morning i saw a strand of my hair that is half black (my natural colour) and half gray.

The one nearer to the root is black.

I have many strands of gray hair.

    Gray hair starts from the root. A strand of hair does not turn gray all of a sudden, it grows in that way.

    If your hair is black black you should try using henna (assuming you want to get rid of it)

    As a person who is constantly coloring my hair to cover the gray, I can tell you that in my experience the hair is always gray coming out of the folicle. I actually pluck out my grays with a tweezer and can guarantee that the gray part is at the root. The hair outside the head is the normal (or colored) hair and new growth, if it is destined to be gray, will come out of your head gray. I find it unbelieveable that it could be the other way around in your case, meaning dark at the root and gray on the end.
