Bimatoprost is a safe and effective treatment for making eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker.
research Graying of Hair Produced by Ingestion of Phenylthiocarbamide
Eating phenylthiocarbamide made all the rats' hair go gray, but some returned to their original color after stopping.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway Activates Melanocyte Stem Cells In Vitro and In Vivo
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway can activate melanocyte stem cells and may help regenerate hair follicles.

research Tyrosinase Depletion Prevents the Maturation of Melanosomes in the Mouse Hair Follicle
Reducing Tyrosinase prevents mature color pigment cells from forming in mouse hair.
research Dermal Adipose Tissue Secretes HGF to Promote Human Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Fat under the skin releases HGF which helps hair grow and gain color.
research Medication-Induced Repigmentation of Gray Hair: A Systematic Review
Some medications might reverse gray hair, especially those that reduce inflammation or stimulate pigment production, and vitamin B might help.
research Revisiting the Role of Melatonin in Human Melanocyte Physiology: A Skin Context Perspective
Melatonin affects skin and hair color and protects skin cells, with potential benefits for hair growth and skin health.
research Immunology of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, is likely an autoimmune disease with a genetic link, but its exact cause is still unknown.
research Management of Hypotrichosis of the Eyelashes: Focus on Bimatoprost
Bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.03% safely and effectively increases eyelash growth when applied to the upper eyelid.
research Mechanisms of Repigmentation Induced by Photobiomodulation Therapy in Vitiligo
Light therapy using helium-neon lasers can help restore skin color in vitiligo by promoting skin cell growth and movement.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.

research Circulating Testosterone and Feather-Gene Expression of Receptors and Metabolic Enzymes in Relation to Melanin-Based Coloration in the Barn Owl
Barn owls with smaller black spots have higher testosterone levels, which might be due to genetic effects on hormone regulation rather than hormone effects on coloration.
research Therapeutics of Premature Hair Graying: A Long Journey Ahead
Effective treatments for premature hair graying still require significant research.
research Efficacy of an Agonist of α-MSH, the Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-20, in Hair Pigmentation
