Hello beautiful ladies,
Hope you all are well. Today, I will be talking about a hair related problem which is called poliosis, or white hair patches. Now imagine, if one day suddenly you see yourself in the mirror with a patch of white hair on your head or any part of your body, it will not be a pleasant incident for you. We all love our hair, our skin, we love ourselves. So white hair patch is obviously one of the worst things that can happen to us any day. This is such a disease that actually can happen to anyone irrespective of their age. I think it?s better to prepare yourself for anything bad so that you can get prevent it or treat it at the earliest. Also, white hair patch is such a thing that can lower anyone?s self-esteem. Basically, this is a small localized patch of white hair that grows in between the regular hair. Usually, it takes place in the streak or forelock at the front of the hairline but sometimes it might occur on any part of the body. As we all know, melanin is the ingredient in our skin, which helps to maintain the natural colour of skin and hair. Depigmentation or discolouration is caused by the lack of melanin in that particular area. That is what causes poliosis as well. In this case, the melanin pigment, which is present at the hair follicle of that particular area, decreases noticeably. So, hair of that area becomes white in colour making it looks very odd, undoubtedly.
