WHY do people turn gray? Melanocytes, located in the hair follicle, are responsible for hair color. They synthesize hair pigments, and their combination determines hair color. Indeed, melanocytes themselves are formed from stem cells. As we age, the hair follicles wear down. This is manifested by a decrease in the number of melanocytes in the hair follicles, as well as a decrease in the activity of the remaining melanocytes. @coach #నా favorite hir #hir ##hir new styel
