Why Amla + Rust Turns Black When Amla juice touches iron (rust), a chemical reaction happens: Amla = high in Vitamin C + tannins Rust/iron = reacts with tannins ➡️ The mixture becomes black — this is oxidation, not natural pigment. This black colour is NOT melanin (the pigment that makes hair naturally black). It is just a chemical staining reaction, similar to how iron reacts with tea or henna. ⭐ Important: This reaction cannot reverse greying Grey/white hair happens because: Melanocyte cells stop producing melanin. Once these cells stop working, no external product can restart them. So applying Amla + rust cannot make hair: Produce melanin again Become naturally black Reverse greying from the root It may temporarily stain the hair shaft a bit darker like henna does, but: It does NOT convert grey hair to black It is NOT permanent It does NOT fix the cause of greying And rust is NOT safe to apply on the scalp — it can cause infection, metal toxicity, or irritation. ⭐ What Actually Helps Slow Greying (Scientifically & Ayurvedically) ✔ 1. Bhringraj oil Best herb for premature greying. Use 3× per week. ✔ 2. Amla oil or Amla powder (without rust) Strengthens hair and slows new greys. ✔ 3. Internal Amla or Vitamin C Supports antioxidant levels → slows greying. ✔ 4. Amla + Bhringraj + Brahmi hair mask Good for hair health but does not reverse greys. ✔ 5. Reduce stress, correct thyroid, improve nutrition Greying is strongly linked to: Stress Iron deficiency B12 deficiency Thyroid changes ⭐ What CAN reverse grey hair? Only: ✔ Hair dyes / herbal colours (henna + indigo) These can make grey hair appear black or dark brown — externally, NOT naturally. There is no juice, oil, or herb that can turn grey hair into natural black permanently.
