POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy5 months agoA. If your daughter's hair is turning white or brown, it could be due to several factors:
Possible Causes Nutritional Deficiency – Lack of iron, vitamin B12, copper, or zinc can cause premature greying or hair discoloration. Genetic Factors – If early greying runs in the family, genetics might be a reason. Excessive Sun Exposure – Too much sun can lighten hair color, making it look brown or white. Scalp Issues – Fungal infections or scalp conditions can sometimes lead to hair discoloration. Chemical Exposure – If using strong shampoos, hair oils, or pool water (chlorine), it may affect hair color. What You Can Do
✔ Balanced Diet – Ensure she eats iron-rich foods (spinach, dates, pomegranate), B12 sources (dairy, eggs), and zinc-rich foods (nuts, lentils).
✔ Coconut & Amla Oil Massage – Helps nourish the scalp and may slow hair whitening.
✔ Use Mild Shampoo – Avoid harsh chemicals; go for baby-friendly or herbal shampoos.
✔ Protect from Sun – Use a cap or scarf if playing outdoors for long.
When to See a Doctor?
🚨 If more white hairs appear rapidly or other health issues like weakness, poor growth, or hair fall occur, consult a pediatrician or dermatologist to check for deficiencies or thyroid issues.
