Can someone explain to me why there are difference in humans hair color? Why black and blond and brown and red only? Why not green?
People have different hair colors because of the amount and type of pigment called melanin in their hair follicles. The more melanin, the darker the hair color will be.
Yes, hair color can change over time due to a variety of factors such as hormonal changes, aging, and exposure to chemicals or environmental factors.
Yes, hair color is determined by genetics. The genes you inherit from your parents determine the amount and type of melanin in your hair follicles, which ultimately determines your hair color.
Natural highlights or lowlights occur when the amount of melanin in certain areas of the hair follicles is different from the rest, resulting in a variation of hair color. This can also be influenced by exposure to sunlight.
Yes, hair color can be artificially changed through the use of hair dyes or bleaching agents. These products chemically alter the amount and type of melanin in the hair follicles to achieve a desired hair color.
