Take a look at your hair. Is it dry, yellow, and dull? If so, you need to pay attention because it's not just about personal appearance; it may indicate an internal issue within your body. So why is your hair dry and yellow?
Poor Organ Function
The dryness and yellowness of hair are closely related to the function of internal organs. If the organs in your body are not functioning properly or if there is a deficiency in Qi and blood, it can affect your hair and make it dry.
Nutritional Deficiency
If your body is experiencing long-term malnutrition and lacks vitamins and proteins, your hair will naturally lose its shiny and dark appearance. Additionally, a long-term deficiency in copper can also cause hair to turn yellow. This is because the production of melanin, which gives hair its color, requires an enzyme called "tyrosinase." A lack of copper can affect the activity of this enzyme, thereby affecting the color of the hair.
External Damage
Frequent hair dyeing, perming, and the use of hair dryers can also make hair dry and yellow. Moreover, exposure to ultraviolet radiation and radiation from devices such as computers, radar, and X-rays can damage the hair and cause it to turn yellow.
Functional Yellowing
If the body is excessively fatigued, experiences significant psychological trauma, suffers from seasonal hormonal imbalances, or is exposed to chemical irritants, it can affect the generation of melanocytes in the body, leading to dry and yellow hair.
