Drug stops hair going grey

A wonder pill which is being developed can stop hair from turning grey, a media report said Monday.

Experts at beauty firm L’Oreal claim it will keep your barnet – the hair – the same natural colour forever, The Sun reported.

They promise the daily drug will not be expensive – and is totally natural because it uses a fruit extract.

Bruno Bernard, head of hair biology at the cosmetics giant, said: “People will take it like a dietary supplement. They need to start using the pill before their hair goes grey.”

L’Oreal – which has been developing the drug for more than a decade – says it won’t be available until 2015. And it will take 10 more years before they can prove it works – because it takes that long for grey hairs to sprout, the newspaper said.
