Brief Answer:
try supplements

Detailed Answer:
Hi, I have read your query and will try to help you

one of the commonest causes of getting grey hair is nutritional deficiency.
the most common nutritional deficiency involved may be iron and vitamin and micronutrients deficiency.
you can either directly try some supplements of multivitamins and minerals.
alternatively, you can go for the testing. If the tests show low levels, then you can proceed for the supplementation accordingly.

also suggest meeting a dermatologist, if not already done so. in dermatology, many conditions are diagnosed on seeing a lesion. That cannot be done online

Best of luck
