Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM.
I have gone through your query.

The premature hair gray is nothing but a process where the pigment is not being produced from the cells which produces color.
Genetics, vitamins, habits of smoking and lack of proper diet are responsible for grey hair causes.
Vitamin and minerals, especially vitamin B12, zinc and copper are responsible for giving hair its natural color and deficiency of these vitamins and minerals affects the hair color. Smoking and diet especially junk foods or processed food accelerate aging by increasing the oxidative stress, results in loss of hair colors.

I would have suggested to avoid direct sunlight, use of antioxidants, elemental zinc and copper will help to prevent the premature hair graying and apart from that avoid smoking and also avoid stress, try to be relaxed to prevent premature graying of hair.

Medications are not available to reverse the process, it can be prevented. Some home remedies might be useful, like amla oil which is rich in vitamin C and anti-oxidants, it has anti-ageing benefits. Black tea is also said to be effective in treating premature graying of hair.

The only way to turn your hair into black colored is using good brand coloring agent or by regular use of mehandi may have safe effect.

Hope this helps.
Take care.
