All natural hair colors are the result of two types of hair pigment. Both of these pigments are melanin types, produced inside the hair follicle and packed into granules found in the fibers.
Eumelanin is the dominant pigment in dark-blond, brown hair, and black hair, while pheomelanin is dominant in red hair.
Blond hair is the result of having little pigmentation in the hair strand.
Gray hair occurs when melanin production decreases or stops.
