My black moustache is turning into very light brown hair

[chiru_hero]

I am 24 year old male. Since my high school ( when i was 14 ), i had a thick black moustache and thick black hair, but i had golden hair on my hands and legs. But when i turned 16, this golden started to disappear and black hair started growing on both my hands and legs. I was very glad it had turned into black hair, but my happiness was short-lived because as i turned 20, my Moustache started turning from black into light brown - first it starts turning into brown from the tip of the hair and then the whole hair turns into light brown. And this discolouring is really taking a big toll right now, the whole of my moustache is looking full brownish. But my hair on my hand is still full black now. Please suggest me some remedy to tackle this problem. I live in hot and humid place where temperature is between 30 - 38 degrees celcius. Please help me. Hoping a quick reply.

Thanks a lot for the reply. But according to your reply, i could understand that it is not a disease but a condition because of different external factors like Genitics, Medication etc. I think i need to go to a doctor right away.Anyways thanks again.

Hi,

Hair growth is affected by several factors including genetics, hormones, environment and diet. In your case, as one grows, the hair undergoes several phases of hair growth. Through these phases, several factors lead to changes in the rate of growth and appearance.

In your family, is brownish or light colored hair more predominant?

Have you been taking any supplement or medications?

Diet may play a role in  hair growth and development. There are certain supplements that one may need to have healthy hair. You may check on the following urls for further reading:

There seems to be no definite treatment for this especially if brown or light colored hair runs in the family. You may discuss this with your dermatologist for more advice.
