Grey hair turning bluish green!

Thanks again all! Interesting from spyder08 - am def going to get the supply checked.

GrAnne...my grand-daughter who was 14 at the time had a similar problem with her hair after moving , with her family, to a very rural location with a private water supply.
It was excessive copper in the water supply. Luckily they were only there for a short time (property was rented) and they moved to their own home.
Definately worth testing for same. Although everyone was using same water she was the only one affected!

Do you use a hair spray - I found that the one I was using turned my hair a very peculiar colour, so changed and everything seems fine now.

Thanks for the test kit link & yes, asked neighbours (none of the others have allowed their hair to go grey but younger - blonde- neighbour hasn't noticed anything. However, we're in a semi- rural location, and our houses aren't adjacent, so may still get mains supply tested in first instance.

If it is the water causing this, there must be others around with grey hair who have also been affected.

You can buy a testing kit here...

Maybe you could pay for a private test inside the house.

Thanks for the reply - they will test the water coming into the house for free but not the internal pipework...

I think you may be able to have your water tested, could you ask your water authority? you might have to pay though.
